A new ATP-sensitive potassium channel opener protects endothelial function in cultured aortic endothelial cells.
OBJECTIVE Endothelial dysfunction is an early risk factor for cardiovascular disease and hypertension. Mechanisms that participate in endothelial dysfunction include reduced nitric oxide (NO) generation and increased endothelin-1 (ET-1) generation. Endothelial ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels are responsible for maintaining the resting potential of endothelial cells and modulating the ...
متن کاملBovine Aortic Endothelial Cells
As bstract. We examined the effect of bovine aortic endothelial cell culture supernatants upon the generation of procoagulant activity by human blood monocytes. Confluent endothelial monolayers were cultured for up to 96 h. At timed intervals, culture supernatants were collected and incubated for 5 h with lipopolysaccharide-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The procoagulant a...
متن کاملATP release through connexin hemichannels in corneal endothelial cells.
PURPOSE Intercellular Ca(2+) wave propagation is a distinct form of cell-cell communication. In corneal endothelial cells, intercellular Ca(2+) wave propagation evoked by a point mechanical stimulus (PMS) is partially mediated by adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release and subsequent activation of P2Y receptors. This study was conducted to investigate the possibility that extrajunctional connexons...
متن کاملVesicular exocytosis contributes to volume-sensitive ATP release in biliary cells.
Extracellular ATP is a potent autocrine/paracrine signal that regulates a broad range of liver functions through activation of purinergic receptors. In biliary epithelium, increases in cell volume stimulate ATP release through a phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-kinase)-dependent mechanism. Because PI3-kinase also regulates vesicular exocytosis, the purpose of these studies was to determine whethe...
متن کاملFundamental role of ClC-3 in volume-sensitive Cl- channel function and cell volume regulation in AGS cells.
Volume regulation is essential for cell function, but it is unknown which channels are involved in a regulatory volume decrease (RVD) in human gastric epithelial cells. Exposure to a hypotonic solution caused the increase in AGS cell volume, followed by the activation of a current. The reversal potential of the swelling-induced current suggested that Cl- was the primary charge carrier. The sele...
