目的探讨硫化氢(H2S)在大鼠大脑中动脉(MCA)上是否具有内皮源性超极化因子(EDHF)样作用。方法应用离体血管舒缩功能测定方法,检测乙酰胆碱(ACh)、硫氢化钠(NaHS)等对大鼠离体MCA的舒张作用。血管用一氧化氮(NO)合酶抑制剂(L-NAME,3×10-5mol/L)和前列环素(PGI2)合酶抑制剂(Indo,1×10-5mol/L)预处理后,用ACh诱导血管产生非NO、非PGI2舒张反应。并观察四乙胺(TEA,1×10-3mol/L)或DL-炔丙基甘氨酸(PPG,1×10-4mol/L)对这种非NO、非PGI2舒张反应的影响。结果在30 mmol/L KCl预收缩的大鼠MCA上,ACh(10-7~10-4.5mol/L)和NaHS(10-5~10-2.5mol/L,H2S供体)均可浓度依赖性舒张大鼠MCA。血管用L-NAME(3×10-5mol/L)和Indo(1×10-5mol/L)预处理后,ACh对MCA仍具有明显的舒张作用(P〈0.01)。在1×10-3mol/L浓度时具有阻断钙激活钾通道作用的TEA或内源性H2S合成酶——胱硫醚-γ-裂解酶(CSE)的抑制剂PPG(1×10-4mol/L)均可明显取消ACh诱导大鼠MCA的这种非NO、非PGI2介导的舒张。结论在大鼠MCA中,ACh诱导的非NO、非PGI2舒张反应,即EDHF反应可能是H2S介导的。
Objective To study whether hydrogen sulfide(H2S) induced the endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor(EDHF) dilation in rat middle cerebral artery(MCA) or not.Methods The relaxant effects of acetylcholine(ACh),sodium hydrosulfide(NaHS) on isolated rat MCAs were detected by vasomotoricity experiment in vitro,respectively.Non-NO,non-PGI2 relaxation was induced by ACh in the presence of Nω-nitro-L-arginine-methyl-ester(L-NAME) and indomethacin(Indo).The effects of tetraethylammonium(TEA,1×10-3 mol/L) or DL-propargylglycine(PPG,1×10-4 mol/L) on the non-NO,non-PGI2 relaxation were also observed.Results In the isolated rat MCAs preconstricted by 30 mmol/L KCl,ACh(10-7~10-4.5 mol/L) and NaHS(10-5~10-2.5 mol/L,a donor of H2S) had the concentration-dependent relaxation.The ACh-induced vasorelaxation was partly inhibited in the presence of 3×10-5 mol/L L-NAME and 1×10-5 mol/L Indo,but the left relaxation was still significant.ACh-induced vasorelaxation in the presence of L-NAME and Indo was almost abolished by TEA(an inhibitor of calcium-activated K+ channels at 1×10-3 mol/L) or 1×10-4 mol/L PPG(an inhibitor of endogenous synthesis of H2S).Conclusion In the rat MCA,ACh-induced non-NO,non-PGI2 relaxation,the so-called EDHF dilation might be mediated by H2S.
