The effect of dynamic stretch on the reactivity of the rat tail and mesenteric artery segments was studied. Segments mounted on a myograph were stretched by a computer-controlled motorized micromanipulator. Dynamic stretch (1, 5 or 7 Hz) inhibited the artery constriction induced by noradrenaline (10 microM), 5-hydroxytryptamine (0.7 microM), or electrical field stimulation of intramural nerves. In contrast, dynamic stretch enhanced the tetrodotoxin-insensitive dilation induced by electrical field stimulation of noradrenaline-contracted arteries. Maximal increase of dilation evoked by electrical field stimulation (24.5 +/- 5.0% in mesenteric and 50.3 +/- 15.6% in the tail artery) was observed at a dynamic stretch-frequency of 5 Hz. An inhibitor of nitric oxide synthesis, NG-nitro-L-arginine (100 microM), abolished the difference in reactivity between static and dynamic conditions. The results indicate that dynamic stretch of the arteries activates nitric oxide synthesis/secretion, thus reducing constrictor and increasing dilator responses to the stimuli used. |
