The effects of experimental uremia in rats on duodenal VIP levels and the interaction of VIP with duodenal epithelial cells.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effects of experimental uremia on the concentration of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) in duodenum as well as on the interaction of this neuropeptide with the corresponding epithelial cells were studied in rats. Duodenal VIP concentration was significantly decreased in uremic rats as compared to control animals. The specific binding of VIP to duodenal epithelial cells increased in rats with uremia due to an increase in the number of VIP receptors rather than a change in the binding affinity or in the extent of VIP degradation. On the other hand, the efficacy but not the potency of VIP upon cyclic AMP generation varied in parallel to that observed at the receptor level.

متن کاملInteraction between neurokinin A, VIP, prostanoids, and enteric nerves in regulation of duodenal function.
Neurokinin A (NKA) induces duodenal motility and increases mucosal permeability and bicarbonate secretion in the in situ perfused duodenum in anesthetized rats. In the present study, the NKA-induced increase in mucosal permeability was potentiated by luminal perfusion with lidocaine and diminished by vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) but unaltered by elevated intraluminal pressure. Elevation ...

Introduction: Nitric oxide (NO), as a free radical, involves in several physiologic functions in GI tract such as nerve impulse transmission and vascular tonicity regulation. Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) is the enzyme for the production of NO from L-Arginine which in turn inhibits by L-NGNitroarginine Methyl Ester (L-NAME). In the current work, we aimed to evaluate morphometric analysis of...

Objective: The protective effect of silymarin (SMN) on mycophenolate mofetil (MMF)–induced duodenal disorders was investigated. Materials and Methods: Forty-two Wistar rats were assigned to seven groups including control and test groups. The control animals received saline and the test animals were treated with MMF (30 mg/kg, orally) and saline, MMF and SMN (25, 50, and 100 mg/kg, orally), MMF ...
