| Popis: | Our previous studies in isolated endothelium-removed calf pulmonary arteries suggest that PO2-elicited responses are primarily mediated through modulation of guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate via changes in the generation of H2O2 originating from superoxide anion (O2-.) produced by NADH oxidase activity. In the present study we examined the importance of this mechanism in PO2-elicited responses of endothelium-removed calf coronary arteries. NADH oxidase activity was found to be the major source of O2-. in the homogenate of endothelium-removed calf coronary arteries detected by lucigenin-elicited chemiluminescence. Precontracted endothelium-removed calf coronary arteries show a relaxation to hypoxia, and reoxygenation causes a transient additional relaxation before the recovery of normoxic levels of force. Under these conditions the detection of O2-. was decreased by hypoxia and a transient overproduction was observed during reoxygenation. The relaxation to reoxygenation, but not to hypoxia, was significantly inhibited by a scavenger of O2-. that prevents the formation of H2O2 (nitro blue tetrazolium), an inhibitor of NAD(P)H oxidases and other O2(-.)-generating flavoproteins (diphenyliodonium), and inhibition of the stimulation of soluble guanylate cyclase (LY-83583). A scavenger of O2-. that promotes H2O2 formation (Tiron) did not inhibit the PO2-elicited responses examined. Hypoxia and diphenyliodonium (but not Tiron) decreased the metabolism of endogenous H2O2 by catalase (as measured by the H2O2-dependent co-oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde by catalase), and reoxygenation caused a stimulation of H2O2 metabolism by catalase. The presence of endothelium resulted in minor modifications of the PO2 responses, which were partially mediated via prostaglandins and nitric oxide on the basis of the effects of indomethacin and nitro-L-arginine, respectively. These results suggest that in calf coronary arteries the stimulation of guanylate cyclase via H2O2 originating from NADH-derived O2-(.) production contributes to the transient relaxation to posthypoxic reoxygenation, but not the response to hypoxia. |
