Removal of the endothelium potentiates canine large coronary artery constrictor responses to 5-hydroxytryptamine in vivo.
Recent studies in isolated epicardial coronary artery rings have shown that the endothelium modulates vasomotor responses to certain endogenous neurohumoral agents. It is not known whether the endothelium plays a role in large coronary vasoregulation in the intact coronary circulation. Accordingly, we examined effects of endothelial removal on vasoconstrictor responses of the proximal coronary ...
متن کاملCoronary artery disease diagnosis by analysis of ECG depolarization.
For both men and women, coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in industrialized countries. CAD often shows atypical patterns in women, which makes its diagnosis particularly challenging, and in many instances misleading. Accurate CAD diagnosis is essential to provide appropriate treatment and increase the chances of positive outcome. Traditional non-invasive techniques for...
متن کاملAugmented Agonist-induced Ca2+-Sensitization of Coronary Artery Contraction in Genetically Hypertensive Rats
The Ca2" responsiveness of vascular smooth muscle myofilaments is not unique: it is increased during neuro-humoral activation and decreased during /3-adrenergic stimulation. In this study we tested whether an augmented Ca2" responsiveness of smooth muscle myofilaments may contribute to the increased coronary tone observed in hypertension using /3-escin-permeabilized coronary arteries from 3-mo-...
متن کاملCanine Model of Coronary Artery Thrombosis
Platelet thrombus formation occurs at sites of severe arterial narrowing where shear stress is elevated. Shear stress appears to induce platelet aggregation in vitro by means of initiation of von Willebrand factor binding to platelet glycoprotein lb. Recent in vitro studies have demonstrated that aurintricarboxylic acid can inhibit shear stress-induced platelet aggregation. This effect is media...
متن کاملMembrane currents in canine bronchial artery and their regulation by excitatory agonists.
The bronchial vasculature plays an important role in airway physiology and pathophysiology. We investigated the ion currents in canine bronchial smooth muscle cells using patch-clamp techniques. Sustained outward K(+) current evoked by step depolarizations was significantly inhibited by tetraethylamonium (1 and 10 mM) or by charybdotoxin (10(-6) M) but was not significantly affected by 4-aminop...
