Investigation of alpha1-adrenoceptor subtypes mediating vasoconstriction in rabbit cutaneous resistance arteries.
1. Cutaneous resistance arteries (c.r.a.) (internal diameter=240.94+/-5.42 microm, n=67/25 (number arteries/number animals)) from New Zealand white rabbits were mounted in wire myographs and a normalization procedure followed. 2. Cumulative concentration-response curves (CCRCs) were constructed for the alpha-adrenoceptor agonists noradrenaline (NA), (R)A61603 and phenylephrine (PE) in the prese...
متن کاملEffects of aging on alpha1-adrenoceptor mechanisms in the isolated mouse aortic preparation.
The effects of aging on alpha(1)-adrenoceptor (alpha(1)-AR)-mediated contractile response in endothelium-removed aortic preparations isolated from 5- to 40-week-old (5-, 6-, 8-, 10-, 20-, 40-weeks) mice were studied in the presence of propranolol. The potency of noradrenaline, estimated as its pD(2) value, increased with age from 5- to 10-weeks, but decreased thereafter with age from 10- to 40-...
متن کاملMurine alpha1-adrenoceptor subtypes. I. Radioligand binding studies.
Alpha1-adrenoceptors were identified in murine tissues by [3H]prazosin saturation binding studies, with a rank order of cerebral cortex > cerebellum > liver > lung > kidney > heart > spleen, with the spleen not exhibiting detectable expression. Competition binding studies were performed with 5-methylurapidil, BMY 7378, methoxamine, (+)-niguldipine, noradrenaline, SB 216469 and tamsulosin. On th...
متن کاملRole of spinal alpha1-adrenoceptor subtypes in the bladder reflex in anesthetized rats.
The contribution of different subtypes of alpha1-adrenoceptors in the lumbosacral spinal cord to the control of the urinary bladder was examined in urethane-anesthetized rats. Bladder pressure was recorded via a transurethral catheter under isovolumetric conditions. Drugs were administered intrathecally at the L6-S1 segmental level of spinal cord. RS-100329 (an alpha1A-antagonist) in doses of 2...
متن کاملAlpha1-adrenoceptor-dependent vascular hypertrophy and remodeling in murine hypoxic pulmonary hypertension.
Excessive proliferation of vascular wall cells underlies the development of elevated vascular resistance in hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (PH), but the responsible mechanisms remain unclear. Growth-promoting effects of catecholamines may contribute. Hypoxemia causes sympathoexcitation, and prolonged stimulation of alpha(1)-adrenoceptors (alpha(1)-ARs) induces hypertrophy and hyperplasia of art...
