Early increases in renal kallikrein secretion on administration of potassium or ATP-sensitive potassium channel blockers in rats.
1 This study aimed to examine whether administration of potassium or ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP channel) blockers caused early increases in renal kallikrein (KK) secretion. To clarify this mechanism, the effect on renal KK secretion of a KATP channel blocker was compared with the effect resulting from use of an osmotic diuretic or volume load. Furthermore, the effect on potassium-ind...
متن کاملEffect of ATP-Dependent K+ Channel Openers and Blockers on Serum Concentration of Aldosterone in Rats
There are many reports for involvement of ATP-sensitive potassium channels in pancreatic, cardiac and vascular smooth muscle cells. This study examined the effect of single doses of K+ channel openers diazoxide, minoxidil and K+ channel blockers chlorpropamide, glibenclamide on serum concentration of aldosterone in male rats. Blood samples were obtained 60 minutes after drug treatment and serum...
متن کاملATP-sensitive potassium channelopathies: focus on insulin secretion.
ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels, so named because they are inhibited by intracellular (ATP), play key physiological roles in many tissues. In pancreatic beta cells, these channels regulate glucose-dependent insulin secretion and serve as the target for sulfonylurea drugs used to treat type 2 diabetes. This review focuses on insulin secretory disorders, such as congenital hyperinsuline...
متن کاملAnti-nociceptive effect of cimetidine in mice: the role of ATP-sensitive potassium channels
Recent studies have shown that intracerebroventricular administration of cimetidine (CIM) induces anti-nociceptive and anti–inflammatory effects in rats. However, the underlying mechanism of CIM effect has not been determined yet. This study was planned to determine the anti-nociceptive effect of CIM (50 mg/kg, i.p.) in male mice (25-30 g, n = 80) using tail flick test. Also, the role of ATP-se...
متن کاملThe role of ATP-sensitive potassium channel blockers in ischemia-reperfusion-induced renal injury versus their effects on cardiac ischemia reperfusion in rats.
In renal ischemia reperfusion (V/R), opening of adenosine-triphosphate (ATP)-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels results in massive influx of neutrophils in both renal and lung tissues. Our study was focused on the role of ATP-dependent potassium channel modulators, glimepiride and glibenclamide on I/R induced renal injury in rats. Additionally we evaluated their effects on normal heart and o...
