The effects of nonselective ETA/ETB receptor blockade with intravenous bolus injection of bosentan (10 mg/kg) on renal excretory function and blood pressure were investigated in conscious, male, normotensive Wistar rats before and one week after bilateral renal denervation. Renal denervation was followed by an increase in urine flow rate from 4.54±0.38 to 5.72±0.36 µl/min.100 g b.w. (p<0.05) and a decrease in urine osmolality from 855.5±44.6 to 707.4±47.5 mosm/kg H2O (p<0.05). Bosentan administration in sham-operated rats resulted in decrease in urine flow rate from 4.54±0.38 to 3.49±0.34 µl/min.100 g b.w. (p<0.05), and increase in urine osmolality from 855.5±44.6 to 1075.0±76.1 mosm/kg H2O (p<0.05). Sodium excretion decreased from 226.9±20.0 to 155.1±11.0 nmol/min.100 g b.w. (p<0.01). Bosentan administration in renal denervated rats did not produce any changes in renal water or electrolyte excretions. Blood pressure, heart rate, clearance of Inulin or clearance of paraaminohippuric acid (PAH) did not change in sham-operated or renal denervated rats during nonselective ETA/ETB receptor blockade. Bosentan did not alter the baroreflex sensitivity or sympatho-vagal balance in sham-operated or renal denervated rats. In conclusion, an interaction between renal nerves and endothelins appears to be involved in the regulation of the renal excretory function.
Data concerning cardiovascular effects of peripherally and centrally located histamine H3 receptor stimulation are contradictory, and despite excessive studies their role in the control of the cardiovascular function have not been cleared yet. Effect of histamine H3 receptors activation have been attributed to modulation of sympathetic system activity but exact role of peripherally and centrally located histamine H3 receptors stimulation in the modulation of vascular tone of the mesentery and intestinal metabolism remains unexplored. Aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of centrally and peripherally located histamine H3 receptors in the modulation of vascular tone of the mesentery and metabolic activity of intestinal tissue. In anesthetized rats total mesenteric blood flow (MBF), mucosal intestinal blood flow (LDBF), intestinal oxygen uptake (VO2) and arterial pressure (AP) were determined. Intestinal arterial conductance (C) was also calculated. Administration of the selective histamine H3 receptor agonist imetit (10 µmol/kg i.a) evoked marked changes in hemodynamic and metabolic parameters; MBF, LDBF, C and VO2 were significantly increased, whereas AP was significantly decreased. Pretreatment with histamine H3 receptor antagonist clobenpropit (4 µmol/kg i.a.) abolished imetit-induced circulatory and oxygen uptake responses. Clobenpropit (4 µmol/kg i.a.) alone failed to affect the MBF, LDBF, AP, C and VO2 values. Central administration of imetit (0.1 µmol i.c.v.) markedly increased AP and decreased MBF, LDBF, C and VO2. Pretreatment with histamine H3 receptor antagonist clobenpropit (0,4 µmol i.c.v.) diminished circulatory and metabolic responses to centrally injected imetit. Central histamine H3 receptors blockade by clobenpropit evoked no significant changes in the mesenteric arterial and mucosal microcirculatory blood flow, intestinal metabolism and mean arterial pressure. We conclude that, peripheral histamine H3 receptors when stimulated decreases vasoconstrictory tone of the mesenteric artery and precapillary structures and evokes increase of intestinal oxygen uptake. This might be in part due to inhibition of sympathetic postganglionic fibers vasopressor activity. Central histamine H3 receptor stimulation activates vasoconstrictory sympathetic adrenergic system with possible involvement of other, presumably non-histaminergic receptors system. At basal conditions neither central nor peripheral histamine H3 receptors are involved in the control of mesenteric macro - and microcirculation and intestinal oxygen consumption.
PDGF is one of the most potent serum mitogens, and the signalling mechanism by way of its receptor tyrosine-kinase has been extensively studied since its first purifica­tion in 1979. The identification of homology between the simian sarcoma virus onco­gene, v-sis, and the B-chain of PDGF, as well as the frequent over-expression of both the ligands and receptors in various tumours and stroma led to the proposal of the PDGF-mediated autocrine and paracrine hypothesis. Consistent with the important roles of PDGF in the growth and survival of cells, the expression and activity of PDGF receptors are tightly controlled by both positive and negative feedback mechanisms at different levels. The deregulation of the control system can result in serious pathological conditions such as chronic inflammation and tumours. Understanding the molecular mechanisms for the regulatory system and the signalling pathway of PDGF is essential in order to find effective therapies in the diseases where PDGF is involved.
