چکیده
The present study was designed to investigate whether in vivo and in vitro erythropoietin (EPO) production is modulated by nitric oxide (NO) and cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP). Serum levels of EPO in ex-hypoxic polycythemic mice were significantly increased after injections of 200 micrograms/kg sodium nitroprusside for 4 d. One injection of NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) produced a significant dose-related decrease in serum levels of EPO in ex-hypoxic polycythemic mice in response to hypoxia. When EPO producing Hep3B cells were incubated in 1% O2 for 30 min, cGMP levels in the Hep3B cells were significantly elevated, compared with cells incubated in 20% O2. The elevation of cGMP by hypoxia was inhibited by L-NAME (100 microM). Sodium nitroprusside (10 and 100 microM) and NO (2 microM) also significantly increased cGMP levels in Hep3B cells. L-NAME, LY 83583 (6-Anilino-5,8-quinolinedione, a soluble guanylate cyclase inhibitor), and Rp-8-Bromo-cGMPS (Rp-8-Bromo-guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphothioate, a cGMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor) significantly inhibited the hypoxia-induced increase in medium levels of EPO in Hep3B cells. 8-Bromo-cGMPS produced a dose-dependent decrease in EPO messenger RNA levels in Hep3B cells in response to hypoxia. 8-Bromo-cGMP (10(-3) M) produced significant increases in medium levels of EPO in Hep3B cell cultures incubated under normoxic conditions, which was enhanced by the phosphodiesterase inhibitor, 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (0.2 mM). These results suggest that NO and cGMP may interact in modulating hypoxic stimulation of EPO production.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the peripheral antinociception effects of specificphosphodiesterase 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor vardenafil on carrageenan-induced nociception in rats,and the role of calcium besides the L-arginine- nitric oxide (NO)- cyclic guanosine monophophate(cGMP) pathway in these effects. Hyperalgesia was induced by the intraplantar injection of 0.1mL fresh carrageenan solut...

متن کاملErythropoietin and hypoxia stimulate erythropoietin receptor and nitric oxide production by endothelial cells.
Erythropoietin (EPO), a hypoxia-inducible cytokine, is required for survival, proliferation, and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells. EPO can also stimulate proliferation and angiogenesis of endothelial cells that express EPO receptors (EPORs). In this study we investigated the EPO response of vascular endothelial cells at reduced oxygen tension (5% and 2%), in particular the effect o...
