Developmental acceleration of bradykinin-dependent relaxation by prenatal chronic hypoxia impedes normal development after birth

Abstract: -Bradykinin-induced activation of the pulmonary endothelium triggers nitric oxide production and other signals that cause vasorelaxation, including stimulation of largeconductance Ca 2ϩ -activated K ϩ (BKCa) channels in myocytes that hyperpolarize the plasma membrane and decrease intracellular Ca 2ϩ . Intrauterine chronic hypoxia (CH) may reduce vasorelaxation in the fetal-to-newborn transition and contribute to pulmonary hypertension of the newborn. Thus we examined the effects of maturation and CH on the rol… Show more

“…These data are consistent with a study showing that perinatal hypoxia results in an impaired vasodilator response to bradykinin in isolated pulmonary small arteries of lambs (Blum‐Johnston et al. ). We have previously shown that pulmonary vasodilation to bradykinin is largely NO‐dependent (de Wijs‐Meijler et al.…”

“…; Blum‐Johnston et al. ), and we have previously shown that neonatal hypoxia‐induced pulmonary vascular alterations persist for several weeks following re‐exposure to normoxia (de Wijs‐Meijler et al. 2017c), we investigated the functionality of different parts of this pathway in our model of neonatal hypoxia‐induced PH.…”

“…The biophysical properties, signaling targets, and endogenous regulators of TRPV4 sparklets in small PAs remain unknown. Endothelium‐derived nitric oxide (NO) is thought to be the predominant vasodilator in the pulmonary circulation 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. Increase in global Ca 2+ has long been associated with activation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS).…”
