The aim of this study was to assess the molecular basis of renal Na,K-ATPase disturbances in response to NO-deficient hypertension induced in rats by NO-synthase inhibition with 40 mg/kg/day NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) for four weeks. After 4-week administration of L-NAME, the systolic blood pressure (SBP) increased by 30 %. Three weeks after terminating the treatment, SBP recovered to control value. When activating the Na,K-ATPase with its substrate ATP, a 36 % increase in Km and 29 % decrease in Vmax values were observed in NO-deficient rats. During activation with Na+, the Vmax was decreased by 20 % and the KNa was increased by 111 %, indicating a profound decrease in the affinity of the Na+-binding site in NO-deficient rats. After spontaneous recovery from hypertension, the Vmax remained at the level as in hypertension for both types of enzyme activation. However, in the presence of lower concentrations of substrate which are of physiological relevance an improvement of the enzyme activity was observed as documented by return of Km for ATP to control value. The KNa value for Na+ was decreased by 27 % as compared to hypertension, but still exceeded the corresponding value in the control group by 55 % thus resulting in a partial restoration of Na+ affinity of Na,K-ATPase which was depressed as a consequence of NO-dependent hypertension., N.

We aimed to compare the effects of chronic and acute administration of structurally different antihypertensives, diuretics - indapamide and hydrochlorothiazide, ACE inhibitor - captopril and indapamide+captopril combination on endothelium-dependent relaxation of femoral artery isolated from nitric oxide (NO)-deficient rats. In the chronic experiment, femoral artery was isolated from Wistar rats receiving L-NAME (40 mg/kg/day) solely or with indapamide (1 mg/kg/day), hydrochlorothiazide (10 mg/kg/day), captopril (10 mg/kg/day), and indapamide+captopril combination for seven weeks. In the acute in vitro experiment, the incubation medium with femoral artery isolated from L-NAMEhypertensive rats was supplemented with investigated antihypertensives in the same concentration 10-4 mol/l. Interestingly, chronic L-NAME treatment did not cause a reduction of vasorelaxation. Indapamide+captopril elevated relaxation above the control level and completely prevented blood pressure increase induced by L-NAME. Acute incubation with captopril only or indapamide+captopril improved relaxation of femoral artery isolated from L-NAMEhypertensive rats, while the incubation with all antihypertensives increased vasorelaxation of femoral artery isolated from control Wistar rats. In conclusion, NO might be involved in the indapamide- and hydrochlorothiazide-induced improvement of vasorelaxation, while different vasorelaxing factors (prostacyclin, EDHF) contribute to the captoprilinduced improvement of vasorelaxation. During the chronic treatment additive and synergic effects of indapamide and captopril may contribute to the prevention of hypertension and increase of vasorelaxation., M. Sládková, S. Kojšová, L.

The mechanisms and myocardial alterations associated with NO-deficient hypertension are still far from clear. The aim of the present study was to focus on the enzyme histochemical and subcellular changes in the heart of L-NAME treated rats, as well as to examine the influence of captopril treatment. Wistar rats were administered either L-NAME (40 mg/kg/day) alone or together with captopril (100 mg/kg/day) for a period of 4 weeks. A significant increase of blood pressure confirmed the reliability of the model. The results showed that long-lasting L-NAME administration was accompanied by a decrease of endothelial NO-synthase activity and by a significant local decrease of the following enzyme activities: capillary-related alkaline phosphatase, 5’-nucleotidase and ATPase (but not dipeptidyl peptidase IV) and cardiomyocyte-related glycogen phosphorylase, succinic dehydrogenase, ß-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase and ATPases. No activity of these enzymes was found in the scar, whereas a marked increase of alkaline phosphatase and dipeptidyl peptidase IV activities was found in the foci of fibrotization. Histochemical changes correlated with subcellular changes, which were characterized by 1) apparent fibroblast activation associated with interstitial/perivascular fibrosis, 2) heterogeneous population of the normal, hypertrophic and injured cardiomyocytes, 3) enhancement of the atrial granules and their translocation into the sarcolemma, and 4) impairment of capillaries as well as by induction of angiogenesis. Similar alterations were also found in the heart of captopril co-treated rats, despite of the significant suppression of blood pressure. The results indicate that NO-deficient hypertension is accompanied by metabolic disturbances and ultrastructural alterations of the heart and these changes are probably not induced by the renin-angiotensin system only., N.

Hereditary hypertriglyceridemic (hHTG) rats are characterized by increased blood pressure and impaired endotheliumdependent relaxation of conduit arteries. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of long-term (4 weeks) treatment of hHTG rats with three drugs which, according to their mechanism of action, may be able to modify the endothelial function: simvastatin (an inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase), spironolactone (an antagonist of aldosterone receptors) and L-arginine (a precursor of nitric oxide formation). At the end of 4th week the systolic blood pressure in the control hHTG group was 148±2 mm Hg and in control normotensive Wistar group 117±3 mm Hg. L-arginine failed to reduce blood pressure, but simvastatin (118±1 mm Hg) and spironolactone (124±4 mm Hg) treatment significantly decreased the systolic blood pressure. In isolated phenylephrine-precontracted aortic rings from hHTG rats endothelium-dependent relaxation was diminished as compared to control Wistar rats. Of the three drugs used, only simvastatin improved acetylcholine-induced relaxation of the aorta. We conclude that both simvastatin and spironolactone reduced blood pressure but only simvastatin significantly improved endothelial dysfunction of aorta. Prominent increase in the expression of eNOS in large conduit arteries may be the pathophysiological mechanism underlying the protective effect of simvastatin in hHTG rats., J. Török, I. L'upták, J.

We aimed to compare the effect of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors captopril (containing thiol group) and enalapril (without thiol group) on the development of spontaneous hypertension and to analyze mechanisms of their actions, particularly effects on oxidative stress and NO production. Six-week-old SHR were divided into three groups: control, group receiving captopril (50 mg/kg/day) or enalapril (50 mg/kg/day) for 6 weeks. At the end of experiment, systolic blood pressure (SBP) increased by 41 % in controls. Both captopril and enalapril prevented blood pressure increase, however, SBP in the captopril group (121±5 mmHg) was significantly lower than that in the enalapril group (140±5 mmHg). Concentration of conjugated dienes in the aorta was significantly lower in the captopril group compared to the enalapril group. Captopril and enalapril increased NO synthase activity in the heart and aorta to the similar level. Neither captopril nor enalapril was, however, able to increase the expression of eNOS. Both ACE inhibitors increased the level of cGMP. However, cGMP level was significantly higher in the aorta of captopril group. We conclude that captopril, beside inhibition of ACE, prevented hypertension by increasing NO synthase activity and by simultaneous decrease of oxidative stress which resulted in increase of cGMP concentration., O. Pecháňová., and Obsahuje bibliografii
The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor captopril on cGMP and cAMP concentration in the left ventricle and aorta after NO synthase inhibition by 4-week-lasting NG-nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester (L-NAME) treatment. Five groups of rats were investigated: controls, L-NAME in the dose 20 mg/kg/day (L-NAME 20), L-NAME in the dose 40 mg/kg/day (L-NAME 40), captopril in the dose 100 mg/kg/day, L-NAME 40 mg/kg/day together with captopril 100 mg/kg/day. Captopril completely prevented L-NAME-induced hypertension and LV hypertrophy development. Compared to the controls, cGMP concentration in the L-NAME 20 and L-NAME 40 groups was decreased by 13 % and 22 %, respectively, in the left ventricle and by 27 % and 56 % in the aorta, respectively. Captopril did not influence this decrease of cGMP concentration. Cyclic AMP concentration in the aorta of L-NAME 20 group increased by 17 %. In the L-NAME 40 group, cAMP concentration increased by 17 % in the left ventricle and by 34 % in the aorta compared to controls. This increase was enhanced in rats given L-NAME together with captopril. Captopril alone had no effect on cAMP concentration. We conclude that captopril does not affect the concentration of cGMP, however, it has more than the additive effect on the cAMP concentration increase in the cardiovascular system during long-term NO synthase inhibition., O.

We studied the effect of thiazide-like diuretic – indapamide on fibrosis development in the left ventricle of young spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and assessed the involvement of nitric oxide in this process. Six-week-old male SHR were treated with indapamide (1 mg/kg/day) for six weeks. Age-matched SHR were used as hypertensive and Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) as normotensive control. Systolic blood pressure was measured by tail-cuff plethysmography. Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity, protein expressions of endothelial (eNOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS), myocardial fibrosis and collagen type I and III were determined in the left ventricle. Indapamide treatment partially prevented SBP increase in SHR (SHR+Indapamide: 157±4, SHR: 171±3, WKY: 119±3 mmHg). Indapamide prevented myocardial fibrosis development in SHR, but without affecting collagen type I to type III ratio. Indapamide did not affect NOS activity as well as eNOS and iNOS protein expressions in the left ventricles evaluated by both Western blot and immunohistochemically. In conclusion, our results indicate that indapamide-induced prevention of myocardial fibrosis is not mediated by nitric oxide-related mechanism., P. Janega, S. Kojšová, L. Jendeková, P. Babál, O.

Angiogenesis is known to be triggered by various stimuli including hypertension. It was previously found that NO-deficient hypertension is accompanied by structural remodeling of the cardiac muscle and large coronary arteries. This study was aimed to examine the qualitative subcellular alterations of capillaries in the heart of the rats treated with L-NAME (40 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks). The results showed that long-lasting inhibition of NO production induced an apparent activation of fibroblast function. This was associated with enhancement of fibrozation as well as with the induction of angiogenesis. Accordingly, fibroblasts were frequently located in the vicinity of capillary pericytes, which was followed by their detachment and migration. Moreover, besides inactive or even injured capillaries, the other ones exhibited extensive proteosynthetic activity linked to capillary growth, proliferation and migration of endothelial cells. The results strongly indicate enhanced triggering of the angiogenesis in L-NAME-induced NO-deficient hypertension., Ľ. Okruhlicová, N. Tribulová, I. Bernátová, O. Pecháňová., and Obsahuje bibliografii
High blood pressure (BP) of L-NAME hypertensive rats is maintained not only by the absence of nitric oxide (NO)-dependent vasodilatation but also by the enhancement of both sympathetic and angiotensin II-dependent vasoconstriction. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of inhibitory G (Gi) proteins, which are involv ed in tonic sympathetic vasoconstriction, in the pathogenesis of NO-deficient hypertension. We therefore studied BP response to chronic L-NAME administration (60 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks) in rats in which the in vivo inactivation of Gi proteins was induced by injection of pertussis toxin (PTX, 10 μg/kg i.v.). The impairment of sympathetic vasoconstriction due to PTX-induced Gi protein inactivation prevents the full development of NO-deficient hypertension because BP of PTX-treated rats subjected to chronic L-NAME administration did not reach hypertensive values. Nevertheless, chronic NO synthase inhibition per se is capable to increase moderately BP even in PTX-treated rats. Our data suggest that the sympathetic vasoconstriction is essential for the development of established NO-deficient hypertension., J. Zicha ... [et al.]., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
The nitric oxide/cGMP system has been shown to play a crucial role in the mechanism of learning and memory. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the inhibition of NO synthase in brain regions leads to alterations of spontaneous behavior in rats. Male Wistar rats were treated with NO synthase inhibitor NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) at the dose of 40 mg/kg/day. After 4 weeks of L-NAME treatment, NO synthase activity was significantly decreased by 75 % in the cerebellum, by 71 % in the cerebral cortex and by 72 % in the thoracic spinal cord. Decreased NO synthase activity in the nervous tissue was associated with decreased motor horizontal and vertical activities as well as by lowered frequency of sniffing, cleaning and defecation. It is concluded that the inhibition of NO synthase activity has a suppressive effect on spontaneous behavior of rats., L. Halčák, O. Pecháňová, Z. Žigová, L. Klemová, M. Novacký, I.

NG-nitro-D-arginine-methyl ester (D-NAME) is considered to be an inactive enantiomer of L-NAME and is generally used as the negative control for NO synthase inhibition with L-NAME. With the aim to compare the effects of 4-week L-NAME and D-NAME treatments on hemodynamic and cardiovascular structural parameters, four groups of male Wistar rats were investigated: the controls and groups administered 40 and 20 mg/kg/day of L-NAME and 40 mg/kg/day of D-NAME. At the end of the experiment, myocardial NO synthase activity decreased by 42, 24 and 25 %; aortic NO synthase activity decreased by 35, 15 and 13 % vs. controls in the L-NAME 40, L-NAME 20 and D-NAME 40 groups, respectively. The DNA concentrations in the myocardium and the aorta increased significantly after L-NAME and D-NAME treatments. The inhibition of NO synthase was accompanied by a significant elevation in systolic blood pressure in all three groups. The LVW/BW ratio increased by 27, 14 and 13 % vs. controls in the L-NAME 40, L-NAME 20 and D-NAME 40 groups, respectively. The aortic wall mass, measured as the crossectional area, increased by 45, 17 and 25 % vs. controls in the L-NAME 40, L-NAME 20 and D-NAME 40 groups, respectively. Myocardial fibrosis represented 0.94 % in the controls, but 7.96, 4.70 and 5.25 % in L-NAME 40, L-NAME 20 and D-NAME 40 groups, respectively. It is concluded that D-NAME, although less affective than L-NAME, inhibits NO synthase activity resulting in hemodynamic and structural changes in the cardiovascular system similar to the changes induced by half the dose of L-NAME. Thus, the consideration of D-NAME as an inactive enantiomer and its use as the negative control needs to be reevaluated., P. Babál, O. Pecháňová, I. Bernátová., and Obsahuje bibliografii
Although exposure to continuous light is associated with hypertension and modulates the outcome of ischemiareperfusion injury, less attention has been paid to its effects on cardiac morphology. We investigated whether 4-week exposure of experimental rats to continuous 24 h/day light can modify cardiac morphology, with focus on heart weight, fibrosis and collagen I/III ratio in correlation with NO-synthase expression. Two groups of male adult Wistar rats were studied: controls exposed to normal light/dark cycle (12 h/day light, 12 h/day dark) and rats exposed to continuous light. After 4 weeks of treatment the absolute and the relative heart weights were determined and myocardial fibrosis and collagen type I/III ratio were evaluated using picrosirius red staining. Endothelial and inducible NO-synthase expression was detected immunohistochemically. The exposure of rats to continuous light resulted in an increase of body weight with proportionally increased heart weight. Myocardial fibrosis remained unaffected but collagen I/III ratio increased. Neither endothelial nor inducible NO-synthase expression was altered in light-exposed rats. We conclude that the loss of structural homogeneity of the myocardium in favor of collagen type I might increase myocardial stiffness and contribute to functional alterations after continuous light exposure., L'.

Increased amount of collagen type I and decreased amount of type III is described in various pathological processes in the vascular wall. Polyphenols were shown to have protective effect on endothelium, decrease blood pressure and prevent oxidative damage induced by various stimuli. Tetrachlormethane (CCl4) is a toxic substance with known negative systemic effects induced by free radicals. Chronic administration of CCl4 for 12 weeks led to an increase of collagen type I and a decrease of type III in the wall of aorta. Parallel administration of red wine polyphenols significantly reduced the increase of collagen type I, at the same time the content of type III rose to the level above controls. After 4 weeks of spontaneous recovery no changes were observed. If polyphenols were administered during the recovery period, there was a decrease of type I and an increase of type III collagen content in the aorta. It can be concluded that polyphenols have a tendency to lower the amount of type I and to increase the proportion of type III collagen in the wall of the aorta. These changes are significant in prevention or in regression of changes induced by chronic oxidative stress. This effect of polyphenols is most likely the result of their influence on MMP-1 and TIMP activities through which they positively influence the collagen types I and III content ratio in the vascular wall in favor of the type III collagen., L.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism of vasorelaxant responses induced by red wine polyphenolic compounds (Provinol). Rings of rat femoral artery with or without functional endothelium were set up in a myograph for isometric recording and precontracted with phenylephrine (10-5 M). Provinol in cumulative doses (10-9 to 10-3 mg/ml) elicited endothelium- and dose-dependent relaxation of the artery with maximal relaxation of 56 % at the concentration of 10-5 mg/ml. The relaxant responses to Provinol correlated well with the increase of NO synthase activity in the vascular tissue after administration of cumulative doses of Provinol (10-9 to 10-3 mg/ml). NG-nitro-L-arginine methylester (L-NAME, 3x10-4 M) significantly attenuated the endothelium-dependent relaxation produced by Provinol. Administration of L-arginine (3x10-5 M) restored the relaxation inhibited by L-NAME. The relaxant responses of Provinol were abolished in the presence of Ca2+-entry blocker, verapamil (10-6 M). Administration of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) abolished acetylcholine (10-5 M)-induced relaxation of the rat femoral artery, while administration of Provinol (10-5 mg/ml) together with H2O2 helped to maintain the acetylcholine-induced relaxation. Provinol only partially affected the concentration-response curve for the NO donor sodium nitroprusside-induced relaxation in rings without endothelium. In conclusion, Provinol elicited endothelium-dependent relaxation of rat femoral artery by the Ca2+-induced increase of NO synthase activity and by protecting NO from degradation., W. Zenebe, O.

Flavonoids, polyphenol derivatives of plant origin, possess a broad range of pharmacological properties. A number of studies have found both pro/anti-apoptotic effects for many of these compounds. For these reasons we investigated whether ProvinolsTM, flavonoids obtained from red wine, have anti-apoptotic properties. The investigations have been carried out in rats treated with Cyclosporine A (CsA). In particular, four groups of rats have been treated for 21 days with either olive oil (control group), with CsA, with ProvinolsTM, or with CsA and ProvinolsTM simultaneously. Oxidative stress, systolic blood pressure, body weight, biochemical parameters and different markers of pro/anti-apoptotic pathway were measured. CsA produced an increase of systolic blood pressure, a decrease in body weight, serum creatinine levels, urinary total protein concentration and creatinine clearance. Moreover, CsA induced renal alterations and the translocation of Bax and cytochrome c from cytoplasm to mitochondria and vice versa. These changes activated the caspase cascade pathway, that leads to morphological and biochemical features of apoptosis. ProvinolsTM restored morphological and biochemical alterations and prevented nephrotoxicity. In conclusion, this study may augment our current understanding of the controversial pro-/anti-apoptotic properties of flavonoids and their molecular mechanisms., R. Rezzani ...

The present study was focused on regulatory role of nitric oxide on functional properties of the cardiac Na, K-ATPase in three various animal models of hypertension: spontaneously hypertensive male rats (SHR) with increased activity of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) by 60 % (Sh1), SHR with decreased activity of NOS by 40 % (Sh2) and rats with hypertension induced by L-NAME (40 mg/kg/day) with depressed activity of NOS by 72 % (LN). Studying the utilization of energy substrate we observed higher Na, K-ATPase activity in the whole concentration range of ATP in Sh1 and decreased activity in Sh2 and LN. Evaluation of kinetic parameters revealed an increase of Vmax value by 37 % in Sh1 and decrease by 30 % in Sh2 and 17 % in LN. The KM value remained unchanged in Sh2 and LN, but was lower by 38 % in Sh1 indicating increased affinity of the ATP binding site, as compared to controls. During the activation with Na+ we observed increased Vmax by 64 % and increased KNa by 106 % in Sh1. In Sh2 we found decreased Vmax by 40 % and increased KNa by 38 %. In LN, the enzyme showed unchanged Vmax with increased KNa by 50 %. The above data indicate a positive role of increased activity of NOS in improved utilization of ATP as well as enhanced binding of Na+ by the cardiac Na, K-ATPase., J. Vlkovičová, V. Javorková, L.

As wine polyphenols were show n to possess many positive effects in mammals, including improvement of vascular function, this study investigated the effect of the Slovak Alibernet red wine extract (AWE) on blood pressure and vascular function in young normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rats. Six weeks old, male, WKY and SHR were treated with AWE for three weeks at the dose of 24.2 mg/kg/day. Blood pressure (BP), determined by tail-cuff plethysmography, was significantly elevated in SHR vs. WKY and AWE failed to affect it. Lipid peroxidation was evaluated by determination of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances. Vascular function was assessed in rings of the femoral artery using Mulvany-Halpern’s myograph. Maximal endothelium-dependent acetylcholine (ACh)-induced rela xation was reduced in control SHR vs. WKY rats by approximatel y 9.3 %, which was associated with a significant decrease of its NO-independent component. AWE failed to affect maximal AC h-induced relaxation, both its NO-dependent and independen t components, compared to controls of the same genotype. AWE however reduced lipid peroxidation in the left ventricle of both WKY and SHR and in the liver of SHR. In conclusion, three-week administration of AWE failed to reduce BP and to improve endothelial function in the femoral arteries of both genotypes investigated., P. Bališ ...

It was previously shown that 4 hours´ lasting inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis by administration of an L-arginine analogue, the NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) changed the affinity of the Na-binding site of Na,K-ATPase thus resulting in elevation of enzyme activity especially at higher concentrations of sodium. Using the same experimental model, we focused our attention in the present study to the question of binding of ATP to the enzyme molecule in the left ventricle (LV), ventricular septum (S) and the right ventricle (RV) of the dog heart. Activation of the enzyme by increasing concentrations of ATP revealed a significant increase of the Vmax only in septum (by 38 %). The KM increased significantly in septum (by 40 %) and in left ventricle (by 56 %) indicating an altered sensitivity of the ATP-binding site of Na,K-ATPase in the hearts of NO-deficient animals. The alterations of Na,K-ATPase in its ability to bind and hydrolyze ATP are localized to the tissue surrounding the cavity of the left ventricle., N. Vrbjar, M. Strnisková, O. Pecháňová, M.

It is known that hypertension is accompanied by increased [Na+]i. The functional properties of Na,K-ATPase, which transports the Na+ out and K+ into myocardial cells during the relaxation phase, were investigated in the left ventricle (LV), septum (SV) and the right ventricle (RV) of anesthetized dogs with moderate acute blood pressure elevation elicited by short-term (4-hour) NO synthase inhibition. The NO-insufficiency was induced by administration of an L-arginine analogue, the NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). Concerning the function of Na,K-ATPase under the conditions of lowered NO synthesis, we focused our attention to the binding of Na+ to the enzyme molecule. Activation of the enzyme by increasing Na+ concentrations revealed significant changes in both the maximal velocity (Vmax) and the affinity for Na+ (KNa) in all investigated heart sections. The Vmax increased by 27 % in LV, by 87 % in SV and by 58 % in RV. The KNa value increased by 86 % in LV, by 105 % in SV and by 93% in RV, indicating an apparent decrease in the sensitivity of the Na+-binding site in the Na,K-ATPase molecule. This apparently decreased pump affinity for Na+ together with the increase of Vmax suggest that, during the short-term inhibition of NO synthesis, the Na,K-ATPase is capable of extruding the excessive Na+ from the myocardial cells more effectively at higher [Na+]i as compared to the Na,K-ATPase of control animals., N.
