In this study, we investigated whether PKCβ is associated with vascular contractile changes induced by angiotensin II (Ang II) exposure. Long-term (24 h) treatment of rat aortae and mesenteric arteries in Ang II-containing culture medium enhanced 5-hydroxytrypatamine (5-HT)-induced vascular contraction in a dose-dependent manner, in association with enhanced phosphorylation of PKCβ S660. Increased contraction induced by Ang II treatment was also observed in endothelium-denuded aorta. Enhanced contraction induced by Ang II was markedly diminished by knockout of the PKCβ gene or treatment with LY333531 and CGP53353 (PKCβ inhibitors). Cycloheximide (protein synthesis inhibitor) blocked the Ang II-induced enhanced contraction. Gene expression profiling and real-time PCR analyses showed marked upregulation of endothelin-1 (ET-1) expression in Ang II-treated aorta, but was not observed in PKCβ-knockout aorta. Ang II increased the secretion of ET-1 peptide in endothelium-intact and -denuded aortae. Ang II-induced enhancement of vascular contraction was diminished by BQ-123 (ET<sub>A</sub>R blocker). <i>In vivo</i> treatment with Ang II (250 ng/kg/min) for 7 days increased phosphorylation of PKCβ S660 in rat vascular tissue and increased the <i>in vitro</i> contractile responses to 5-HT and <i>in vivo</i> systolic blood pressure, but these changes were largely absent in PKCβ-knockout experiments. These data suggest that long-term exposure to Ang II increases vascular smooth muscle contraction and blood pressure elevation, mediated by activation of PKCβ and subsequent biosynthesis of ET-1 in vascular smooth muscle cells.</p>","PeriodicalId":7692,"journal":{"name":"American journal of physiology.

Carotid arteries are responsible for the majority of the blood flow to the brain/head, and carotid artery dysfunction is associated with life-threating cardiovascular events, such as stroke. However, whether prenatal hypoxia exposure impacts the function of the carotid arteries in the adult offspring is not known. We hypothesize that prenatal hypoxia impairs carotid artery function in the adult male and female offspring. Sprague Dawley rats were exposed to normoxia (21% O<sub>2</sub>) or hypoxia (11% O<sub>2</sub>) from gestational day (GD) 15 to 21 (term=22 days; n=9-11/group). Carotid arteries were isolated from the 4-month-old adult male and female offspring. Vasoconstrictor and vasodilatory properties were assessed by wire myography, and biomechanical properties (myogenic tone, circumferential stress and strain) by pressure myography. Collagen deposition (Masson's trichrome stain) and elastin density (Verhoeff stain) were measured in carotid artery cryosections. Prenatal hypoxia did not impact vasoconstriction or vasorelaxation responses in carotid arteries from both offspring. However, in males, prenatal hypoxia reduced carotid artery myogenic tone development and increased circumferential strain, which coincided with a lower collagen deposition and higher elastin density. In females, prenatal hypoxia tended to lower carotid artery circumferential strain (i.e., increased stiffness), without differences in myogenic tone or collagen/elastin density. Altogether, these data show that prenatal hypoxia exposure affects the carotid arteries of the adult offspring in a sex-specific manner, which may impact the blood flow regulation to the brain.</p>","PeriodicalId":7692,"journal":{"name":"American journal of physiology.

We generated a mouse model of cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of beta-1 adrenergic receptor (ADRB1) , the primary subtype expressed in cardiac myocytes, and demonstrated the role for ADRB1 in the maintenance of cardiac function at baseline and during exposure to increase in cardiac afterload by transient aortic occlusion and increasing heart rates (HRs) via atrial pacing. cKO hearts showed mildly depressed baseline left ventricular (LV) function, including slower HR, decreased contractility (dP/dtmax/IP) and prolonged relaxation (Tau) at baseline in both sexes. Exposure to increased LV afterload depressed LV function in either genotype similarly; however, the functional recovery following the removal of the afterload was severely impaired in cKO hearts, while cardiac function was immediately normalized in WT hearts. When HR was altered from 400 to 700bpm, cKO hearts were deficient in HR-dependent improvement of cardiac contractility and relaxation, known as positive force frequency relationship, that was evident in WT hearts. Enhanced phosphorylation of phospholamban by the HR increase was markedly blunted in cKO myocardium vs wild types, while CaMKII phosphorylation was comparable between the genotypes, suggesting the critical involvement of PKA.

This phenomenon is characterized by sterile inflammation and the exaggerated development of fibrotic tissue, which is non-contractile and poorly conductive, responsible for organ dysfunction and heart failure. At present, specific therapies are lacking for both prevention and treatment of this condition, and no biomarkers are currently validated to identify at-risk patients. Physiopathological understanding of this process is limited, probably due to the combination of the multi-cellular responses involved that are initially necessary for tissue healing but may be detrimental on longer term. Current research focuses on understanding and modulating the inflammatory response, a key aspect of the tissue healing process. Inflammation is triggered by the release of inflammatory mediators from cardiomyocytes undergoing cell death in the context of ischemia-reperfusion injury. Among them, extracellular ATP is a strong mediator of inflammation through the activation of P2 purinergic receptors, regulating the behavior of all the cellular actors of the post-myocardial infarction response and impacting organ function and recovery. Rather than considering each cellular protagonist independently, this review provides an integrated overview of the inflammatory and tissue response to myocardial infarction by members of the P2 receptor family. Finally, it explores the possibility of reducing pathological left ventricular remodeling through the modulation of these receptors and their associated signaling pathways.</p>","PeriodicalId":7692,"journal":{"name":"American journal of physiology.

We hypothesized that TAC (transverse aortic constriction) exacerbates immune cell homing to the gut (small intestine and colon), promoting dysbiosis and gut leakage in IL-10 KO mice. HF was induced in 8-10 weeks old C57BL/6J wild-type (WT) and B6.129P2-Il10tm1Cgn/J mutant (IL-10 KO) male and female mice by TAC and cardiac function was measured using visual sonics VEVO 3100. Fourteen days post-TAC, levels of monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, and proinflammatory cytokines were measured in blood and gut. Gut dysbiosis was assessed via 16S rRNA sequencing in feces at 56 days post-TAC. IL-10 KO mice showed worsened cardiac dysfunction post-TAC. TAC worsened monocytes, and neutrophils infiltration in systemic circulation and facilitated their homing to the gut in IL-10 KO mice. Intriguingly, proinflammatory cytokines level was increased in blood, and gut of IL-10 KO mice following TAC. Furthermore, IL-10 expression was reduced in the colon of WT mice post-TAC. Moreover, TAC exacerbated gut dysbiosis in IL-10 KO mice. Finally, an impaired intestinal permeability was noted in IL-10 KO mice post-TAC.
