Pulmonary Artery Are Mediated by Thromboxane A2
This study was designed to characterize the endothelium-dependent contracting factor (EDCF) released by arachidonic acid (AA) and methacholine (MeCH) in the rabbit pulmonary artery. AA and MeCH contract the rabbit pulmonary artery; however, the effects of both are blocked by denuding the vessels and by administration of indomethacin (a cyclooxygenase inhibitor), dazoxiben (a thromboxane [TX] sy...
متن کاملAdenosine produces pulmonary vasoconstriction in sheep. Evidence for thromboxane A2/prostaglandin endoperoxide-receptor activation.
Adenosine, an intermediate product in the metabolism of ATP, is thought to produce vasodilation in all vascular beds with the exception of the kidney. Due to its theoretical potential as a pulmonary vasodilator, we studied the hemodynamic effects of adenosine in the pulmonary vasculature of chronically instrumented awake sheep. Adenosine produced significant pulmonary vasoconstriction instead o...
متن کاملThromboxane A2-induced inhibition of voltage-gated K+ channels and pulmonary vasoconstriction: role of protein kinase Czeta.
Voltage-gated K+ channels (KV) and thromboxane A2 (TXA2) play critical roles in controlling pulmonary arterial tone under physiological and pathological conditions. We hypothesized that TXA2 might inhibit KV channels, thereby establishing a link between these two major pathogenic pathways in pulmonary hypertension. The TXA2 analogue U46619 inhibited IK(V) (Emax=56.1+/-3.9%, EC50=0.054+/-0.019 m...

متن کاملCellular mechanisms of thromboxane A2-mediated contraction in pulmonary veins.
Our objectives were to identify the relative contributions of [Ca2+]i and myofilament Ca2+ sensitivity in the pulmonary venous smooth muscle (PVSM) contractile response to the thromboxane A2 mimetic U-46619 and to assess the roles of PKC, tyrosine kinases (TK), and Rho-kinase (ROK) in that response. We tested the hypothesis that U-46619-induced contraction in PVSM is mediated by both increases ...
