The effect of endothelin on renin release from isolated rat glomeruli was examined. Endothelin inhibited basal renin release in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 of 1.0 x 10(-9) M. Endothelin also inhibited renin release stimulated by isoproterenol (10(-5) M). Nifedipine (10(-5) M), a calcium channel blocker, induced an increase in renin release. Endothelin did not affect this nifedipine-induced renin release. These results suggest that endothelin inhibits renin release via a calcium entry mechanism and increases intracellular calcium.
研究了内皮素对离体大鼠肾小球肾素释放的影响。内皮素以剂量依赖性方式抑制基础肾素释放,IC50为1.0×10(-9)M。内皮素还抑制异丙肾上腺素(10(-5)M)刺激的肾素释放。钙通道阻滞剂硝苯地平(10(-5)M)可诱导肾素释放增加。内皮素不影响硝苯地平诱导的肾素释放。这些结果表明,内皮素通过钙内流机制抑制肾素释放并增加细胞内钙。
