Blockade of AT1 receptor partially restores vasoreactivity, NOS expression, and superoxide levels in cerebral and carotid arteries of hindlimb unweighting rats
Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated activation of the local renin-angiotensin system in hindlimb unweighting (HU) rat vasculature. The present study intended to identify the effects of blockade of angiotensin II (ANG II) type 1 (AT(1)) receptors with losartan on vascular reactivity, nitric oxide synthase (NOS) expression, and superoxide anion (O(2)(*-)) levels in 3-wk HU rat cerebral and carotid arteries. Three weeks later, vasoconstriction, vasodilatation, endothelial NOS (eNOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS) protein, as well as O(2)(*-) levels in rat cerebral and carotid arteries were examined. We found that HU enhanced maximal response to KCl/5-hydroxytryptamine (P < 0.01) in basilar arteries and KCl/phenylephrine (P < 0.05) in common carotid arteries from HU rats. Acetylcholine induced concentration-dependent vasodilatation in all the artery rings, but with significantly smaller amplitude in basilar (P < 0.01) and common carotid (P < 0.05) arteries from HU rats than those from control rats. Chronic treatment with losartan partially restored response to vasoconstrictors and acetylcholine-induced vasodilatation in basilar (P < 0.01) and common carotid (P < 0.05) arteries from losartan-treated HU rats. Furthermore, iNOS content in cerebral arteries and eNOS/iNOS content in carotid arteries were significantly (P < 0.01) increased in HU rats. Meanwhile, HU increased O(2)(*-) levels in all the layers of these arteries. However, losartan restored NOS content and O(2)(*-) levels toward…

“One of the studies was performed in rats using the bed rest and hindlimb unloading (HLU) model, which revealed that after 3 weeks of exposure to simulated microgravity there is an increase in O2− and O2 levels in cerebral and carotid arteries92.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
