Formation of 6-nitro-norepinephrine from nitric oxide and norepinephrine in the spinal cord and its role in spinal analgesia

Spinally released norepinephrine is thought to produce analgesia in part by stimulating alpha(2)-adrenergic receptors, which in turn leads to nitric oxide synthesis. Also, nitric oxide is known to react with norepinephrine in vivo in the brain to form 6-nitro-norepinephrine, which inhibits neuronal norepinephrine reuptake. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that formation of 6-nitro-norepinephrine occurs in the spinal cord and that intrathecal administration of 6-nitro-norepinephrine produces analgesia by stimulating norepinephrine release. 6-Nitro-norepinephrine was present in rat spinal cord tissue and microdialysates of the dorsal horn and intrathecal space. Intrathecal norepinephrine injection increased 6-nitro-norepinephrine. 6-Nitro-norepinephrine also stimulated norepinephrine release in dorsal spinal cord in vitro. Intrathecal injection of 6-nitro-norepinephrine produced antinociception and interacted additively with norepinephrine for antinociception. Spinal noradrenergic nerve destruction increased antinociception from intrathecally injected norepinephrine, but decreased antinociception from 6-nitro-norepinephrine.These results suggest a functional interaction between spinal nitric oxide and norepinephrine in analgesia, mediated in part by formation of 6-nitro-norepinephrine. Stimulation of auto-inhibitory alpha(2)-adrenergic receptors at noradrenergic synapses decreases norepinephrine release. Paradoxically, alpha(2)-adrenergic agonist injection increases and alpha(2)-adrenergic antagonist injection decreases norepinephrine release in the spinal cord. 6-Nitro-norepinephrine may be an important regulator of spinal norepinephrine release and could explain the positive feedback on norepinephrine release after activation of spinal alpha(2)-adrenergic receptors.     

Reduced Left Ventricular Compliance and Mechanical Efficiency after Prolonged Inhibition of NO Synthesis in Conscious Dogs

Acute inhibition of NO synthesis decreases left ventricular (LV) work and external efficiency, but it is unknown whether compensatory mechanisms can limit the alterations in LV mechanoenergetics after prolonged NO deficiency. Eight chronically instrumented male mongrel dogs received 35 mg kg⁻¹ day⁻¹ of N ^ω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester orally for 10 days to inhibit NO synthesis. At spontaneous beating frequency, heart rate, coronary blood flow, peak LV pressure, end-diastolic LV pressure and the maximum derivative of LV pressure (d P /d t _max) were not significantly different vs. baseline, whereas LV end-diastolic diameter (32.5 ± 1.0 vs. 37.6 ± 1.4 mm) and LV stroke work (515 ± 38 vs. 650 ± 44 mmHg mm), were reduced (all P < 0.05). The slope of the LV end-systolic pressure-diameter relationship was increased at 10 days vs. baseline (13.9 ± 1.0 vs. 9.6 ± 0.9 mmHg mm⁻¹, P < 0.05), while the end-diastolic LV diameter was smaller at matched LV end-diastolic pressures. At fixed heart rate (130 beats min⁻¹), cardiac oxygen consumption was increased (12.2 ± 1.5 vs. 9.9 ± 1.0 ml min⁻¹), and the ratio between stroke work and oxygen consumption was decreased by 33 ±7 % (all P < 0.05) after NO inhibition. We conclude that sustained inhibition of NO synthesis in dogs causes a decrease in LV work despite an increased contractility, which is most probably due to reduced diastolic compliance and a decrease in external efficiency. Thus, prolonged NO deficiency is not compensated for on the level of LV mechanoenergetics in vivo .     

Biochemical characterization of atherosclerotic plaque constituents using FTIR spectroscopy and histology

The behavior of vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques is believed to be closely related to plaque composition. There is a need for an effective in vivo technique for examining plaque constituent properties. In this study, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy using attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR) was used to assess and analyze the biochemical properties of human atherosclerotic plaques. FTIR spectra clearly revealed prominent spectral features corresponding to plaque constituents of interest: the 2930 cm(-1) and 2850 cm(-1) peaks (indicating the presence of lipids), the 1730 cm(-1) peak (lipid esters), the 1550 cm(-1) and 1650 cm(-1) peaks (fibrous tissues), and the 1100-1000 cm(-1) broad phosphate peak (calcification). Spectral data examined on a qualitative basis correlated well with both gross tissue anatomy and histologic features. Gross spatial mappings of tissue sections of both lipidic and calcified plaques were performed. Spectra from various regions of the plaques demonstrated the evolution of lipid peaks, fibrous tissue peaks, and the phosphate calcification band within the plaques. Histologic analysis corroborated the spectral findings in this study.

Monocyte chemotactic protein-3 (MCP3) interacts with multiple leukocyte receptors: binding and signaling of MCP3 through shared as well as unique receptors on monocytes and neutrophils

The diversity of monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)3 target cell types, as well as the capacity of MCP3 to desensitize leukocyte responses to other CC chemokines, suggested that MCP3 may interact with multiple CC chemokine receptors. The purpose of this study is to establish how MCP3 binds and activates monocytes and neutrophils. We show that human monocytes exhibit high-affinity binding for ¹²⁵I-MCP3 with an estimated Kd of 1–3 nM and about 10000 binding sites/cell. The binding of ¹²⁵I-MCP3 to monocytes was progressively less well competed by CC chemokines macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)lα (Kd = 5–10 nM), RANTES (Kd = 5–10 nM), MCP1 (monocyte chemoattractant and activating factor, or MCAF) (Kd = 60 nM) and MIP1β (Kd > 100 nM). On the other hand, unlabeled MCP3 displaced the binding of radiolabeled MIP1α, RANTES, MCP1 and MIP1β as effectively as the isologous CC chemokines. In agreement with the binding data, pretreatment of monocytes with MCP3 completely desensitized the calcium flux in response to MIP1α and RANTES. However, MIP1α and RANTES failed to desensitize the response of monocytes to MCP3. MCP3 and MCP1 partially desensitized each other's effects on monocytes. These binding and cross-desensitization results suggest that MCP3 binds and signals through other binding sites in addition to those shared with MIP1α, RANTES and MCP1. The unidirectional competition for MIP1β binding and signaling by MCP3 suggests the existence of an as-yet unidentified site for MCP3 shared with MIP1β. The existence of another unique binding site(s) for MCP3 was further shown by the failure of any of the other CC chemokines to compete effectively for MCP3 binding on neutrophils. MCP3 in our study was also the only human CC chemokine that consistently chemoattracted neutrophils. These results suggest that MCP3 is a ligand that can bind and activate a broad range of target cells through receptors shared by other CC chemokines as well as its own receptor.

纤维蛋白原与吸附白蛋白、肝素的新型血管支架材料氧化钛的血液相容性

探索纤维蛋白原(Fibrinogen,FIG)与吸附白蛋白、肝素的新型血管支架材料氧化钛(Titanium Oxide,Ti-O)的血液相容性。(1)研制Ti-O,切割成薄膜;(2)Ti-O薄膜涂层白蛋白和肝素;(3)血小板(platelet,PL)吸附试验;(4)酶联免疫试验测FIG吸附量;(5)动物犬股动脉内植入涂层的Ti-O薄膜与对照试片Ti-O和不锈钢(Stainless steel,SS)薄膜。结果发现:Ti-O完全具有固定白蛋白和肝素的结构与性能,比未涂层的Ti-O能更一步减少PL和FIG的吸附,实验动物体内薄膜6个月后取出扫描电镜观察黏附的PL少,形态无改变,血管内无血栓,优于未涂层的Ti-O,更明显优于SS。Ti-O为N型半导体,不易接受FIG的电荷,并且与血细胞有相似的界面张力,决定生物材料Ti-O有较好的血液相容性。Ti-O对白蛋白、肝素有极好的亲和力是因以化学键相结合,在血中进一步减少FIG和PL被涂层的Ti-O吸附。实验证明涂层的Ti-O有持久和稳定的抗凝血性能。
