Abstract
세포막과 세포막 사이의 특수한 연결조직인 gap junction (간극결합)의 활성이 혈관 평활근 수축에도 관여함이 알려져 있다. 이 연구는 신성고혈압 상태의 혈관수축에 있어 gap junction의 역할이 차이가 있는지 구명하고자 시행하였다.
체중 160~180g 흰쥐 (Sprague-Dawley, ♂)의 일측 신동맥에 clip (직경 0.2mm)을 장치하고 6 주 동안 사육하여 2-kidney, 1 clip (2K1C) 고혈압을 유발시켰다. 실험 당일 흉부 대동맥을 채취하여 등장성 장력변화를 생리기록기에 기록하였다.
적출 흉부 대동맥 표본에서 phenylephrine과 KCl에 의한 수축반응은 gap junction 활성 억제제인 heptanol과 octanol에 의해 완전히 이완되었다. Heptanol과 octanol에 의한 이완반응은 2K1C 고혈압군에서 대조군에 비해 항진되었다. KCl로 수축시킨 후 nifedipine에 의한 이완반응은 고혈압군에서 대조군보다 더 강화되었으나 phenylephrine의 수축에는 양군에서 차이가 없었다.
이상의 실험결과는 혈관수축에 있어 세포막 칼슘 통로와 관련된 gap junction의 활성이 2K1C 신성고혈압 상태에서 변이됨을 시사한다.|Cells rely on gap junctions for intercellular communication, which is important for growth and contractility.The present study was conducted to test the hypothesis that contractile responses in aortic rings from two-kidney, one clip (2K1C) hypertensive rats are more dependent on gap junctional communication compared to those from normotensive rats. 2K1C hypertension wasinduced by clipping the left renal artery and age-matched rats received a sham operation. Heptanol and octanol were used as inhibitors of gap junctional activity. The contraction induced by phenylephrine or KCl was completely reversed by either heptanolor octanol,and therelaxant response to inhibitors was more enhanced in 2K1C hypertensive rats compared to sham-operated rats. Vessels from hypertensive rats also relaxed more to nifedipine when precontracted with KCl, although it did not differ in aortic segments contracted with phenylephrine in between normotensive and hypertensive rats. These results suggest that gap junctional communication and voltage-operated calcium channels are differentially regulated in 2K1C renalhypertension.
