Abstract
Background/aim: Our recent study revealed that the expression of lipoxygenase (LOX) and cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes in the hypothalamus is activated by nesfatin-1, leading to the liberation of leukotrienes and prostaglandins (PG), respectively. Moreover, our prior report explained that intracerebroventricular (ICV) nesfatin-1 treatment triggers cardiovascular responses mediated by central LOX and COX enzymes. Building upon our prior reports, the present investigation sought to clarify the role of cardiovascularly active central COX products, such as thromboxane (TX) A2, PGF2α, PGE, and PGD, in orchestrating nesfatin-1-evoked reactions in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR).
Materials and methods: The Sprague Dawley rats, which had guide cannula in the lateral ventricle for intracerebroventricular (ICV) injections and catheter in arteria femoralis for monitoring MAP and HR, were underwent central pretreatment with furegrelate (the TXA2 synthase inhibitor), PGF2α-dimethylamine (PGF2α-DA, the PGF2α receptor antagonist), or AH6809 (the PGE and PGD receptor antagonist), 5 min prior to ICV nesfatin-1 administration. The cardiovascular parameters were observed and recorded for 60 min posttreatment.
Results: Nesfatin-1 induced cardiovascular responses in rats leading to pressor effect in MAP, and tachycardia following bradycardia in HR. Interestingly, ICV furegrelate, PGF2α-DA, or AH6809 pretreatment partially mitigated the cardiovascular effects revealed by nesfatin-1.
Conclusion: The findings illuminate the role of nesfatin-1 in modulating MAP and HR through the central activation of specifically TXA2, PGF2α, PGE, and PGD from COX metabolites. Additionally, the study may also suggest the potential involvement of other central COX or LOX metabolites beyond these COX metabolites in mediating the cardiovascular effects produced by nesfatin-1.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
