Objective: Earlier, we reported that high insulin incubation in vitro leads to increased ETA receptor expression in cultured rat aortic smooth muscle cells (Diabetes 1998, 47: 934–944). Our later observation of enhanced endothelin-1 evoked vasocons

Since the discovery of endothelin-1 as the most potent endothelial-derived vasoconstrictor/mitogenic peptide a decade ago, considerable evidence has implicated this peptide in various cardiovascular disease states, including diabetes mellitus. Plasma

The presence of arginine vasopressin (AVP) V1 receptors on neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCs) linked to processes capable of elevating intracellular free calcium ([Ca2+]i) is now firmly established. This study examined the sources and signaling invol

Phosphatidic acid (PA), which can be synthesized de novo, or as a product of phosphatidylcholine hydrolysis and/or phosphorylation of 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG), mediates diverse cellular functions in various cell types, including cardiomyocytes. We se

The direct vascular effect of pneumadin (PN) was determined by studying the changes in intracellular free calcium ([Ca 2+ ] i ) levels in cultured rat aortic smooth muscle cells maintained between the second and fifth passages. PN evoked a rapid, con

While alterations in the release and action of endothelial derived vasoactive factors such as endothelin-1 and endothelial derived relaxing factor (EDRF) occur in diabetes mellitus, the nature and direction of these changes is controversial. We exami

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) has been shown to promote vascular smooth muscle cell hypertrophy and hyperplasia of fibroblasts. The present study examines the effect of AVP and endothelin-1 (ET-1) on protein, DNA, and RNA synthesis in primary cultures o

Although insulin has been shown to raise plasma concentrations of endothelin (ET) and up regulate vascular smooth muscle ETA receptor expression, the interaction of vanadate, an insulinomimetic agent, with the vascular ET system has not been investig

While insulin is known to promote vascular smooth muscle (VSM) relaxation, it also enhances endothelin-1 (ET-1) secretion and action in conditions such as NIDDM and hypertension. We examined the effect of insulin pretreatment on intracellular free ca

The effects of insulin (10 nM) and sodium orthovanadate (SOV, 25 μM) pretreatment for 24 h on endothelin-l (ET-1) and IRL-1620 (ET B agonist)-evoked increases in intracellular free calcium levels [Ca 2+ ] i were determined by fura-2 fluorescence met
