Different types of relationship between beta-adrenergic relaxation and activation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in canine saphenous and portal veins. 1986

F Kikkawa, and T Furuta, and N Ishikawa, and T Shigei

We examined the relationships between the relaxation mediated by beta-adrenoceptor and either the associated cyclic AMP production or the activation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (A-PK) in canine saphenous and portal veins. In the saphenous vein constricted with methoxamine, isoproterenol caused concentration-dependent relaxation (maximum relaxation 92.7%), and concomitant increases in cyclic AMP and A-PK activity ratio (from 52.8 to 73.5%). The portal vein was only slightly relaxed by isoproterenol (14.7% in the longitudinal strips) after constriction with methoxamine, while cyclic AMP and A-PK activation increased significantly. Isoproterenol markedly activated A-PK of the portal vein after KCl constriction (from 52.6 to 74.6%) but the maximum relaxation was only slight (13.3%). The portal vein also showed a smaller relaxation response to either forskolin or dibutyryl cyclic AMP than the saphenous vein. These results indicated that the relationship between the relaxation response to isoproterenol and either cyclic AMP production or A-PK activation was different in the saphenous and portal veins.
