We examined effects of perfusion of the kidney with pyridoxalated hemoglobin polyoxyethylene conjugate(PHP) solution on rat renal vascular responsiveness to norepinephrine(NE), angiotensin-II (AN-II), acethylcholine(ACh) and nitroglycerine(NG). The rat kidney was perfused with hydroxyethylstarch(HES) or PHP at a constant flow rate, using a pump. Perfusion pressure was monitored by a pressure transducer. Changes in PP induced by NE, AN-II, ACh and NG was examined. NE and AN-II applied intra-arterially induced a dose-related increase in PP in rat kidney perfused with both HES and PHP perfused groups. ACh and NG produced a dose dependent decrease in PP in both HES and PHP-perfused groups. There was no significant difference in response to ACh and NG between both groups. Results suggests that in rat vascular beds, PHP dose not interfere vascular relaxation caused by release of EDRF induced by ACh.

D009569 Nitric Oxide A free radical gas produced endogenously by a variety of mammalian cells, synthesized from ARGININE by NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHASE. Nitric oxide is one of the ENDOTHELIUM-DEPENDENT RELAXING FACTORS released by the vascular endothelium and mediates VASODILATION. It also inhibits platelet aggregation, induces disaggregation of aggregated platelets, and inhibits platelet adhesion to the vascular endothelium. Nitric oxide activates cytosolic GUANYLATE CYCLASE and thus elevates intracellular levels of CYCLIC GMP.

D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.
