20-HETE agonists and antagonists in the renal circulation

Abstract: The present study examined the effects of a series of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) derivatives on the diameter of renal arterioles to determine the structural requirements of the vasoconstrictor response to 20-HETE. The vascular responses to 5-, 8-, 12-, 15-, 19-, 20-, 21-HETEs, arachidonic acid (AA), and saturated, partially saturated, dimethyl, carboxyl, and 19-carbon derivatives of 20-HETE (10(-8) to 10(-6) M) were assessed in rat renal interlobular arteries (65-125 micrometer). 20-HETE, 21-HET… Show more

“…Activated platelets in clotting blood are the likely source of thromboxane and 12-HETE in CSF after SAH. 20-HETE is one of the major metabolites of AA produced by the cerebral vasculature (1,15,16,25) and by polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) (5,33). Thus the levels of 20-HETE in CSF were measured after SAH in the present study.…”

“…20-HETE increases vascular tone, in part, by inhibiting the activity of vascular smooth muscle K Ca channels, leading to membrane depolarization and a subsequent influx of calcium through L-type voltage-sensitive channels (1,18,52). When these channels were inhibited by TEA or IbTx before 20-HETE application, the arteriolar constriction to 20-HETE was dramatically reduced in rats fed normal salt but not in rats fed high salt (Fig.…”

“…Previous studies suggest that ANG II and norepinephrine (NE) may elicit vasoconstriction, in part, through 20-HETE production (1,20,24). Therefore, we also assessed arteriolar responsiveness to ANG II (1 ϫ 10 Ϫ9 M and 1 ϫ 10 Ϫ8 M, Sigma) and NE (1 ϫ 10 Ϫ7 M and 1 ϫ 10 Ϫ8 M, Sigma) before and after inhibition of 20-HETE formation with DDMS.…”

“…NO can also induce vasodilation by inhibiting -hydroxylase, resulting in a decrease in the vasoconstricting metabolite 20-HETE (Alonso-Galicia et al, 1998;Sun et al, 2000). Both of these mechanisms contribute to vasodilation in the brain (Alonso-Galicia et al, 1999). However, NO could also favor vasoconstriction.…”
