The present study was undertaken to characterize thromboxane A2/prostaglandin H2 (TXA2/PGH2) receptors in platelets and blood vessels. Both human and canine platelet aggregation and saphenous vein contractions were induced by the stable TXA2/PGH2 mimetics (15S)-hydroxy-11 alpha,9 alpha-(epoxymethano)prosta-5Z, 13E-dienoic acid (U46619) and 9,11-epithio-11,12-methano-TXA2 (ONO-11113). ONO-11113 was a more potent agonist than U46619 in the human saphenous vein but less potent in the platelet. These agonists were equipotent in the canine platelet but ONO-11113 was more potent in the saphenous vein. Platelet aggregation and saphenous vein contraction induced by U46619 were blocked in a dose-dependent manner by the TXA2/PGH2 receptor agonists 9,11-dimethylmethano-11,12-methano-16-phenyl-13,14-dehydro-13-aza- 15 alpha beta-omega-tetranor-TXA2 (ONO-11120), 9,11-dimethylmethano-11,12-methano-16-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-13,14-d ihy dro-13-aza-15 alpha beta-omega-tetranor-TXA2 (PTA-OH), 9,11-dimethylmethano-11,12-methano-16-(4-methoxyphenyl)-13,14-d ihy dro-13-aza-15 alpha beta-omega-tetranor-TXA2 (PTA-OM), 9,11-dimethylmethano-11,12-methano-16-(3-iodo-4-hydroxyphenyl-13,1 4-dihydro-13- aza-15 alpha beta-omega-tetranor-TXA2 (I-PTA-OH) and 9,11-dimethylmethano-11,12-methano-15-phenyl-13,14-dihydro-13-aza- 15 alpha beta-omega-pentanor-TXA2 [PTA-(omega-1)].(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009119 Muscle Contraction A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments.

D009131 Muscle, Smooth, Vascular The nonstriated involuntary muscle tissue of blood vessels. Vascular Smooth Muscle,Muscle, Vascular Smooth,Muscles, Vascular Smooth,Smooth Muscle, Vascular,Smooth Muscles, Vascular,Vascular Smooth Muscles
D010974 Platelet Aggregation The attachment of PLATELETS to one another. This clumping together can be induced by a number of agents (e.g., THROMBIN; COLLAGEN) and is part of the mechanism leading to the formation of a THROMBUS. Aggregation, Platelet
D011450 Prostaglandin Endoperoxides, Synthetic Synthetic compounds that are analogs of the naturally occurring prostaglandin endoperoxides and that mimic their pharmacologic and physiologic activities. They are usually more stable than the naturally occurring compounds.

D011956 Receptors, Cell Surface Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.

D011982 Receptors, Prostaglandin Cell surface receptors that bind prostaglandins with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells. Prostaglandin receptor subtypes have been tentatively named according to their relative affinities for the endogenous prostaglandins. They include those which prefer prostaglandin D2 (DP receptors), prostaglandin E2 (EP1, EP2, and EP3 receptors), prostaglandin F2-alpha (FP receptors), and prostacyclin (IP receptors).
