Coronary myogenic constriction antagonizes EDHF-mediated dilation: role of KCa channels.
In hypertension, pressure-induced myogenic constriction and impaired endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF)-mediated dilation may contribute to increased vasomotor tone. Myogenic constriction as well as EDHF-mediated dilation may share common signaling mechanisms, and both may control KCa channel activity to set arterial tone. To investigate a potential relation between the 2 mechani...
متن کاملAltered myogenic constriction and EDHF-mediated relaxation in small mesenteric arteries of hypertensive subtotally nephrectomized rats
Objectives: Chronic renal failure (CRF) is associated with altered systemic arterial tone and hypertension. Myogenic constriction and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF)-dependent relaxation represent major vasoregulatory mechanisms in small systemic arteries. Elevated myogenic response and impaired EDHF might participate in the development of essential hypertension, however their...
متن کاملMyogenic constriction and dilation of isolated lymphatic vessels.
We tested the hypothesis that lymphatics would exhibit myogenic constrictions and dilations to intraluminal pressure changes. Collecting lymphatic vessels were isolated from rat mesentery, cannulated, and pressurized for in vitro study. The lymphatic diameter responses to controlled intraluminal pressure steps of different magnitudes were tested in the absence and presence of the inflammatory m...
متن کاملAcetylcholine stimulated dilatation and stretch induced myogenic constriction in mesenteric artery of rats with chronic heart failure.
Rats with chronic heart failure (CHF) develop increased myogenic constriction in mesenteric resistance arteries. Here we investigated increased myogenic constriction in relation to alterations in EDHF- and NO-mediated dilatation in CHF-rats. Male Spraque-Dawley rats were subjected to myocardial-infarction or sham-surgery. At 9-10 weeks after surgery, isolated mesenteric artery ring preparations...
متن کاملOpposing effects of shear-mediated dilation and myogenic constriction on artery diameter in response to handgrip exercise in humans.
While the impact of changes in blood flow and shear stress on artery function are well documented, the acute effects of increases in arterial pressure are less well described in humans. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of 30 min of elevated blood pressure, in the absence of changes in shear stress or sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activation, on conduit artery diameter. Ten heal...
