摘要

Aim: Alphal -adrenergic receptors (alpha_1-ARs) are classified into three subtypes: alpha_1A-AR, alpha_1B-AR, and alpha_1D-AR.Triple disruption of alpha_1A-AR,alpha_1B-AR, and alpha_1D-AR genes results in hypotension and produces no contractile response of the thoracic aorta to noradrenalin. Presently, we characterized vascular contractility against other vasoconstrictors, such as potassium, prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF_2alpha) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), in alpha_1a-AR, alpha_1B-AR, and alpha_1D-AR triple knockout (alpha_1-AR triple KO) mice.Main methods: The contractile responses to the stimulation with vasoconstrictors were studied using isolated thoracic aorta.Key findings: As a result, the phasic and tonic contraction induced by a high concentration of potassium (20 mM) was enhanced in the isolated thoracic aorta of alpha_1-AR triple KO mice compared with that of wild-type (WT) mice. In addition, vascular responses to PGF_2alpha and 5-HT were also enhanced in the isolated thoracic aorta of alpha_1-AR triple KO mice compared with WT mice. Similar to in vitro findings with isolated thoracic aorta, in vivo pressor responses to PGF_2alpha were enhanced in alpha_1-AR triple KO mice. Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis and western blot analysis indicate that gene expression of the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A ( 5-HT_2a) receptor was up-regulated in the thoracic aorta of alpha_1-AR triple KO mice while the prostaglandin F2alpha receptor (FP) was unchanged.Significance: These results suggest that loss of alpha_1-ARs can lead to enhancement of vascular responsiveness to the vasoconstrictors and may imply that alpha_1-ARs and the subsequent signaling regulate the vascular responsiveness to other stimulations such as depolarization, 5-HT and PGF_2alpha.
