The effect of reactive oxygen on cytosolic free calcium concentration [( Ca++]i) in pig aortic endothelial cells (ECs) was studied. Linoleate hydroperoxide (LHO) and superoxide radicals generated from xanthine with xanthine oxidase (X-XO) were used as sources of reactive oxygen. [Ca++]i in ECs was measured with quin 2 and the value for quiescent ECs was 112 +/- 11 nM. Both LHO and X-XO increased [Ca++]i in a dose-dependent manner without accompanying the significant cellular damage. Nifedipine suppressed the increase in [Ca++]i provoked by LHO and X-XO. Thus, the biological effects of reactive oxygen might be mediated, at least in part, by the activation of voltage-dependent calcium channels in ECs.
研究了活性氧对猪主动脉内皮细胞(ECs)胞质游离钙浓度[(Ca++]i)的影响。以亚油酸氢过氧化物(LHO)和黄嘌呤与黄嘌呤氧化酶(X-XO)产生的超氧自由基作为活性氧来源。用喹啉2测定ECs中的[Ca++]i,静息ECs的值为112±11 nM。LHO和X-XO均以剂量依赖性方式增加[Ca++]i,且不伴有明显的细胞损伤。硝苯地平抑制LHO和X-XO引起的[Ca++]i升高。因此,活性氧的生物学效应可能至少部分是由ECs中电压依赖性钙通道的激活介导的。
