Abstract
Vasoplegia is a ubiquitous phenomenon in all advanced shock states, including septic, cardiogenic, hemorrhagic, and anaphylactic shock. Its pathophysiology is complex, involving various mechanisms in vascular smooth muscle cells such as G protein-coupled receptor desensitization (adrenoceptors, vasopressin 1 receptors, angiotensin type 1 receptors), alteration of second messenger pathways, critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency, and increased production of nitric oxide. This review, based on a critical appraisal of the literature, discusses the main current treatments and future approaches. Our improved understanding of these mechanisms is progressively changing our therapeutic approach to vasoplegia from a standardized to a personalized multimodal treatment with the prescription of several vasopressors. While norepinephrine is confirmed as first line therapy for the treatment of vasoplegia, the latest Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines also consider that the best therapeutic management of vascular hyporesponsiveness to vasopressors could be a combination of multiple vasopressors, including norepinephrine and early prescription of vasopressin. This new approach is seemingly justified by the need to limit adrenoceptor desensitization as well as sympathetic overactivation given its subsequent deleterious impacts on hemodynamics and inflammation. Finally, based on new pathophysiological data, two potential drugs, selepressin and angiotensin II, are currently being evaluated.

Abstract
Haemorrhagic shock is a common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI), which is a major risk factor for developing chronic kidney disease. The mechanism is superficially straightforward. An arterial pressure below the kidney's autoregulatory region leads to a direct reduction in filtration pressure and perfusion, which in turn cause renal failure with reduced glomerular filtration rate and AKI because of hypoxia. However, the kidney's situation is further worsened by the hormonal and neural reactions to reduced perfusion pressure. There are three major systems working to maintain arterial pressure in shock: sympathetic signalling, the renin-angiotensin system and vasopressin. These work to retain electrolytes and water and to increase peripheral resistance and cardiac output. In the kidney, the increased electrolyte reabsorption consumes oxygen. At the same time, at the signalling level seen in shock, all of these hormones reduce renal perfusion and thereby oxygen delivery. This creates an exaggerated hypoxic situation that is liable to worsen the AKI. The present review will examine this mechanistic background and identify a number of areas that require further studies. At this time, the ideal treatment of haemorrhagic shock appears to be slow fluid resuscitation, possibly with hyperosmolar sodium, low chloride and no artificial colloids. From the standpoint of the kidney, renin-angiotensin system inhibitors appear fruitful for further study.

Downregulation of miR-223 and miR-153 mediates mechanical stretch-stimulated proliferation of venous smooth muscle cells via activation of the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor. Arch Biochem Biophys 2012; 528:204-11. [PMID: 23046980 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2012.08.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2012] [Revised: 08/15/2012] [Accepted: 08/30/2012] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Autologous venous grafts, used to circumvent occluded coronary arteries during coronary artery bypass, often develop thrombosis and neointimal hyperplasia. During neointimal hyperplasia, vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), exposed to substantially higher pressure and hemodynamic forces, proliferate and extracellular matrix accumulate causing narrowing of the vessel lumen. Activation of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) has been confirmed to be critically involved in mechanical stretch-stimulated VSMC proliferation. However, the comprehensive mechanisms responsible for activation of IGF-1R in VSMCs by mechanical stretch remain unclear. This study found that miR-223 and miR-153, targeted to IGF-1R, were down-regulated in VSMCs under stretch stress by miRNA microarray analysis in conjunction with Target Scan analysis. Overexpression of miR-223 or miR-153 down-regulated IGF-1R expression and activity in VSMCs under stretch stress. Specifically, overexpression of miR-223 and miR-153 inhibited stretch stress-enhanced VSMC proliferation and the activity of PI3K-AKT signaling. In conclusion, our study indicates that miR-153 and miR-223 are reduced in VSMCs by stretch stress, contributing to IGF-1R activation and resultant VSMC proliferation. Thus, miR-153 and miR-223 may be viable therapeutic targets for mechanical stretch-induced neointimal hyperplasia in vein grafts.

Abstract
Vasodilatory septic shock is characterized by profound vasodilation of the peripheral circulation, relative refractoriness to catecholamines and a relative deficiency of the posterior pituitary hormone, vasopressin. Arginine vasopressin is effective in restoring vascular tone in vasodilatory septic shock and may be associated with decreased mortality in less severe septic shock as well as improved mortality and decreased renal failure in septic shock patients at risk for renal failure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the direct contractile effects of angiotensin II (AII) and vasopressin (VP), and the effects of combinations of these agonists, in human isolated gastroepiploic arteries in vitro. DESIGN Laboratory and clinical investigation. SETTING University laboratory and hospital. SUBJECTS Ring segments were prepared from gastroepiploic arteries obtained from 57 patients undergoing gastrectomy. Blood samples were obtained from ten patients after severe hemorrhage and from five healthy volunteers. INTERVENTIONS Mechanical activity in the rings was assessed using a strain gauge. Plasma concentrations of AII and VP in the blood samples were measured using radioimmunoassay kits. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Both AII (1 or 10 ng/mL) and VP (100 or 500 pg/mL) produced concentration-dependent contractions in the rings. However, whereas VP produced reproducible sustained contractions, the contractile responses induced by multiple applications of AII showed marked desensitization (i.e., tachyphylaxis). Indeed, by the sixth application of either 1 ng/mL AII or 10 ng/mL AII, the contractile responses were <20% of the initial (control) response. During applications of AII after the sixth, the co-application of a low concentration of VP (100 pg/mL) fully restored the contractile response to AII in a clearly more-than-additive fashion. Similarly, the tachyphylaxis seen on AII application alone did not occur with repeated applications of an AII + norepinephrine mixture. In patients who had experienced hemorrhage, there were marked elevations of both AII and VP plasma concentrations, with values as high as 2.2 ng/mL and 550 pg/mL, respectively. CONCLUSION These results indicate that there is a powerful synergism between the contractile effects of low-dose VP and AII in this human isolated artery. Moreover, the elevations of plasma AII and VP levels during hemorrhage suggest that this synergism may be both physiologically and clinically important in optimizing vasoconstriction and maintaining blood pressure in such critical states.

Abstract
Vasopressin is emerging as a rational therapy for vasodilatory shock states. In part 1 of the review we discussed the structure and function of the various vasopressin receptors. In part 2 we discuss vascular smooth muscle contraction pathways with an emphasis on the effects of vasopressin on ATP-sensitive K+ channels, nitric oxide pathways, and interaction with adrenergic agents. We explore the complex and contradictory studies of vasopressin on cardiac inotropy and coronary vascular tone. Finally, we summarize the clinical studies of vasopressin in shock states, which to date have been relatively small and have focused on physiologic outcomes. Because of potential adverse effects of vasopressin, clinical use of vasopressin in vasodilatory shock should await a randomized controlled trial of the effect of vasopressin's effect on outcomes such as organ failure and mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) formation is a critical factor in processes involving ischaemia/ reperfusion. However, the precise mechanism by which reactive oxygen species (ROS) induce vascular damage are insufficiently known. Specifically, activation of phospholipase C gamma (PLCgamma) is a probable candidate pathway involved in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) activation by H2O2. METHODS The activation of human venous VSMC was measured as cytosolic free calcium mobilization, shape change and protein phosphorylation, focusing on the role of tyrosine phosphorylation-activated PLCgamma. RESULTS The exposure of VSMC to exogenous H2O2 caused a rapid increase in cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), and induced a significant VSMC shape change. Both effects were dependent on a tyrosine kinase-mediated mechanism, as determined by the blockade of short-term treatment of VSMC with the protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor, genistein. Giving further support to the putative role of phospholipase C (PLC)-dependent pathways, the [Ca2+]i and VSMC shape change response were equally inhibited by the specific PLC blocker, 1-(6-((17-beta-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)trien-17-yl)amino)hexyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (U73122). In addition, U73122 had a protective effect against the deleterious action (24 h) of H2O2 on non-confluent VSMC. As a further clarification of the specific pathway involved, the exposure to H2O2 significantly stimulated the tyrosine phosphorylation of PLCgamma with a concentration- and time-profile similar to that of [Ca(2+)](i) mobilization. CONCLUSIONS The present study reveals that H(2)O(2) activates PLCgamma on VSMC through tyrosine phosphorylation and that this activation has a major role in rapid [Ca(2+)](i) mobilization, shape-changing actions and damage by H(2)O(2) in this type of cells. These findings have direct implications for understanding the mechanisms of the vascular actions of H(2)O(2) and may help to design pharmacologically protective strategies.

Abstract
Activation of MAP kinase kinase, also called ERK kinase (MEK), may lead to desinhibition of thin filament regulatory proteins and we therefore investigated the acute effects of the potent MEK inhibitor, PD98059 on the contractile properties of pressurized rat middle cerebral arteries. Cerebral arteries (diameter 100-150 microm) were mounted on a pressure myograph and PD98059 (10 microM, 40 microM) significantly inhibited (15% and 64%) myogenic tone (P < 0.001). At these concentrations, PD98059 also significantly reduced the vasopressin (0.1 microM)- and KCl (60 mM)-induced tone. Cumulative addition of exogenous Ca2+ (0.4-1.6 mM) increased myogenic tone to approximately 50% of constriction at 80 mmHg. This effect was inhibited by PD98059 (P < 0.001). These results demonstrate that pressure-induced myogenic tone is inhibited by PD98059 at the concentrations that have been reported to be selective for inhibition of MEK and the MAP kinase cascade. However, our results also demonstrate that PD98059 may have nonspecific effects on voltage-sensitive Ca2+ entry in vascular smooth muscle.

Abstract
To determine the possible involvement of brain amiloride-sensitive Na+ channels in Na(+)-induced hypertension, we investigated the effects of benzamil hydrochloride, a specific blocker of these Na+ channels, on the acute pressor mechanisms of intracerebroventricular infusion of hypertonic NaCl and the continuous pressor mechanisms of Na(+)-induced chronic hypertension, such as deoxycorticosterone acetate-salt hypertensive or stroke-prone spontaneous hypertensive rats, and of non-Na(+)-induced hypertension, such as renovascular hypertensive rats. Intracerebroventricular preinjection with benzamil (1 or 10 nmol/kg) abolished the increase in mean arterial pressure, heart rate, abdominal sympathetic discharge, and plasma vasopressin concentration induced by an acute increase in cerebrospinal Na+ concentrations at intracerebroventricular infusion of 1.5 M hypertonic NaCl. Continuous intracerebroventricular infusion of benzamil (1 or 10 nmol.kg-1.day-1) for 7 days attenuated Na(+)-induced chronic hypertension in both deoxycorticosterone acetate-salt and stroke-prone spontaneous hypertensive rats, accompanied by reduction of urinary excretion of vasopressin and norepinephrine but not in renovascular hypertensive rats. Intravenous infusion of benzamil (10 nmol.kg-1.day-1) for 7 days affected neither arterial pressure nor urinary excretion of vasopressin and norepinephrine in either model of hypertension. Benzamil-blockable brain amiloride-sensitive Na+ channels are expected to function as one of the Na+ receptors in the brain and to be involved in the pressor mechanism of Na(+)-induced hypertension.

Abstract
Activation of Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase II) and development of the Ca2+/CaM-independent (autonomous) form of the kinase was investigated in cultured vascular smooth muscle (VSM) cells. Within 15 s of ionomycin (1 microM) exposure 52.7 +/- 4.4% of the kinase became autonomous, a response that was partially maintained for at least 10 min. This correlated with 32P phosphorylation of CaM kinase II delta-subunits in situ and was abolished by pretreatment with the CaM kinase II inhibitor KN-93. The in situ Ca2+ dependence for generating autonomous CaM kinase II was determined in cells selectively permeabilized to Ca2+ and depleted of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ by pretreatment with thapsigargin. Analysis of the resulting curve revealed an EC50 (concentration producing 50% of maximal response) of 692 +/- 28 nM [Ca2+]i, a maximum of 68 +/- 2% of the total activity becoming autonomous reflecting nearly complete activation of CaM kinase II and a Hill slope of 3, indicating a highly cooperative process. Based on this dependence and measured [Ca2+]i responses in intact cells, increases in autonomous activity stimulated by angiotensin II, vasopressin and platelet-derived growth factor-BB (4.6-, 2-, and 1.7-fold, respectively) were unexpectedly high. In intact cells stimulated by ionomycin, the correlation between autonomous activity and [Ca2+]i resulted in a parallel curve with an EC50 of 304 +/- 23 nM [Ca2+]i. This apparent increase in Ca2+ sensitivity for generating autonomous activity in intact VSM cells was eliminated by thapsigargin pretreatment. We conclude that alteration of [Ca2+]i over a physiological range activates CaM kinase II in VSM and that this process is facilitated by release of Ca2+ from intracellular pools which initiates cooperative autophosphorylation and consequent generation of autonomous CaM kinase II activity.

Abstract
The ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP) are activated either by a decrease in intracellular ATP content or by a lowering of the ATP-ADP ratio such as during stroke. We studied the role of cerebral KATP on arterial pressure during acute reduction of cerebral blood flow in 12-week-old male Wistar rats anesthetized with urethane by recording arterial pressure and heart rate continuously. After bilateral ligation of the common carotid arteries, glibenclamide, a specific blocker of KATP, was injected intracerebroventricularly into the cerebral lateral ventricle. Glibenclamide elicited a sustained vasopressor response in a dose-dependent manner in rats with bilateral carotid artery ligation (10 nmol, +15 +/- 2 mm Hg; 1 nmol, +5 +/- 1 mm Hg, P < .01 versus vehicle), but hemodynamic alterations were barely recorded with glibenclamide in sham-operated control rats. The abdominal sympathetic discharge was not increased significantly enough to explain the pressor mechanism. Similarly, pretreatments with intravenous injections of bunazosin, an alpha 1-adrenoceptor antagonist, did not affect the pressor response of intracerebroventricular glibenclamide. To investigate the vasopressor mechanism further, we measured plasma and pituitary concentrations of arginine vasopressin and determined the effects of vasopressin receptor antagonists. The intracerebroventricular injections of glibenclamide significantly increased the plasma concentration of vasopressin (P < .05) and significantly decreased the pituitary concentration of vasopressin (P < .05) in rats with bilateral carotid artery ligation. Intravenous pretreatment with the vasopressin V1 receptor antagonist OPC-21268 abolished the vasopressor response to intracerebroventricular glibenclamide (+16 +/- 2 versus +1 +/- 1 mm Hg, P < .01).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
In vascular smooth muscle cells arginine vasopressin acting through the V1 receptor increases intracellular Ca2+, leading to vasoconstriction. Recent studies have also shown that vasopressin activates mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase), which may contribute to vasopressin-induced hypertrophy of vascular smooth muscle cells. We examined the ability of an orally active, nonpeptide selective V1 antagonist (OPC-21268) to block vasopressin binding and postreceptor signaling in these cells. [3H]Vasopressin binding at 2 x 10(-9) mol/L was half-maximally blocked at 10(-9) mol/L OPC-21268. To compare effects of OPC-21268 on binding and postreceptor signaling, we stimulated cells with 10(-8) mol/L vasopressin. At this vasopressin concentration, half-maximal inhibition of binding occurred at 5 x 10(-9) mol/L OPC-21268. Half-maximal inhibition of Ca2+ efflux or increases in intracellular free Ca2+ required higher concentrations of antagonist (10(-7) mol/L), and half-maximal inhibition of vasopressin-stimulated MAP kinase was observed only at 10(-6) mol/L OPC-21268. These results indicate that this agent selectively blocks both vasopressin binding and postreceptor signaling in vascular smooth muscle cells. The requirement of higher concentrations of OPC-21268 for blocking increases in intracellular Ca2+ and activation of MAP kinase suggests that binding to a fraction of V1 receptors generates maximal levels of second messengers or the existence of subtypes of the V1 receptor with differential affinity for this antagonist. These data have implications for the clinical use of this compound.

Abstract
To test the hypothesis that the function of glomerular mesangial cells is impaired in diabetes, we examined the responsiveness of mesangial cells cultured under high concentrations of glucose to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP1) and angiotensin II (Ang II). The ANP-induced accumulation of cGMP was enhanced in mesangial cells cultured under high glucose conditions, possibly due to the activation of particulate guanylate cyclase. Ang II action in mesangial cells was evaluated by measuring the ability of Ang II to inhibit ANP-induced cGMP accumulation through both activating phosphodiesterase (initial phase) and inhibiting guanylate cyclase (maintenance phase). The inhibition of both ANP-induced cellular cGMP accumulation and particulate guanylate cyclase activity by Ang II was significantly reduced in mesangial cells cultured under high concentrations of glucose. Moreover, in the cells exposed to high concentrations of glucose, both basal and Ang II-stimulated levels of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) were significantly reduced. These results indicate that, in high glucose conditions, the actions of ANP and Ang II are modulated differently, resulting in the impairment of contractile responsiveness of mesangial cells.

Abstract
Early diabetes mellitus is characterized by impaired responses to pressor hormones and pressor receptor downregulation. The present study examined the effect of elevated extracellular glucose concentrations on angiotensin II (AII) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) receptor kinetics in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Scatchard analysis of [3H]AVP and 125I-AII binding to confluent VSMC showed that high glucose concentrations (20 mM) similarly depressed AVP and AII surface receptor Bmax but did not influence receptor Kd. This receptor downregulation was not reproduced by osmotic control media containing either L-glucose or mannitol. Receptor downregulation was maximal at a glucose concentration of 15-20 mM and required 24-48 h for a maximum effect. Normalization of the extracellular glucose concentration allowed complete recovery of AVP and AII binding within 48 h. Receptor downregulation was associated with depressed AVP and AII-stimulated intracellular signaling and cell contraction. High glucose concentrations induced a sustained activation of protein kinase C (PKC) in VSMC, which was prevented by coincubation with H-7. H-7 also markedly attenuated glucose-induced downregulation of AVP and AII receptors on VSMC. This study demonstrates a novel cellular mechanism whereby high extracellular glucose concentrations directly and independently downregulate pressor hormone receptors and their function on vascular tissue via glucose-stimulated PKC activation.
