The effects of prostaglandins (PGs) D2, E2, F, an epoxymethano analogue of PGH2 (U-46619), prostacyclin (PGI2), 6-keto-PGF and thromboxane (Tx) B2 were tested on spirally-cut strips of guinea-pig isolated ileum or colon. In the ileum no prostanoid exerted a marked effect on the resting tissue, but PGD2, PGE2 or PGI2 1 μg ml?1 inhibited submaximal contraction to KC1. U-46619 1 μg ml?1 either inhibited or increased contractions to KC1, but PGF, 6-keto-PGF or TxB2 1 μg ml?1 had no significant effect. PGE2 relaxed colonic strips whereas the other prostanoids caused contraction, except for TxB2 which had no effect. The PG antagonist SC-19220 blocked colonic contractions to the prostanoids, and a residual inhibitory effect of PGD2, U-46619 or PGI2 was demonstrated by the reduction of submaximal contractions to acetylcholine. Our results suggest that prostanoid receptors mediating inhibitory responses of circular muscle predominate in the ileum, whereas in the colon both excitatory and inhibitory prostanoid receptors occur.  相似文献

Angiotensin II and bradykinin are potent releasers of prostanoids, and it has been suggested that these prostanoids may modulate vascular tone in a number of organs. We previously showed that the pericardium is an important site of prostacyclin biosynthesis, and in this study we have investigated whether or not prostacyclin released into the pericardial fluid influences coronary blood flow. Angiotensin II and bradykinin were infused intra-aortically into anaesthetized dogs, and coronary blood flow in the circumflex artery was measured with electromagnetic probes. Krebs solution irrigating the pericardial surfaces was monitored for prostanoid release using a cascade of bioassay tissues as previously described. Angiotensin II infusions (25 ng/kg/min) increased arterial blood pressure, decreased coronary blood flow, and increased the release of a prostacyclin-like substance into the pericardial irrigating fluid. Inclusion of indomethacin (1 microgram/ml) in the pericardial irrigating fluid abolished angiotensin II-induced release of the prostacyclin-like substance from the heart, did not affect resting coronary flow, but potentiated the coronary vasoconstrictor response to intra-arterial angiotensin II. Bradykinin infusions (0.2 microgram/kg/min) also released the prostacyclin-like substance into the pericardial fluid, and caused a transient decrease in arterial pressure and increase in coronary blood flow. Inclusion of captopril (1 microgram/ml) in the irrigating fluid increased slightly the release of the prostacyclin-like substance, but did not alter the increase in coronary blood flow produced by bradykinin. Moreover, when prostacyclin release was abolished by pericardial indomethacin, the coronary vasodilator response to bradykinin was not altered. A large intravenous dose of indomethacin (5 mg/kg) increased the coronary vasoconstrictor response to angiotensin II, but, again, did not alter the vasodilator response to bradykinin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

1. The effect of prostacyclin (PGI2) infusion on plasma renin concentration (PRC) was examined before and after propranolol treatment in sheep. 2. Increasing doses of prostacyclin (0.05, 0.1 or 0.3 μg/kg per min) produced dose dependent increases in PRC. 3. There was a significantly lower PRC response after propranolol at 0.3 μg/kg per min only.  相似文献

The preparation and use of the rabbit transverse stomachstrip as an isolated assay tissue for prostaglandins is described. The tissue is relaxed by low concentrations of PGE2, PGA2 and PGD2 and contracted by prostacyclin (PGI2) and PGF. The decomposition product of prostacyclin, 6-oxo-PGF, has little effect, whereas the endoperoxde PGH2 and thromboxane A2 cause a small contraction. Arachidonic acid also contracts the tissue and this response is abolished by indomethacin. This tissue also responds to low concentrations of histamine, acetylcholine, noradrenaline and bradykinin. In conjunction with other bioassay tissues such as the rat stomach strip and rabbit coeliac artery, the rabbit transverse stomach strip provides a convenient method of detection or identification of known arachidonic acid metabolites.  相似文献

Indomethacin (2.8 μmol/1) did not consistently affect basal tone of sheep coronary artery strips, while a ten-fold higher concentration increased tension in 50% of the preparations tested. When acetylcholine was used as a spasmogen, oscillations in induced tone and relaxations produced by arachidonic acid (6.6 μmol/1) were abolished by indomethacin, 2.8 μmol/1 and 7 μmol/1, respectively. Prostacyclin (PGI2) and prostaglandin E1 decreased and PGE2 increased arterial tension while PGF was inactive. Responses to PGI2 were reduced by indomethacin (28 μmol/1) but not by indomethacin (2.8 μmol/1). It is suggested that sheep isolated coronary arteries synthesize and release prostacyclin in the presence of acetylcholine and arachidonic acid and that such synthesis can be inhibited by indomethacin.  相似文献

Prostaglandins belong to a class of cyclic lipid-derived mediators synthesized from arachidonic acid via COX-1, COX-2 and various prostaglandin synthases. Members of this family include prostaglandins such as PGE2, PGF, PGD2 and PGI2 (prostacyclin) as well as thromboxane. In the present studies we analyzed the effects of UVB on prostaglandin production and prostaglandin synthase expression in primary cultures of undifferentiated and calcium-differentiated mouse keratinocytes. Both cell types were found to constitutively synthesize PGE2, PGD2 and the PGD2 metabolite PGJ2. Twenty-four hours after treatment with UVB (25 mJ/cm2), production of PGE2 and PGJ2 increased, while PGD2 production decreased. This was associated with increased expression of COX-2 mRNA and protein. UVB (2.5–25 mJ/cm2) also caused marked increases in mRNA expression for the prostanoid synthases PGDS, mPGES-1, mPGES-2, PGFS and PGIS, as well as expression of receptors for PGE2 (EP1 and EP2), PGD2 (DP and CRTH2) and prostacyclin (IP). UVB was more effective in inducing COX-2 and DP in differentiated cells and EP1 and IP in undifferentiated cells. UVB readily activated keratinocyte PI-3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt, JNK and p38 MAP signaling pathways which are known to regulate COX-2 expression. While inhibition of PI3K suppressed UVB-induced mPGES-1 and CRTH2 expression, JNK inhibition suppressed mPGES-1, PGIS, EP2 and CRTH2, and p38 kinase inhibition only suppressed EP1 and EP2. These data indicate that UVB modulates expression of prostaglandin synthases and receptors by distinct mechanisms. Moreover, both the capacity of keratinocytes to generate prostaglandins and their ability to respond to these lipid mediators are stimulated by exposure to UVB.  相似文献

1. In chloralose anaesthetized rats intravenous administration of captopril (0.5 mg/kg) was followed by an approximately 100-fold decrease in sensitivity to the pressor actions of angiotensin I. Concomitantly there was a 100-fold increase in sensitivity to the depressor effects of bradykinin. 2. Depressor responses to intravenous prostacyclin (PGI2), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) or a low dose of arachidonic acid (1 mg/kg) were not changed by captopril administration, but responses to a high dose of arachidonic acid (3 mg/kg), given either intravenously or into the aortic arch, were enhanced for up to two hours afterwards. 3. Depressor responses to arachidonic acid, both before and after captopril, were inhibited after intravenous indomethacin (1 mg/kg). 4. These results support the hypothesis that increased synthesis of prostaglandins in the circulation contributes to the hypotensive action of captopril.  相似文献

An enriched population of isolated gastric parietal cells was obtained from canine gastric mucosa. Parietal cells incubated with [14C]arachidonic acid produced radiolabelled PGF. PGE2, PGD2 and 6-keto PGF (acid hydrolysis product of PGI2). The prostaglandin synthesis was inhibited by indomethacin. Prostaglandin production, as measure by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry demonstrated that PGF was produced in the highest quantity followed by PGE2 and 6-keto PGAF. This demonstrates that isolated parietal cells are capable of producing prostaglandins. Since prostaglandins have a potent effect on gastric acid secretion, local prostaglandin synthesis could modulate parietal cell function.  相似文献

  • 1 Effects of prostaglandin(PG) E2, D2, I2, 6-keto-PGF and arachidonic acid on the excitatory transmission were examined in the separated longitudinal and circular muscles of canine small intestine in vitro.
  • 2 Both muscles contracted in response to electrical field stimulation (1 msec, 20 Hz, 100 pulses, supramaximal voltage: indirect stimulation). The contractions were abolished by treatment with tetrodotoxin (0.3 μM). In the presence of tetrodotoxin, the muscle contracted in response to stimulation using a pulse duration of 20msec (direct stimulation). Sites of action of drugs were determined by the difference in their effects on the responses to indirect and direct stimulation.
  • 3 PGE2 strongly inhibited the contractile response of circular muscle to indirect stimulation whilst slightly inhibiting that to direct stimulation. The data suggest that PGE2 may act on the transmission prejunctionally and reduce the transmitter release in circular muscle.
  • 4 PGD2 and PGI2 in high concentrations slightly inhibited the contractile responses of circular muscle to both indirect and direct stimulations, indicating that PGD2 and PGI2 slightly inhibited the transmission postjunctionally. 6-keto-PGF did not inhibit the transmission of circular muscle.
  • 5 Arachidonic acid inhibited the contractile response of circular muscle to indirect stimulation, and indomethacin attenuated the arachidonic acid-induced inhibition. PGE2, biosynthetized from arachidonic acid, may act on the transmission of circular muscle.
  • 6 In the longitudinal muscle, none of PGE2, PGD2, PGI2 or 6-keto-PGF inhibited the contractile response to indirect stimulation. 7 Arachidonic acid slightly inhibited the contractile response of longitudinal muscle to indirect stimulation. However, indomethacin did not antagonize this effect. 8 The results suggest that the transmission of circular muscle in canine small intestine is prejunctionally regulated by PGE2, and that of longitudinal muscle is slightly affected by arachidonic acid or by metabolites through lipoxygenase.

1 The generation of prostanoids in the hearts of anaesthetized dogs was studied by irrigating in situ the epicardial surface with Krebs solution. Prostanoids were measured by direct bioassay on smooth muscles and by radioimmunoassay of 6-oxo-prostaglandin F1 alpha (6-oxo-PGF1 alpha) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in the epicardial irrigation fluid. 2 The epicardial irrigation fluid contained a prostacyclin-like substance, as indicated by the bioassay tissues, and immunoreactive 6-oxo-PGF1 alpha; PGE2-like materials were also detected. By both methods the output of the prostacyclin-like substance, which decreased with time of epicardial irrigation, was increased by manipulating the heart and by adding arachidonic acid (3 microgram/ml), and decreased by adding indomethacin (1 microgram/ml) to the irrigation fluid. 3 Bioassayed prostacyclin and immunoreactive 6-oxo-PGF1 alpha in the epicardial irrigation fluid increased by about 3-5 ng/ml during and after infusion of isoprenaline (0.1 microgram kg-1 min-1). The substance was not released by isoprenaline when indomethacin was added to the irrigation fluid, or when propranolol (0.5 mg/kg) was given intravenously. 4 Aortic constriction, bilateral carotid artery occlusion and intravenous angiotensin infusion all increased output of the prostacyclin-like substance into the epicardial irrigation fluid. The output was abolished by treating the heart with indomethacin (10 mg/kg intravenously or 1 microgram/ml epicardially). 5 The prostacyclin-like substance was also released by all of the above stimuli after the parietal pericardium had been removed and replaced by a plastic sheet. 6 It is concluded that prostacyclin is continually released from tissues close to the epicardial surface and from the pericardium, and that prostacyclin generation increases when cardiac workload increases. Prostacyclin of epicardial or pericardial origin might therefore contribute to metabolic regulation of coronary blood flow.  相似文献

The effect of prostaglandins (PG) on amphetamine(AMPH)-induced circling was examined in mice unilaterally lesioned with 6-hydroxy-dopamine. At doses of 0.03–1.0 nmol/g, intraventricularly injected PGD2, PGE2, and PGF2 all inhibited AMP-induced circling, while thromboxane-B2 (TxB2) was inactive at 1.0 nmol/g. The inhibition of circling was not due to alterations in body temperature as measured by rectal temperature changes. When injected intrastriatally, the same major PG inhibited AMP-induced circling at the lower doses of 0.01–0.1 nmol/g, while the PGE2 metabolite 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-PGE2 was inactive at 0.1 nmol/g. PG administered alone did not procude circling. For both routes of administration, the order of potency was PGE2>PGD2>PGF2. These results suggest that PG can alter motor function governed by central dopaminergic pathways.  相似文献

Cellular arachidonic acid (AA), an unsaturated fatty acid found ubiquitously in plasma membranes, is metabolized to different prostanoids, such as prostacyclin (PGI2) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), by the three-step reactions coupling the upstream cyclooxygenase (COX) isoforms (COX-1 and COX-2) with the corresponding individual downstream synthases. While the vascular actions of these prostanoids are well-characterized, their specific roles in the hippocampus, a major brain area for memory, are poorly understood. The major obstacle for its understanding in the brain was to mimic the biosynthesis of each prostanoid. To solve the problem, we utilized Single-Chain Hybrid Enzyme Complexes (SCHECs), which could successfully control cellular AA metabolites to the desired PGI2 or PGE2. Our in vitro studies suggested that neurons with higher PGI2 content and lower PGE2 content exhibited survival protection and resistance to Amyloid-β-induced neurotoxicity. Further extending to an in vivo model, the hybrid of PGI2-producing transgenic mice and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) mice showed restored long-term memory. These findings suggested that the vascular prostanoids, PGI2 and PGE2, exerted significant regulatory influences on neuronal protection (by PGI2), or damage (by PGE2) in the hippocampus, and raised a concern that the wide uses of aspirin in cardiovascular diseases may exert negative impacts on neurodegenerative protection.

Our study intended to understand the crosstalk of prostanoids in the hippocampus, a major brain area impacted in AD, by using hybrid enzymes to redirect the synthesis of prostanoids to PGE2 and PGI2, respectively. Our data indicated that during inflammation, the vascular mediators, PGI2 and PGE2, exerted significant regulatory influences on neuronal protection (by PGI2), or damage (by PGE2) in the hippocampus. These findings also raised a concern that the widely uses of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in cardiovascular diseases may exert negative impacts on neurodegenerative protection.

1. Vasodepressor responses to intravenous injection of prostacyclin, arachidonic acid, and nitroprusside were examined in anaesthetized, spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) of the Okamoto strain, and in their normotensive Wistar– Kyoto (WKY) controls. 2. Depressor responses to prostacyclin and nitroprusside did not differ significantly between the two strains. 3. The vasodepressor effects of arachidonic acid were greater and much more prolonged in SHR than in WKY. In rats treated with indomethacin (2 mg/kg) arachidonic acid induced only transient depressor responses which did not differ significantly between these strains. 4. It is concluded that SHR do not differ from WKY in their sensitivity to prostacyclin but they have enhanced ability to transform exogenous arachidonic acid into vasodilator prostanoids.  相似文献

Prostanoids (prostaglandins and the thromboxanes) are cyclooxygenase products derived from C-20 unsaturated fatty acids. Since arachidonic acid is the most abundant among these precursor fatty acids in mammals, including humans, the series 2 prostanoids are predominantly formed in the body. Thus, cyclooxygenases metabolise arachidonate to five primary prostanoids: PGE2, PGF2 α, PGI2, TXA2 and PGD2. These lipid mediators interact with specific members of a family of distinct G-protein-coupled prostanoid receptors, designated EP, FP, IP, TP and DP, respectively. As a review focused on latest discoveries and developments of novel TXA2 modulators patented from January 1997 to December 2000 has been recently published, this paper specifically focuses on newly developed IP, DP, FP and EP modulators patented for three years, from January 1998 to December 2001. Indeed, because prostaglandins are involved in a large series of pathophysiological processes, a classification of these modulators has been proposed, based on the type of receptors activated or inhibited. Their pharmacological profile is also described.  相似文献

Bradykinin (1 μM 5 min) induced translocation of protein kinase C (PKC) to the plasma membrane fraction in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. Bradykinin also enhanced the binding of phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) to intact cells, a measure of PKC activation. Addition of bradykinin (1 μM) to cells preincubated with [3H]PDBu (10 nM, 20 min) caused an increase in specific PDBu binding that was maximal after 5–10 min. The bradykinin-induced enhancement of PDBu binding was seen at 1 nM and was maximal at 10 nM. The bradykinin B1 receptor agonist des-Arg9-bradykinin (1 μM) did not enhance specific PDBu binding to intact MC3T3-E1 cells. PDBu at and above 3 nM stimulated the formation of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in MC3T3-EI cells. This stimulatory effect was seen after 15–20 min incubation. The Ca2+ ionophore A23187 at and above 1 μM induced a rapid (within seconds) burst of PGE2 formation in MC3T3-E1 cells. The effect of PDBu and A23187 on PGE2 formation was synergistic. The PKC inhibitor staurosporine (200 nM) inhibited basal as well as bradykinin-induced prostaglandin-formation in MC3T3-E1 cells. In conclusion: bradykinin enhances PKC activation in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. This kinase activation may be involved in bradykinin-induced prostaglandin formation.  相似文献

1. Stimulation of prostanoid release by angiotensins (AI and All) in rat isolated mesenteric vasculature and in the circulation of anaesthetized dogs has been investigated by bioassay. 2. AI and All released a PGI2-like substance into rat mesenteric effluent and arterial blood of dogs; PGE2, PGF or TXA2 were not detected. 3. AI stimulated PGL release in both systems largely as a result of its conversion to All, since PGI2 release was much reduced after treatment with captopril. 4. Intravenous AII (0-2-1.0μg kg?1min?1) in dogs released PGI2 mainly from the lungs since right atrial blood contained much less than arterial blood. 5. Indomethacin (1 μg/ml) abolished All-induced PGI2 release from the mesentery preparation, but intravenous indomethacin (10 mg/kg), meclofena-mate (2 mg/kg) or aspirin (100 mg/kg) did not eliminate the pulmonary source of PGI2 in dogs. These findings highlight the dangers of assuming in vivo treatment with cyclo-oxygenase inhibitors abolishes biosynthesis of all prostanoids.  相似文献

The effect of prostaglandins (PGs) on apomorphine (apo)-induced circling was examined in unilaterally lesioned mice. Intraventricularly injected PGD2, PGE2, and PGF at a dose of 1.0 nmole/g all inhibited apo-induced circling. When injected directly into the striatum, these same PGs also inhibited circling in a dose range of 0.01–0.1 nmole/g, while the PGE2 metabolite, 13, 14-dihydro-15-keto-PGE2, was inactive at 0.1 nmole/g. For both routes of administration, PGF appeared to be the most potent of the PGs tested. PGs administered alone by either route to unilaterally lesioned mice did not produce circling. Pretreatment with the PG synthetase inhibitor, indomethacin, caused the apo treated mice to circle at significantly higher rates than control animals. These results are the first report suggesting that within dopamine (DA)-mediated pathways PGs act at sites postsynaptic to the dopaminergic synapse.  相似文献

Our previous in vitro study demonstrated that bradykinin (BK) induced relaxation and contraction of porcine basilar artery (PBA) mediated via activation of endothelial B2 receptors. The main relaxing and contracting factors appeared to be nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin (PG) H2, respectively, but not thromboxane A2. After obtaining these findings, we succeeded in cultivating endothelial cells isolated from the PBA. Although PGH2 has different functionally active isoforms, including PGD2, PGE2, and PGF, we have not yet clarified which of them is responsible for BK-induced contraction. Therefore, we attempted to quantify NO and PG production from cultured porcine basilar arterial endothelial cells (PBAECs) and to identify which of the PGs was involved in this contraction. The cultured PBAECs produced NO spontaneously, and BK enhanced this production in a concentration-dependent manner. The NO synthase inhibitor Nω-nitro-l-arginine (L-NNA) and the B2 receptor antagonist HOE-140, but not the B1 receptor antagonist des-Arg9, [Leu8]-BK, completely abolished it. In a functional study, PGD2, PGE2, and PGF induced concentration-dependent contractions in isolated porcine basilar arterial rings, the order of maximum contraction being PGF?>?PGE2?>?PGD2. The cultured PBAECs produced PGD2, PGE2, and PGF spontaneously, and BK significantly enhanced the production of PGF, but not that of PGD2 and PGE2. The B2, but not B1, antagonist completely abolished the BK-enhanced production of PGF. These results suggest that BK induces production of NO and PGF simultaneously from PBAECs via B2 receptor activation.  相似文献
