Mechanism of endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation evoked by lysophosphatidylcholine.
Vasorelaxation induced by lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) and platelet activating factor (PAF) was examined in rings isolated from rat aorta and mesenteric artery. LPC caused dose-dependent vasodilatation, which was sensitive to CV-6209, a PAF antagonist, and NG-monomethyl-L-arginine, a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, but insensitive to indomethacin. PAF (10(-7)M) caused a tachyphylactic effect ...
متن کاملAcyl Chain-Dependent Effect of Lysophosphatidylcholine on Endothelium-Dependent Vasorelaxation
Previously we identified palmitoyl-, oleoyl-, linoleoyl-, and arachidonoyl-lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC 16:0, 18:1, 18:2 and 20:4) as the most prominent LPC species generated by endothelial lipase (EL). In the present study, we examined the impact of those LPC on acetylcholine (ACh)- induced vascular relaxation. All tested LPC attenuated ACh-induced relaxation, measured ex vivo, using mouse aor...
متن کاملHydrogen sulfide and endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation.
In addition to nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), synthesized enzymatically from l-cysteine or l-homocysteine, is the third gasotransmitter in mammals. Endogenous H2S is involved in the regulation of many physiological processes, including vascular tone. Although initially it was suggested that in the vascular wall H2S is synthesized only by smooth muscle cells and relaxe...
متن کاملMechanism of the endothelium-dependent relaxation evoked by a grape seed extract.
GSEs (grape seed extracts) which contain polyphenolic compounds cause an endothelium-dependent relaxation of blood vessels. The aim of the present study was to examine the mechanisms involved in this response. A well-characterized GSE was applied to rabbit aortic rings suspended in organ baths containing Krebs-Henseleit buffer maintained at 37 degrees C. In aortic rings pre-contacted with norad...
متن کاملPhysical conditioning can modulate endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation in rabbits.
To investigate whether exercise training can modulate endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation, male New Zealand White rabbits were divided into either control or training groups. The training animals were trained on a treadmill with a running speed of 0.88 km/hr on a 0 degree grade for 10-60 minutes/day, 5 days/week for 8 weeks. After exercise training, the resting heart rate was lowered (p < 0.05...
