Protein kinase C (PKC) involved in enhancement of α1-adrenoceptor-mediated responses of the main pulmonary artery in rats with diabetes mellitus

Abstract: Diabetes mellitus (DM) causes multiple dysfunctions including circulatory disorders such as cardiomyopathy, angiopathy, atherosclerosis and arterial hypertension. Moreover, DM can strongly affect pulmonary circulation, enhancing the wall thickness of the pulmonary arteries, changing their tone and contractility, and gas exchange in the lungs. It can lead to marked loss of lung function and respiratory efficiency. It is also known that protein kinase C (PKC) activity increases in DM and that PKC is involved in … Show more

“…The primary cause of the pathogenesis of coronary heart disease and atherosclerotic vascular damage is a deficiency of NO in the vascular endothelium and myocardium [ 23 ]. There are several factors causing endothelial NO deficiency: a decrease in eNOS activity [ 24 ], destruction or capture of NO by free radicals, and/or a weakening of the effect of NO on smooth muscle [ 25 ].…”

“…In particular, in most clinical studies ( 21 23 ), in patients with stage II hypertension (HT), a decrease in NO x levels was detected, which is quite common in the context of endothelial dysfunction. Deficiency of endothelial NO can be caused by several factors: a decrease in eNOS activity ( 21 ), destruction or capture of NO by free radicals, and/or a weakening of the effect of NO on smooth muscle ( 22 ). Reduced vasodilator function of the endothelium is an important link in the pathogenesis of HT.…”

“…Показано, що за умов ЦД у легеневій артерії посилюється активність протеїнкінази С в ендотелії, що призводить до зростання скоротиливості основних легеневих артерій [61]. Але загалом її значення в змінах регуляції судинного тонусу легеневих артерій під впливом ЦД вивчене недостатньо.…”
