AB  - Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) represents the third and the youngest member of the gaseous transmitters family. The dominant effect of H2S on isolated vessels is vasodilation. As the mechanism of H2S-induced relaxation in human vessels remains unclear, the present study aimed to investigate the effects of H2S donor, sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS), on isolated human saphenous vein (HSV) and to determine the mechanism of action. Our results showed that NaHS (1 µM–3 mM) induced a concentration-dependent relaxation of endothelium-intact HSV rings pre-contracted by phenylephrine. Pre-treatment with L-NAME, ODQ and KT5823 significantly inhibited NaHS-induced relaxation, while indomethacin induced partial inhibition. Among K+ channel blockers, the combination of apamin and TRAM-34 significantly affected the relaxation produced by NaHS, while iberiotoxin and glibenclamide only reduced maximal relaxation of HSV. NaHS partially relaxed endothelium-intact rings pre-contracted by high K+, as well as phenylephrine-contracted rings in the presence of nifedipine. Additionally, the incubation of HSV rings with NaHS increased NO production. These results demonstrate that NaHS produces the concentration- and endothelium-dependent relaxation of isolated HSV. Vasorelaxation to NaHS probably involves activation of NO/cGMP/PKG pathway and partially prostacyclin. In addition, different K+ channels subtypes, especially SKCa and IKCa, as well as BKCa and KATP channels in high concentrations of NaHS, probably participate in the NaHS-induced vasorelaxation.

AB  - Gasotransmitters exert part of their impact on the organism via regulation of ion channels, especially potassium (K+) channels. Altered structure/function of ion channels, as well disorders of the metabolism and/or levels of the gasotransmitters are associated with several pathophysiological conditions, including cardiovascular diseases.The principal aim of our study was to investigate the mechanisms of vasodilator action of nicorandil, a nitric oxide (NO) donor, and of sodium hydrosulfide, a hydrogen sulfide (H2S) donor, on the isolated human internal thoracic artery and saphenous vein.Discarded segments of the internal thoracic artery and saphenous vein were collected from patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. The investigation was performed in vitro in an isolated organs system. Concentration-response curves were constructed on pre-contracted preparations with and without endothelium in the presence/absence of K+ channel blockers and/or cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway inhibitors.Our results showed that nicorandil and sodium hydrosulfide cause a concentration-dependent relaxation of the isolated human saphenous vein and internal thoracic artery pre-contracted by phenylephrine. Nicorandil exerts endothelium-independent and sodium hydrosulfide endothelium-dependent relaxation of both blood vessels. cGMP signalling pathway plays a significant role in the vasorelaxant effect of nicorandil. Also, sodium hydrosulfide mechanism of action involves enhancement of the NO/cGMP signalling pathway in both vessels. Potassium channels contribute to the relaxant effect of both investigated agents, although differences exist in K+ channel subtypes and their relative importance.Since the spasm of saphenous vein and internal thoracic artery still occurs in clinical settings, and its prevention and reversion is still challenging, the results of our study may indicate new targets in the treatment of bypass grafts spasm, and potentially provide a pharmacological basis for the development of new vasodilator drugs.

AB  - In this study, we aimed to investigate relaxant effect of flavanol (-)-epicatechin on the isolated human saphenous vein (HSV), as a part of its cardioprotective action, and to define the mechanisms underlying this vasorelaxation. (-)-Epicatechin induced a concentration-dependent relaxation of HSV pre-contracted by phenylephrine. Among K+ channel blockers, 4-aminopyridine, margatoxin, and iberiotoxin significantly inhibited relaxation of HSV, while glibenclamide considerably reduced effects of the high concentrations of (-)-epicatechin. Additionally, (-)-epicatechin relaxed contraction induced by 80 mM K+, whereas in the presence of nifedipine produced partial relaxation of HSV rings pre-contracted by phenylephrine. In Ca2+-free solution, (-)-epicatechin relaxed contraction induced by phenylephrine, but had no effect on contraction induced by caffeine. A sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor, thapsigargin, significantly reduced relaxation of HSV produced by (-)-epicatechin. These results demonstrate that (-)-epicatechin produces endothelium-independent relaxation of isolated HSV rings. Vasorelaxation to (-)-epicatechin probably involves activation of 4-aminopyridine- and margatoxin-sensitive K-V channels, BKCa channels, and at least partly, K-ATP channels. In addition, not only the inhibition of extracellular Ca2+ influx, but regulation of the intracellular Ca2+ release, via inositol-trisphosphate receptors and reuptake into sarcoplasmic reticulum, via stimulation of Ca2+-ATPase, as well, most likely participate in (-)-epicatechin-induced relaxation of HSV.

AB  - The aim of the present study was to investigate and characterize vasorelaxant effect of procyanidin B2 on human internal mammary artery (HIMA) as one of the mechanisms of its protective effect against vascular risk. Procyanidin B2 induced strong concentration-dependent relaxation of HIMA rings pre-contracted by phenylephrine. Pretreatment with L-NAME, a NO synthase inhibitor, hydroxocobalamin, a NO scavenger, and ODQ, an inhibitor of soluble guanylate cyclase, significantly inhibited procyanidin B2-induced relaxation of HIMA, while indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, considerably reduced effects of low concentrations. Among K+ channel blockers, iberiotoxin, a selective blocker of large conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels (BKCa), abolished procyanidin B2-induced relaxation, glibenclamide, a selective ATP-sensitive K+(K-ATP) channels blocker, induced partial inhibition, while 4-aminopyridine, a blocker of voltage-gated K+(K-V) channels, and TRAM-34, an inhibitor of intermediate-conductance Ca2+-activated K+(IKCa) channels, slightly reduced maximal relaxation of HIMA. Further, procyanidin B2 relaxed contraction induced by phenylephrine in Ca2+-free Krebs solution, but had no effect on contraction induced by caffeine. Finally, thapsigargin, a sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor, significantly reduced relaxation of HIMA produced by procyanidin B2. These results demonstrate that procyanidin B2 produces endothelium-dependent relaxation of HIMA pre-contracted by phenylephrine. This effect is primarily the result of an increased NO synthesis and secretion by endothelial cells and partially of prostacyclin, although it involves activation of BKCa and K-ATP, as well as K-V and IKCa channels in high concentrations of procyanidin B2.

AB  - As we previously demonstrated the role of different K+ channels in the action of nicorandil on human saphenous vein (HSV) and human internal mammary artery (HIMA), this study aimed to analyse the contribution of the cGMP pathway in nicorandil-induced vasorelaxation and to determine the involvement of cGMP in the K+ channel-activating effect of nicorandil. An inhibitor of soluble guanylate cyclase (GC), ODQ, significantly inhibited nicorandil-induced relaxation, while ODQ plus glibenclamide, a selective ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channel inhibitor, produced a further inhibition of both vessels. In HSV, ODQ in combination with 4-aminopyridine, a blocker of voltage-gated K+ (K-V) channels, did not modify the concentration-response to nicorandil compared with ODQ, whereas in HIMA, ODQ plus iberiotoxin, a selective blocker of large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) channels, produced greater inhibition than ODQ alone. We showed that the cGMP pathway plays a significant role in the vasorelaxant effect of nicorandil on HSV and HIMA. It seems that nicorandil directly opens KATP channels in both vessels and BKCa channels in HIMA, although it is possible that stimulation of GC contributes to KATP channels activation in HIMA. Contrary, the activation of K-V channels in HSV is probably due to GC activation and increased levels of cGMP.

AB  - Evidences have suggested that flavanol compound (-)-epicatechin is associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases. One of the mechanisms of its cardioprotective effect is vasodilation. However, the exact mechanisms by which (-)-epicatechin causes vasodilation are not yet clearly defined. The aims of the present study were to investigate relaxant effect of flavanol (-)-epicatechin on the isolated human internal mammary artery (HIMA) and to determine the mechanisms underlying its vasorelaxation. Our results showed that (-)-epicatechin induced a concentration-dependent relaxation of RNA rings pre-contracted by phenylephrine. Among the K+ channel blockers, 4-aminopyricline (4-AP) and margatoxin, blockers of voltage gated K+ (K-V) channels, and glibenclamide, a selective ATP sensitive K+ (K-ATP,) channels blocker, partly inhibited the (-)-epicatechin-induced relaxation of HIMA, while iberiotoxin, a most selective blocker of large conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels (BKCa), almost completely inhibited the relaxation. In rings pre-contracted by 80 mM K+, (-)-epicatechin induced partial relaxation of HIMA, whereas in Ca2+-free medium, (-)-epicatechin completely relaxed HIMA rings pre-contracted by phenylephrine and caffeine. Finally, thapsigargin, a sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor, slightly antagonized (-)-epicatechin-induced relaxation of HIMA pre-contracted by phenylephrine. These results suggest that (-)-epicatechin induces strong endothelium independent relaxation of HIMA pre-contracted by phenylephrine whilst 4-AP- and rnargatoxin-sensitive K-V channels, as well as BKCa and K-ATP channels, located in vascular smooth muscle, mediate this relaxation. In addition, it seems that (-)-epicatechin could inhibit influx of extracellular Ca2+, interfere with intracellular Ca2+ release and re uptake by the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

AB  - The ATP-sensitive K+ channels opener (KATPCO), P1075 [N-cyano-N'-(1,1-dimethylpropyl)-N?-3-pyridylguanidine], has been shown to cause relaxation of various isolated animal and human blood vessels by opening of vascular smooth muscle ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels. In addition to the well-known effect on the opening of KATP channels, it has been reported that vasorelaxation induced by some of the KATPCOs includes some other K+ channel subtypes. Given that there is still no information on other types of K+ channels possibly involved in the mechanism of relaxation induced by P1075, this study was designed to examine the effects of P1075 on the rat renal artery with endothelium and with denuded endothelium and to define the contribution of different K+ channel subtypes in the P1075 action on this blood vessel. Our results show that P1075 induced a concentration-dependent relaxation of rat renal artery rings pre-contracted by phenylephrine. Glibenclamide, a selective KATP channels inhibitor, partly antagonized the relaxation of rat renal artery induced by P1075. Tetraethylammonium (TEA), a non-selective inhibitor of Ca2+-activated K+ channels, as well as iberiotoxin, a most selective blocker of large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) channels, did not abolish the effect of P1075 on rat renal artery. In contrast, a non-selective blocker of voltage-gated K+ (KV) channels, 4-aminopyridine (4-AP), as well as margatoxin, a potent inhibitor of KV1.3 channels, caused partial inhibition of the P1075-induced relaxation of rat renal artery. In addition, in this study, P1075 relaxed contractions induced by 20 similar to mM K+, but had no effect on contractions induced by 80 similar to mM K+. Our results showed that P1075 induced strong endothelium-independent relaxation of rat renal artery. It seems that KATP, 4-AP- and margatoxin-sensitive K+ channels located in vascular smooth muscle mediated the relaxation of rat renal artery induced by P1075.
