Inhibition of endothelium-derived relaxing factor enhances myocardial stunning in conscious dogs.
BACKGROUND Impaired endothelial-dependent vascular responses after coronary artery occlusion (CAO) and reperfusion (CAR) have been investigated extensively. However, it is not known whether impaired endogenous endothelium-derived relaxing factor production affects postischemic myocardial dysfunction, ie, myocardial stunning. METHODS AND RESULTS Eight dogs were instrumented with an intracorona...
متن کاملEndothelium-Derived Relaxing Factor
The vascular effects of endothelin-1 (ET) in humans were investigated by brachial artery infusions of ET into 25 healthy volunteers. Forearm blood flow increased from a mean±SD value of 2.3± 1.5 to 2.5± 1.5 ml/min/100 ml forearm tissue (n=25, p<0.05) in response to low dose (0.5 ng/min/100 ml forearm tissue) ET infusion and decreased to 1.78±1.3 and 1.1±0.9 ml/min/100 ml forearm tissue (p<0.001...
متن کاملThe Possible Involvement of Nitric Oxide/Endothelium Derived Relaxing Factor in Atropine-Induced Vasorelaxation
Atropine has been used to block cholinergic neurotransmission in basic research. Large doses of atropine cause vasodilation of the blood vessels in the skin. This effect is apparently unconnected with the antimuscarinic activity of atropine and seems to be due to a direct action on the blood vessels. It has been suggested that atropine blocks muscarinic receptors at low doses and it induces th...
متن کاملEndothelium-derived vascular relaxing factor.
A large number and variety of compounds (acetylcholine, adenosine diphosphate, adenosine triphosphate, arachidonic acid, bradykinin, Ca2+ ionophores, calcitonin gene-related peptide, histamine, hydralazine, substance P, thrombin, and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide) have been shown to relax arterial smooth muscle indirectly. The endothelium in muscular arteries from several species appears to...
متن کاملTV-Acetylcysteine Potentiates Platelet Inhibition by Endothelium-Derived Relaxing Factor
Recent evidence suggests that endothelium-derived relaxing factor exhibits properties of nitric oxide. Like nitric oxide, it inhibits platelet function and mediates its effects by elevating intracellular cyclic GMP. In this study we have investigated the role of reduced thiol in the mechanism of action of endothelium-derived relaxing factor on platelets. Bovine aortic endothelial cells were gro...
