摘要

We tested the hypothesis that endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) plays a less dominant role in the female cerebrovasculature. The contribution of EDHF to the ATP-mediated dilation was determined in middle cerebral arteries (MCAs) isolated from male and female rats. Four groups of rats were tested: intact male (n = 12), intact female (n = 13), estrogen-treated ovariectomized female (n = 13), and vehicle-treated ovariectomized female (n = 20) rats. Maximal dilation to ATP was similar in all groups. However, in the presence of N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, 3 x 10(-5) M) and indomethacin (10(-5) M), the maximal dilation to ATP was significantly reduced in intact female (24 +/- 9%) and estrogen-treated ovariectomized female (29 +/- 9%) rats compared with intact male (95 +/- 4%) and vehicle-treated ovariectomized female (96 +/- 2%) rats. The ATP-mediated dilation in L-NAME- and indomethacin-treated MCAs isolated from male and ovariectomized female rats was inhibited by charybdotoxin (10(-7) M), an inhibitor of large-conductance Ca2+-sensitive K+ channels. We have defined EDHF as the L-NAME- and indomethacin-insensitive component of the ATP-mediated dilation. Our findings indicate that EDHF-mediated dilations are negligible in the female rat MCA; these dilations can be significantly enhanced after ovariectomy, suggesting that this effect is mediated by estrogen.
