Shear stress increases nitric oxide production in thick ascending limbs.
We showed that luminal flow stimulates nitric oxide (NO) production in thick ascending limbs. Ion delivery, stretch, pressure, and shear stress all increase when flow is enhanced. We hypothesized that shear stress stimulates NO in thick ascending limbs, whereas stretch, pressure, and ion delivery do not. We measured NO in isolated, perfused rat thick ascending limbs using the NO-sensitive dye D...
متن کاملExtracellular ATP stimulates NO production in rat thick ascending limb.
NO produced by NO synthase (NOS) 3 acts as an autacoid to regulate NaCl absorption in the thick ascending limb. ATP induces NO production by NOS 3 in endothelial cells. We hypothesized that extracellular ATP activates NOS in thick ascending limbs through P2 receptors. To test this, we measured intracellular NO production using the NO-selective fluorescent dye DAF-2 in suspensions of rat medulla...
متن کاملCellular stretch increases superoxide production in the thick ascending limb.
Superoxide (O(2)(-)) is an important regulator of kidney function. We have recently shown that luminal flow stimulates O(2)(-) production in the thick ascending limb (TAL), attributable in part to mechanical factors. Stretch, pressure and shear stress all change when flow increases in the TAL. We hypothesized that stretch rather than shear stress or pressure per se stimulates O(2)(-) production...
متن کاملA high-salt diet dissociates NO synthase-3 expression and NO production by the thick ascending limb.
NO produced by endothelial NO synthase (NOS3) decreases sodium transport by the thick ascending limb (THAL). We found previously that 7 days of high salt (HS) increased THAL-NOS3 expression but not NO production. NOS3 phosphorylation regulates enzyme activity. We hypothesized that HS acutely increases NOS3 expression and NO production, and, over time, changes in NOS3 phosphorylation dissociate ...
متن کاملResveratrol Increases Nitric Oxide Production in the Rat Thick Ascending Limb via Ca2+/Calmodulin
The thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle reabsorbs 30% of the NaCl filtered through the glomerulus. Nitric oxide (NO) produced by NO synthase 3 (NOS3) inhibits NaCl absorption by this segment. Resveratrol, a polyphenol, has beneficial cardiovascular and renal effects, many of which are mediated by NO. Resveratrol increases intracellular Ca2+ (Cai) and AMP kinase (AMPK) and NAD-dependent de...
