چکیده

Radioligand binding studies of the cardiac arginine vasopressin (AVP) receptor, together with studies on the AVP-evoked alterations in the [Ca2+1i levels, were undertaken using primary cultures of neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Rapid, reversible, specific, high-affinity and lowcapacity binding sites were detected for the agonist, [3H]AVP, and the V1 selective antagonist, d(CH2)5 Tyr (Me)-[3H]AVP (V, antagonist), radioligands. The V2 selective antagonist radioligand, d(CH2)5 D-Ile Ile des-Gly NH2-[3H]AVP, showed very little binding even at very high concentrations. [3H]AVP and [3H]V1 antagonist specific binding attained equilibrium in 10 minutes at 37°C. The Kd and Bmax values (mean±SEM) were [3H]AVP: Kd 1.44±0.18 nM; Bmax 5,253±590 sites/cell; [3H]V1 antagonist: Kd 0.96±0.10 nM; Bmax 6,869±485 sites/cell. KI values for a series of AVP-related peptide analogues and antagonists determined by competitive inhibition of [3H]AVP binding were consistent with the saturation data. The results suggest that these cells possess a homogeneous population of V1 subtype AVP receptors. AVP increased [Ca21]1 in a concentration-dependent manner as judged by fura-2 fluorescence. This was completely attenuated by inclusion of the V, antagonist. The maximal increase in [Ca21]1 evoked by AVP from a resting level of 60±5 nM was less (250±35 nM) in comparison to the maximal response evoked by angiotensin II (2,337±640 nM). However, the EC50 value for AVP (0.8±0.2 nM)-evoked increase in [Ca2"]i was significantly lower than that for angiotensin II (2.3±0.9 nM). Thus, the identification of V1 receptors coupled to increases in myocyte [Ca2+]j appears to provide, at the cellular level, a direct role for AVP in the regulation of contractility of neonatal rat cardiomyocytes.

Buckwheat Rutin Inhibits AngII-induced Cardiomyocyte Hypertrophy via Blockade of CaN-dependent Signal Pathway

Buckwheat rutin has been found to be able to inhibit angiotensin II (AngII) - induced hypertrophy in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, but the mechanism remains uncertain. In this study, myocardial hypertrophy model was made by adding AngII to the medium of cardiac myocytes of neonatal rats, meanwhile, different concentrations of buckwheat rutin were applied to observe their effects.

Calcium and prostaglandin E2 in renomedullary interstitial cells.

Renomedullary interstitial cells cultured from the Dahl salt-resistant rat have higher levels of basal cytosolic calcium and prostaglandin E2 and are more responsive to vasopressin than interstitial cells from the Dahl salt-sensitive rat. We examined the potential role of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis in mediating these differences. Vasopressin-induced increases in labeled inositol phosphate...

Pancreastatin increases free cytosolic Ca2+ in rat hepatocytes, involving both pertussis-toxin-sensitive and -insensitive mechanisms.

Freshly isolated rat hepatocytes, loaded with the Ca2+ probe Fluo-3, responded to homologous pancreastatin with a sudden increase in free cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) as well as glucose release. Addition of rat pancreastatin (0.1 microM) to hepatocytes resulted in an increase in [Ca2+]i from 150 nM to 700 nM, which declined back to nearly basal values within 2-3 min. Half-maximal and maximal effect...
