To study the effects of high glucose on endothelium-dependent relaxation (EDR) and the action of L-arginine, superoxide dismutase (SOD), or glucose re-normalization in aorta.
Measurement of EDR of the isolated rabbit thoracic aortic rings.
Elevated glucose (25 mmol.L-1) caused profound impairment of acetylcholine (ACh)-induced relaxation, EC50: 1.6 mumol.L-1 (95% CL: 7.9 nmol.L(-1)-6.3 mumol.L-1) vs normal glucose (5.5 mmol.L-1) EC50: 0.08 mumol.L-1 (95% CL: 0.02 mumol.L(-1)-0.3 mumol.L-1) (P < 0.01), which not reversed followed by a further 24 h incubation in normal glucose M199, EC50: 2.0 mumol.L-1 (95% CL: 0.2 pmol.L(-1)-12.5 mumol.L-1). However, aortic rings incubated with mannitol (19.5 mmol.L-1) relaxed to ACh normally. L-arginine 1 mmol.L-1 or SOD 150 U.L-1 restored ACh relaxation in elevated glucose to normal, EC50: 0.16 mumol.L-1 (95% CL: 0.04 mumol.L(-1)-0.8 mumol.L-1) and 0.16 mumol.L-1 (95% CL: 0.03-0.63 mumol.L-1). The relaxation in response to sodium nitroprusside was not different between rings exposed to normal or elevated glucose.
Hyperglycemia impaired EDR, which was not reversible by glucose re-normalization, increased free radical production and altered L-arginine metabolism were involved in this endothelium dysfunction.
研究高糖对主动脉内皮依赖性舒张(EDR)的影响以及L-精氨酸、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)或血糖恢复正常化的作用。
测量离体兔胸主动脉环的EDR。
高糖(25 mmol·L-1)导致乙酰胆碱(ACh)诱导的舒张功能严重受损,半数有效浓度(EC50):1.6 μmol·L-1(95%可信区间:7.9 nmol·L-1 - 6.3 μmol·L-1),而正常血糖(5.5 mmol·L-1)时EC50:0.08 μmol·L-1(95%可信区间:0.02 μmol·L-1 - 0.3 μmol·L-1)(P < 0.01),在正常葡萄糖M199中再孵育24小时后未逆转,EC50:2.0 μmol·L-1(95%可信区间:0.2 pmol·L-1 - 12.5 μmol·L-1)。然而,用甘露醇(19.5 mmol·L-1)孵育的主动脉环对ACh舒张正常。1 mmol·L-1的L-精氨酸或150 U·L-1的SOD可将高糖状态下ACh诱导的舒张恢复正常,EC50分别为:0.16 μmol·L-1(95%可信区间:0.04 μmol·L-1 - 0.8 μmol·L-1)和0.16 μmol·L-1(95%可信区间:0.03 - 0.63 μmol·L-1)。暴露于正常或高糖环境的主动脉环对硝普钠的舒张反应无差异。
高血糖损害了EDR,血糖恢复正常化不能逆转这种损害,自由基生成增加和L-精氨酸代谢改变参与了这种内皮功能障碍。
