Unitary TRPV3 channel Ca2+ influx events elicit endothelium-dependent dilation of cerebral parenchymal arterioles.
Cerebral parenchymal arterioles (PA) regulate blood flow between pial arteries on the surface of the brain and the deeper microcirculation. Regulation of PA contractility differs from that of pial arteries and is not completely understood. Here, we investigated the hypothesis that the Ca(2+) permeable vanilloid transient receptor potential (TRPV) channel TRPV3 can mediate endothelium-dependent ...
متن کاملBilateral common carotid artery stenosis in normotensive rats impairs endothelium-dependent dilation of parenchymal arterioles.
Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion is a risk factor for cognitive impairment. Reduced blood flow through the common carotid arteries induced by bilateral carotid artery stenosis (BCAS) is a physiologically relevant model of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion. We hypothesized that BCAS in 20-wk-old Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats would impair cognitive function and lead to reduced endothelium-dependent dilation...
متن کاملHistamine elicits competing endothelium-dependent constriction and endothelium-independent dilation in vivo in mouse cerebral arterioles.
We used television microscopy and an image-splitting technique to monitor the changes in diameter produced by histamine applied locally to mouse pial arterioles in vivo. A high dose (50 micrograms/ml, 3 X 10(-4) M) of histamine constricted the arterioles, whereas lower doses (20 and 10 micrograms/ml) relaxed them. Constriction was blocked and dilation occurred when selective injury of the endot...
متن کاملEndothelium-dependent cerebral artery dilation mediated by TRPA1 and Ca2+-Activated K+ channels.
Although it is well established that changes in endothelial intracellular [Ca(2+)] regulate endothelium-dependent vasodilatory pathways, the molecular identities of the ion channels responsible for Ca(2+) influx in these cells are not clearly defined. The sole member of the ankyrin (A) transient receptor potential (TRP) subfamily, TRPA1, is a Ca(2+)-permeable nonselective cation channel activat...
متن کاملEndothelium-dependent constriction demonstrated in vivo in mouse cerebral arterioles.
Endothelium-dependent constriction in mouse pial arterioles was demonstrated by testing contractile responses before and after endothelial injury. All responses were monitored at the same site as the injury. Injury was produced in vivo by exposing an arteriole on the brain surface to the beam of a 6-mW helium-neon laser after first sensitizing the microvascular bed to the laser energy by inject...
