Myogenic vasoconstriction of the renal afferent arteriole contributes to the autoregulation of renal blood flow, glomerular filtration rate, and glomerular capillary pressure (PGC). The reactivity of the afferent arteriole to pressure and the efficiency of PGC control are subject to physiological and pathophysiological alterations, but the determinants of the myogenic response of this vessel ar...
Gender differences in the incidence of stroke and migraine appear to be related to circulating levels of estrogen; however, the underlying mechanisms are not yet understood. Using resistance-sized arteries pressurized in vitro, we have found that myogenic tone of rat cerebral arteries differs between males and females. This difference appears to result from estrogen enhancement of endothelial n...
Myogenesis is facilitated by four myogenic regulatory factors and is significantly inhibited by myostatin. The objective of the current study was to examine embryonic gene regulation of myostatin/myogenic regulatory factors, and subsequent manipulations of protein synthesis, in broiler embryos under induced hyperammonemia. Broiler eggs were injected with ammonium acetate solution four times ove...
Aging diminishes myogenic tone in arterioles from skeletal muscle. Recent evidence indicates that both large-conductance Ca2+-activated (BKCa) and voltage-dependent (KV) K+ channels mediate negative feedback control of the myogenic response. Thus we tested the hypothesis that aging increases the contributions of KV and BKCa channels to myogenic regulation of vascular tone. Because myogenic resp...
Nonselective inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) synthase (NOS) augments myogenic autoregulation, an action that implies enhancement of pressure-induced constriction and dilatation. This pattern is not explained solely by interaction with a vasoconstrictor pathway. To test involvement of the Rho-Rho kinase pathway in modulation of autoregulation by NO, the selective Rho kinase inhibitor Y-27632 and...
It is unknown whether generalized vascular dysfunction precedes the development of kidney disease. Therefore, we studied myogenic constriction and endothelium-mediated dilatory responses in two inbred Fawn-Hooded (FH) rat strains, one of which spontaneously develops hypertension, proteinuria, and glomerulosclerosis (FHH), whereas the other (FHL) does not. Small renal, mesenteric resistance arte...
Myogenic tone is an intrinsic property of the vasculature that contributes to blood pressure control and tissue perfusion. Earlier investigations assigned a key role in myogenic tone to phospholipase C (PLC) and its products, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG). Here, we used the PLC inhibitor, U-73122, and two other, specific inhibitors of PLC subtypes (PI-PLC and PC-PL...
The present studies examined relationships between intraluminal pressure, membrane potential (E(m)), and myogenic tone in skeletal muscle arterioles. Using pharmacological interventions targeting Ca(2+) entry/release mechanisms, these studies also determined the role of Ca(2+) pathways and E(m) in determining steady-state myogenic constriction. Studies were conducted in isolated and cannulated ...
In the leech, adult muscle cells and embryonic mesodermal/myogenic cells express the cell-type-specific Laz 10-1 epitope on extracellular matrix-associated proteins. Using this muscle-specific epitope as a marker, we found the following correlations between the development of identifiable myogenic cells at the embryonic midline and the segmentation of the leech CNS into 32 reiterative ganglia. ...
Renal blood flow (RBF) autoregulation is mediated by at least two mechanisms, the fast acting myogenic response (approximately 5 s) and slow acting tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF; approximately 25 s). Previous studies suggest epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC) family proteins, beta-ENaC in particular, mediate myogenic constriction in isolated renal interlobar arteries. However, it is unknown wheth...
