While the bioconversion of nitrite to NO occurs via either nonenzymatic or enzymatic reduction under acidic or hypoxic conditions, little is known about its conversion to NO under normoxic conditions. Because of a recent report of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2)-catalyzed glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) vasorelaxation by denitration of GTN to 1,2-glyceryl dinitrate (1,2-GDN) and nitrite, we therefore investigated a catalytic activity of ALDH2 for nitrite reduction and subsequent effect on N(ω)-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME)-induced hypertension in normoxic rat. Male Sprague-Dawley rats treated with l-NAME in drinking water for 3 weeks developed hypertension with significantly reduced plasma levels of nitrite and nitrate. The intravenous injection of sodium nitrite lowered the arterial pressure in a dose-dependent manner (17, 50 and 150 μmol/kg). Pretreatment with ALDH2 inhibitors (cyanamide and chloral hydrate) partially inhibited the hypotensive responses to sodium nitrite. In addition, cyanamide significantly delayed the nitrite clearance from plasma and most of the organs examined during the experimental period. These results suggest that ALDH2 may be at least in part involved in nitrite-mediated hypotensive effects and nitrite catalysis in many organs of normoxic rats.</p>","PeriodicalId":286988,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and Experimental Hypertension (New York, N.y. : 1993)","volume":" ","pages":"410-8"},"PeriodicalIF":12.3,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3109/10641963.2013.846355","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40270871","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study is to present whether the serum urotensin II levels are different in patients with dipper and non-dipper hypertension and to put forward the effects causing this difference, if there are any. Patients recently diagnosed with hypertension were included in the study. With ambulatory BP monitoring, 81 patients with high BP were divided into two groups, dipper (n = 40) and non-dipper (n = 41). Serum urotensin II levels were analyzed by ELISA method. Serum urotensin II levels were higher in patients with non-dipper hypertension than in patients with dipper hypertension (204 [106–533] vs. 140 [96–309], P = .004). There was a positive correlation between total systolic BP and serum urotensin II levels (r = 0.408 and P = .009), but the relation in the non-dipper hypertension group was not significant (r = 0.194 and P = .2). In conclusion, serum urotensin II levels were higher in non-dipper HT patients than dipper HT patients. This higher urotensin II level might be responsible for poor prognoses.","PeriodicalId":286988,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and Experimental Hypertension (New York, N.y. : 1993)","volume":" ","pages":"506-11"},"PeriodicalIF":12.3,"publicationDate":"2013-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3109/10641963.2012.758276","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40220405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
