Role of nitric oxide in posthypoxic contractile dysfunction of diabetic cardiomyopathy 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We investigated the role of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in the contractile dysfunction of diabetic cardiomyopathy, comparing streptozotocin-treated (60 mg/kg) diabetic Wistar rats with matched non-diabetic controls. Isolated isovolumic heart function was studied during normoxia and in response to brief hypoxia-reoxygenation. Diabetic hearts had significantly lower left-ventricular pressure and slower isovolumic relaxation than controls (relaxation time constant, T 40.2+/-2.3 vs. 27.7+/-0.9 ms; P<0.05) and a blunted response to hypoxia. These abnormalities were unaffected by NOS inhibition. Upon reoxygenation after brief hypoxia, diabetic hearts exhibited substantial worsening of LV relaxation compared to normal hearts (T 69.1+/-3.3 vs. 56.6+/-7.9 ms; P<0.05). This post-hypoxic diastolic dysfunction was significantly attenuated either by the non-selective NOS inhibitor L-NAME, the iNOS inhibitor L-NIL, or the reactive-oxygen-species (ROS) scavenger thiourea. Only diabetic hearts expressed iNOS protein, whereas eNOS expression was similar in both groups. In conclusion, diabetic hearts exhibit markedly abnormal post-hypoxic relaxation, which is attributable to both ROS and NO derived from iNOS. 相似文献

The Role of Nitric Oxide in the Failing Heart 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Paulus WJ 《Heart failure reviews》2001,6(2):105-118
Nitric oxide (NO) has effects on contractility, energetics and gene expression of failing myocardium. Initial studies on isolated cardiomyocytes showed NO to reduce systolic shortening but intracoronary infusions of NO-donors or of NO synthase (NOS) inhibitors failed to elicit changes in baseline LV contractility indices such as LVdP/dt(max). Intracoronary infusions of NO-donors or of substance P, which releases NO from the coronary endothelium, however demonstrated NO to induce a downward displacement of the left ventricular (LV) diastolic pressure-volume relation, consistent with increased LV diastolic distensibility. In end-stage failing myocardium, the increased oxygen consumption is related to reduced NO production and in isolated cardiomyocytes, NO blunts the norepinephrine-induced expression of the fetal gene programme thereby preserving myocardial calcium homeostasis.In dilated cardiomyopathy, changed endomyocardial NOS gene expression has been reported. Because of lower endomyocardial NOS gene expression in patients with higher functional class and lower LV stroke work, increased endomyocardial NOS gene expression seems to be beneficial rather than detrimental for the failing heart. A beneficial effect of increased NOS gene expression could result from NO's ability to increase LV diastolic distensibility, to augment LV preload reserve, to reduce myocardial oxygen consumption and to prevent downregulation of calcium ATPase. Upregulated endomyocardial NOS gene expression has also been reported in athlete's heart and could therefore play a role in physiological LV remodeling. Reduced endomyocardial NO content because of decreased NO or increased superoxide production could lower LV diastolic distensibility and contribute to diastolic heart failure. In many conditions such as aging, hypertension, diabetes or posttransplantation, the increased incidence of diastolic heart failure is indeed paralleled by reduced endothelium-dependent vasodilation. 相似文献

Beneficial Effects of Nitric Oxide on Cardiac Diastolic Function: 'The Flip Side of the Coin' 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Paulus WJ 《Heart failure reviews》2000,5(4):337-344
Modulation by NO of systolic myocardial function received widespread attention but most studies focused on potential negative inotropic properties of NO. The very original observations on the effects of NO on myocardial contraction already provided evidence that NO modified myocardial contractile performance mainly through a relaxation-hastening effect (i.e. earlier onset of relaxation) and through an increase in myocardial distensibility. The present review discusses the relaxation hastening and distensibility-increasing effects of NO in experimental preparations, in the normal human heart, in left ventricular hypertrophy of aortic stenosis, in the human allograft and in dilated nonischemic cardiomyopathy. This diastolic flip side of the myocardial effects of NO appears to be beneficial especially for patients who are dependent on the LV Frank-Starling response to maintain cardiac output. 相似文献

Nitric oxide (NO) appears to play a role in modulating cardiac function in both health and disease. Early studies in isolated rodent cardiac myocytes demonstrated a depressant effect of NO supplied by NO donors (exogenous) as well as NO generated within myocytes (endogenous). There is increasing evidence for a functional NO generating system within the human myocardium, which appears upregulated in certain disease states. Induction of the high output nitric oxide synthase isoform (iNOS) has been demonstrated in the failing myocardium, though its functional significance remains unproven. More recently published data have contradicted the notion that NO acts solely as a negative inotrope demonstrating positive inotropy in both isolated rodent and human ventricular myocytes in response to a range of NO donors. Different NO donors have different NO release kinetics and generate a range of NO species (NO., NO+ and NO-) which may interact at a number of subcellular targets. The observed response of any cardiac preparation to an NO donor represents the net effect of activation of different effector targets and may explain the contradictory reported effects of NO. To realise the therapeutic potential of NO will require specific targeting at a subcellular level. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Hepatic encephalopathy is a complex neuropsychiatric syndrome. A previous study showed that chronic nitric oxide (NO) inhibition aggravated the severity of encephalopathy in thioacetamide (TAA)-treated rats. The present study investigated the relative contribution of NO synthase (NOS) isoforms on the severity of hepatic encephalopathy in TAA-treated rats. METHOD: Fulminant hepatic failure was induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats by intraperitoneal injection of TAA (350 mg/kg/day) for 3 days. Rats were divided into three groups to receive N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, a non-selective NOS inhibitor, 25 mg/kg/day in tap water), L-canavanine (an inducible NOS inhibitor, 100 mg/kg/day via intraperitoneal injection) or normal saline (N/S) from 2 days prior to TAA administration and lasting for 5 days. Severity of encephalopathy was assessed by the counts of motor activity. Plasma levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF- alpha) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and creatinine were determined by colorimetric assay. RESULTS: Compared with L-canavanine or N/S-treated rats (0% and 4%, respectively), the mortality rate was significantly higher in rats receiving L-NAME administration (29%, P < 0.005). Inhibition of NO created detrimental effects on the counts of motor activities (P < 0.05). Rats treated with L-NAME had significantly higher plasma levels of total bilirubin, ALT, creatinine and TNF- alpha as compared with rats treated with L-canavanine or N/S (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Chronic L-NAME administration, but not L-canavanine, had detrimental effects on the severity of hepatic damage and motor activities in TAA-treated rats. These results suggest that constitutive NOS activities play a major protective role in rats with fulminant hepatic failure. 相似文献

Role of neuronal nitric oxide synthase and inducible nitric oxide synthase in intestinal injury in neonatal rats 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
AIM: To investigate the dynamic change and role of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in neonatal rat with intestinal injury and to define whether necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is associated with the levels of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in the mucosa of the affected intestine tissue. METHODS: Wistar rats less than 24 h in age received an intraperitoneal injection with 5 mg/kg lipopolysaccharide (IPS). Ileum tissues were collected at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 h following LPS challenge for histological evaluation of NEC and for measurements of nNOS and iNOS. The correlation between the degree of intestinal injury and levels of NOS was determined. RESULTS: The LPS-injected pups showed a significant increase in injury scores versus the control. The expression of nNOS protein and mRNA was diminished after LPS injection. There was a negative significant correlation between the nNOS protein and the grade of median intestinal injury within 24 h. The expression of iNOS protein and mRNA was significantly increased in the peak of intestinal injury. CONCLUSION: nNOS and iNOS play different roles in LPS-induced intestinal injury. Caution should be exerted concerning potential therapeutic uses of NOS inhibitors in NEC. 相似文献

Role of nitric oxide in the pathophysiology of heart failure 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Nitric oxide (NO) plays critical roles in the regulation of integrated cardiac and vascular function and homeostasis. An understanding of the physiologic role and relative contribution of the three NO synthase isoforms (neuronal—NOS1, inducible—NOS2, and endothelial—NOS3) is imperative to comprehend derangements of the NO signaling pathway in the failing cardiovascular system. Several theories of NO and its regulation have developed as explanations for the divergent observations from studies in health and disease states. Here we review the physiologic and pathophysiologic influence of NO on cardiac function, in a framework that considers several theories of altered NO signaling in heart failure. We discuss the notion of spatial compartmentalization of NO signaling within the myocyte in an effort to reconcile many controversies about derangements in the influences of NO in the heart and vasculature. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Vascular endothelium and smooth muscle express heme oxygenase (HO) that metabolizes heme to biliverdin, iron and carbon monoxide (CO). Carbon monoxide promotes endothelium-independent vasodilation, but also inhibits nitric oxide formation. This study examines the hypothesis that an inhibitor of HO promotes endothelium-independent vasoconstriction, which is attenuated in the presence of unabated nitric oxide formation. METHODS: In vivo studies were conducted in anesthetized male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats instrumented with flow probes and arterial catheters. In vitro experiments were performed on pressurized first-order gracilis muscle arterioles isolated from male SD rats superfused with oxygenated modified Krebs buffer. RESULTS: Vascular smooth muscle and endothelium showed positive HO-1 and HO-2 immunostaining. In anesthetized rats the HO inhibitor chromium mesoporphyrin (CrMP; 45 micromol/kg intraperitoneally) had minimal effect on hindlimb resistance. However, in animals pretreated with N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; 300 mg/kg intraperitoneally), CrMP substantially increased hindlimb resistance. In contrast, in rats infused with phenylephrine to increase blood pressure and vascular tone, CrMP had no effect on hindlimb resistance. In isolated arterioles denuded of endothelium, CrMP (15 micromol/L) caused a powerful vasoconstriction, which was abolished in the presence of a functional endothelium. In arterioles with intact endothelium pretreated with L-NAME (1 mmol/L), or with L-NAME and sodium nitroprusside (10 to 30 nmol/L), CrMP promoted a similarly powerful vasoconstriction as in vessels denuded of endothelium. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that smooth muscle-derived CO may contribute to endothelium-independent regulation of vascular tone by providing a vasodilatory influence. Furthermore, the dilatory effects of endogenous CO are offset by a unique interaction between the CO and nitric oxide systems. 相似文献
