Effects of vasodilatory beta-adrenoceptor antagonists on endothelium-derived nitric oxide release in rat kidney.

چکیده
The mechanisms for the vascular actions of vasodilatory beta-blockers remain undetermined. For some kinds of beta-blockers, the involvement of nitric oxide (NO) has been suggested. We studied the effects of vasodilatory beta-blockers on renal perfusion pressure (RPP) and NO release in the rat kidney. Infusion of bopindolol, celiprolol, and nebivolol caused a dose-dependent reduction in RPP and an increase in NO release (RPP: bopindolol 10(-6) mol/L, -23+/-2%; celiprolol 10(-4) mol/L, -27+/-2%; nebivolol 10(-5) mol/L, -35+/-3%; NO: bopindolol 10(-6) mol/L, +33+/-2; celiprolol 10(-4) mol/L, +41+/-2; nebivolol 10(-5) mol/L, +45+/-5 fmol. min-1. g kidney-1, mean+/-SEM). Metergoline (10(-6) mol/L), a 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)1/2 antagonist, or NAN-190 (10(-6) mol/L), a 5-HT1A antagonist, almost completely abolished the vasorelaxation and NO release caused by bopindolol, celiprolol, and nebivolol. However, neither propranolol nor bisoprolol decreased RPP. Celiprolol and nebivolol caused vasodilation in the rat thoracic aorta, and it was markedly reduced by endothelial denudation, Nomega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (10(-4) mol/L), or NAN-190 (10(-6) mol/L). In deoxycorticosterone acetate-salt hypertensive rats, 4-week administration of celiprolol (50 mg. kg-1. d-1 IV) restored the responses regarding RPP and NO release to acetylcholine. These results suggest that several beta-blockers exert their vasodilatory action through the 5-HT1A receptor/NO pathway and that treatment with these beta-blockers may protect against endothelial injury in hypertension.

INFLUENCE OF ENDO THELIUM REMOVAL AND LNAME ON RESPONSES OF RAT COMMON CAROTID ARTERY TO α-ADRENOCEPTOR AGONISTS
In this study we investigated the effects of endothelium removal and L-NAME on responses to α-adrenoceptor agonists. Male Wistar rats were killed by overdose with pentobarbitone sodium, after which the left and right common carotid arteries were removed. Rings of arteries 3-4 mm in length were cut from each vessel and then mounted in 10 mL isolated organ bath, bathed in Krebs maintained at ...

Introduction: In recent study both endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent mechanisms have been reported for the action of β-adrenoceptor. The aim of this study was to investigate on the role of nitric oxide (NO) and cyclic guanosin monophosphate (cGMP) in vasodilation mechanisms of β2-adrenoceptors (β2-AR) in rat skin vessels. Methods: All drugs were injected subcutaneous into p...
