We hypothesized that activation of angiogenesis by chronic hypoxia may affect vascular resistance and, subsequently, blood pressure levels in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). Five-week-old prehypertensive SHRs and age-matched normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats (n=8 per group) were maintained under normobaric normoxic or hypoxic (10% O(2)) conditions for 8 weeks. Three weeks later, the ...
The mechanism of action of halothane is not fully understood in pulmonary circulation and especially in chronic hypertension models. As the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) pulmonary vasoconstrictor response increases in chronic hypoxic rat, halothane could differentially attenuate this vasoconstriction response on normoxic and chronic hypoxic rats. The effect of halothane on 5-HT-induced contraction...
We hypothesized that increased myofibrillar type 1 protein phosphatase (PP1) catalytic activity contributes to impaired aortic smooth muscle contraction after hypoxia. Our results show that inhibition of PP1 activity with microcystin-LR (50 nmol/l) or okadaic acid (100 nmol/l) increased phenylephrine- and KCl-induced contraction to a greater extent in aortic rings from rats exposed to hypoxia (...
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is a master transcription factor that controls cellular homeostasis. Although its activation benefits normal tissue, HIF-1 activation in tumors is a major risk factor for angiogenesis, therapeutic resistance, and poor prognosis. HIF-1 activity is usually suppressed under normoxic conditions because of rapid oxygen-dependent degradation of HIF-1a. Here, we show...
Hyperoxic exposure enhances airway reactivity in newborn animals, possibly due to altered relaxation. We sought to define the role of prostaglandinand nitric oxide-mediated mechanisms in impaired airway relaxation induced by hyperoxic stress. We exposed 7-day-old rat pups to either room air or hyperoxia (>95% O2) for 7 days to assess airway relaxation and cAMP and cGMP production after electric...
A periodic increase in blood pressure (BP) occurs during apneic episodes in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Several factors including hypoxemia and an increase in heart rate (HR) were reported to be responsible for this increased BP. To examine the contribution of these two factors in increasing BP, 35 healthy male subjects (mean age±SD= 23.64±3.80) were studied in three experi...

background: alveolar hypoxia induces monophasic pulmonary vasoconstriction in vivo, biphasic vasoconstriction in the isolated pulmonary artery, and controversial responses in the isolated perfused lung. pulmonary vascular responses to sustained alveolar hypoxia have not been addressed in the isolated perfused rat lung. in this study, we investigated the effect of sustained hypoxic ventilation o...
