To determine the role of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and its receptors in the regulation of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) release, male Wistar rats were divided into six groups and subjected to the following treatments for 1 wk with or without ABT-627 (an ET(A) receptor antagonist, 5 mg.kg(-1).day(-1) in drinking water) or A-192621 (an ET(B)-receptor antagonist, 30 mg.kg(-1).day(-1) by oral gavage): control (Con), ET-1 (5 ng.kg(-1).min(-1) iv), Con + ABT-627, Con + A-192621, ET-1 + ABT-627, and ET-1 + A-192621. Baseline mean arterial pressure (MAP, mmHg) was higher (P < 0.05) in Con + A-192621 (122 +/- 4) and ET-1 + A-192621 (119 +/- 4) groups compared with Con (104 +/- 6), ET1 (106 +/- 3), Con + ABT-627 (104 +/- 3), and ET1 + ABT-627 (100 +/- 3) groups. Intravenous administration of CGRP(8-37) (a CGRP receptor antagonist, 1 mg/kg) increased MAP (P < 0.05) in ET-1 (13 +/- 1), Con + A-192621 (12 +/- 1), and ET-1 + A-192621 (15 +/- 3) groups compared with Con (4 +/- 1), Con-ABT-627 (4 +/- 1), and ET-1 + ABT-627 (5 +/- 1) groups. Plasma CGRP levels (in pg/ml) were increased (P < 0.05) in ET-1 (57.5 +/- 6.1), Con + A-192621 (53.9 +/- 3.4), and ET-1 + A-192621 (60.4 +/- 3.0) groups compared with Con (40.4 +/- 1.6), Con + ABT-627 (40.0 +/- 2.9), and ET-1 + ABT-627 (42.6 +/- 1.9) groups. Plasma ET-1 levels (in pg/ml) were higher (P < 0.05) in ET-1 (2.8 +/- 0.2), ET-1 + ABT-627 (3.2 +/- 0.4), Con + A-192621 (3.3 +/- 0.4), and ET-1 + A-192621 (4.6 +/- 0.3) groups compared with Con (1.1 +/- 0.2) and Con-ABT-627 (1.3 +/- 0.2) groups. Therefore, our data show that ET-1 infusion leads to increased CGRP release via activation of the ET(A) receptor, which plays a compensatory role in preventing ET-1-induced elevation in blood pressure.
为了确定内皮素 -1(ET -1)及其受体在降钙素基因相关肽(CGRP)释放调节中的作用,将雄性Wistar大鼠分为六组,并进行以下处理1周,同时给予或不给予ABT -627(一种ET(A)受体拮抗剂,饮用水中浓度为5 mg·kg⁻¹·d⁻¹)或A -192621(一种ET(B)受体拮抗剂,经口灌胃剂量为30 mg·kg⁻¹·d⁻¹):对照组(Con)、ET -1组(5 ng·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹静脉注射)、Con + ABT -627组、Con + A -192621组、ET -1 + ABT -627组和ET -1 + A -192621组。与Con组(104 ± 6)、ET1组(106 ± 3)、Con + ABT -627组(104 ± 3)和ET1 + ABT -627组(100 ± 3)相比,Con + A -192621组(122 ± 4)和ET -1 + A -192621组(119 ± 4)的基线平均动脉压(MAP,mmHg)更高(P < 0.05)。与Con组(4 ± 1)、Con - ABT -627组(4 ± 1)和ET -1 + ABT -627组(5 ± 1)相比,静脉注射CGRP(8 - 37)(一种CGRP受体拮抗剂,1 mg/kg)可使ET -1组(13 ± 1)、Con + A -192621组(12 ± 1)和ET -1 + A -192621组(15 ± 3)的MAP升高(P < 0.05)。与Con组(40.4 ± 1.6)、Con + ABT -627组(40.0 ± 2.9)和ET -1 + ABT -627组(42.6 ± 1.9)相比,ET -1组(57.5 ± 6.1)、Con + A -192621组(53.9 ± 3.4)和ET -1 + A -192621组(60.4 ± 3.0)的血浆CGRP水平(pg/ml)升高(P < 0.05)。与Con组(1.1 ± 0.2)和Con - ABT -627组(1.3 ± 0.2)相比,ET -1组(2.8 ± 0.2)、ET -1 + ABT -627组(3.2 ± 0.4)、Con + A -192621组(3.3 ± 0.4)和ET -1 + A -192621组(4.6 ± 0.3)的血浆ET -1水平(pg/ml)更高(P < 0.05)。因此,我们的数据表明,输注ET -1通过激活ET(A)受体导致CGRP释放增加,ET(A)受体在预防ET -1诱导的血压升高中起代偿作用。
