Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite current preventive strategies, bacterial contamination of platelets is the highest residual infectious risk in transfusion. Bacteria can grow from an initial concentration of 0.03-0.3 colony-forming units (CFUs)/mL up to 108 to 109 CFUs/mL over the product shelf life. The aim of this study was to develop a cost-effective approach for an early, rapid, sensitive, and generic detection of bacteria in platelet concentrates. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS A large panel of bacteria involved in transfusion reactions, including clinical isolates and reference strains, was established. Sampling was performed 24 hours after platelet spiking. After an optimized culture step for increasing bacterial growth, a microbead-based immunoassay allowed the generic detection of bacteria. Antibody production and immunoassay development took place exclusively with bacteria spiked in fresh platelet concentrates to improve the specificity of the test. RESULTS Antibodies for the generic detection of either gram-negative or gram-positive bacteria were selected for the microbead-based immunoassay. Our approach, combining the improved culture step with the immunoassay, allowed sensitive detection of 1 to 10 CFUs/mL for gram-negative and 1 to 102 CFUs/mL for gram-positive species. CONCLUSION In this study, a new approach combining bacterial culture with immunoassay was developed for the generic and sensitive detection of bacteria in platelet concentrates. This efficient and easily automatable approach allows tested platelets to be used on Day 2 after collection and could represent an alternative strategy for reducing the risk of transfusion-transmitted bacterial infections. This strategy could be adapted for the detection of bacteria in other cellular products.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify circulating biomarkers that originate from atherosclerotic vulnerable plaques and that could predict future cardiovascular events. METHODS After a protein enrichment step (combinatorial peptide ligand library approach), we performed a two-dimensional electrophoresis comparative analysis on human carotid plaque protein extracts (fibrotic and hemorrhagic atherosclerotic plaques). In silico analysis of the biological processes was applied on proteomic data. Luminex xMAP assays were used to quantify inflammatory components in carotid plaques. The systemic quantification of proteins originating from vulnerable plaques in blood samples from patients with stable and unstable coronary disease was evaluated. RESULTS A total of 118 proteins are differentially expressed in fibrotic and hemorrhagic plaques, and allowed the identification of three biological processes related to atherosclerosis (platelet degranulation, vascular autophagy and negative regulation of fibrinolysis). The multiplex assays revealed an increasing expression of VEGF, IL-6, IL-8, IP-10 and RANTES in hemorrhagic as compared to fibrotic plaques (p<0.05). Measurement of protein expressions in plasmas from patients with stable and unstable coronary disease identified a combination of biomarkers, including proteins of the smooth muscle cell integrity (Calponin-1), oxidative stress (DJ-1) and inflammation (IL-8), that allows the accurate classification of patients at risk (p=0.0006). CONCLUSION Using tissue protein enrichment technology, we validated proteins that are differentially expressed in hemorrhagic plaques as potential circulating biomarkers of coronary patients. Combinations of such circulating biomarkers could be used to stratify coronary patients.

Abstract
The β-amyloid precursor protein undergoes cleavages by β- and γ-secretasses yielding amyloid-β peptides (Aβ) that accumulate in Alzheimer's disease. Subsequently, Aβ peptides are targets of additional truncations or endoproteolytic cleavages explaining the diversity of Aβ-related fragments recovered in cell media or pathologic human fluids. Here, we focused on Aβ1-34 (Aβ34) that has been detected both in vitro and in vivo and that derives from the hydrolysis of Aβ by β-secretase. We have obtained and fully characterized by immunologic and biochemical approaches, a polyclonal antibody that specifically recognizes the C-terminus of Aβx-34. We present immunohistochemical evidence for the presence of Aβx-34 in the brain of 3xTg mice and Alzheimer's disease-affected human brains. Finally, we demonstrate a neprilysin-mediated degradation process of Aβ34 and the ability of synthetic Aβ34 to protect HEK cells overexpressing either wild type or Swedish-mutated β-amyloid precursor protein from apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After synthesis by cardiomyocytes, precursor proBNP1-108 is cleaved into NT-proBNP and BNP. Recently, cross-reactivity between these assays was discussed. The aim of this study was to characterize the cross-reactivities, through a new biochemical innovative approach consisting in the total depletion of the circulating proBNP1-108 in patients with heart failure (HF). METHODS This prospective study included 180 patients with chronic HF. BNP and NT-proBNP were dosed with commercial kits. ProBNP1-108 was determined using an ELISA research assay specific to the precursor. ProBNP1-108 depletion was performed by immunocapture with a specific antibody targeting exclusively the ProBNP1-108 hinge region. ProBNP1-108, BNP and NT-proBNP levels were determined before and after depletion using this process in HF patients. RESULTS Mean age was 74.34 +/-12.5 y, and 69% of patients were males. NYHA classes II and III were the most frequent (32% and 45% respectively). Before depletion, ProBNP1-108, NT-proBNP and BNP levels were 316.8+/-265.9 pg/ml; 6,054.0+/-11,539 pg/ml and 684.3+/-82.1 pg/ml respectively, and were closely correlated with NHYA classes. After immuno-depletion, proBNP1-108 was decreased in mean by 96% (p<0.0001), BNP by 53% (p<0.0001) and NT-proBNP by 5%. The relationship between BNP or NT-proBNP and NHYA classes remained unchanged. CONCLUSION Current BNP and NT-proBNP assays measured as well proBNP molecule. This cross reactivity percentage has been controversial. Thanks to the removal of circulating proBNP1-108 with our immunodepletion process, we are now able to assess the remaining "true" BNP and NT-proBNP molecules and further evaluate their clinical relevance.

Abstract
In the present work, the concentrations of Aβ11-x and Aβ17-x peptides (x=40 or 42), which result from the combined cleavages of β-amyloid precursor protein (AβPP) by β'/α or α/γ-secretases, respectively, were assessed in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Specific multiplexed assays were set up using new anti-40 and anti-42 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for the capture of these N-truncated Aβ peptides and anti-11 or anti-17 mAbs for their detection. The specificity, sensitivity and reproducibility of such assays were assessed using synthetic peptides and human cell models. Aβ11-x and Aβ17-x were then measured in CSF samples from patients with AD (n=23), MCI (n=23) and controls with normal cognition (n=21). Aβ11-x levels were significantly lower in patients with MCI than in controls. Compared with the combined quantification of Aβ1-42, total Tau (T-Tau) and phosphorylated Tau (P-Tau; AlzBio3, Innogenetics), the association of Aβ11-40, Aβ17-40 and T-Tau improved the discrimination between MCI and controls. Furthermore, when patients with MCI were classified into two subgroups (MCI ≤1.5 or ≥2 based on their CDR-SB (Cognitive Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes) score), the CSF Aβ17-40/Aβ11-40 ratio was significantly higher in patients with CDR-SB ≤1.5 than in controls, whereas neither Aβ1-42, T-Tau nor P-Tau allowed the detection of this subpopulation. These results need to be confirmed in a larger clinical prospective cohort.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study sought to evaluate the clinical utility of pro-B-type natriuretic peptides (proBNP) in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure. BACKGROUND Plasma natriuretic peptides (BNP(1-)(32), N-terminal [NT]-proBNP(1-76)) have been demonstrated to assist in the diagnosis of patients with heart failure. However, the precursor to these polypeptides (proBNP(1-108)) circulates in plasma and may interfere with the measurement of currently used biomarkers. METHODS Plasma natriuretic peptides were assessed in 164 individuals (99% men) hospitalized with decompensated heart failure. The B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), NT-proBNP, and proBNP levels at hospital admission and discharge were compared with the incidence of cardiac death and all-cause mortality within 90 days post-discharge. RESULTS Pro-B-type natriuretic peptides demonstrated a high degree of correlation with both BNP (R = 0.924, p < 0.001) and NT-proBNP (R = 0.802, p < 0.001) at admission. Further characterization of proBNP demonstrated little variation with changes in age, body mass index, creatinine, or systolic dysfunction. All 3 plasma natriuretic peptides were significantly elevated at admission in patients suffering a cardiac death or all-cause mortality (p < 0.05). Receiver-operating characteristic curves demonstrated that admission and discharge NT-proBNP (area under the curve [AUC] 0.788 and AUC 0.834) had superior prognostic power for all-cause mortality when compared with BNP (AUC 0.644, p < 0.01 and AUC 0.709, p < 0.01) and proBNP (AUC 0.653, p < 0.01 and AUC 0.666, p < 0.01) at the same time points. CONCLUSIONS Admission values of all natriuretic peptides can be used to predict cardiac death and all-cause mortality. A preliminary comparison suggests that discharge values of NT-proBNP have the greatest diagnostic yield for predicting these end points. Further studies should explore the synergistic prognostic potential of all natriuretic peptides.

Abstract
PURPOSE Late thrombosis of irradiated vascular segments may be the consequence of endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction after radiation therapy. We investigated the effects of beta ionizing radiation on human EC viability, thymidine uptake, and differentiation. METHODS AND MATERIALS Endothelial cells were exposed to (32)P-labeled DNA oligonucleotides in incremental doses of 2, 6, and 10 Gy. The modulation of the VEGFR2 receptor expression after irradiation and the overall potential radioprotective effect of VEGF(165) on these functions were assayed. RESULTS A dose-dependent inhibitory effect of beta irradiation on ECs' thymidine uptake and differentiation was observed. EC viability, however, was not affected at levels of radiation up to 10 Gy. VEGF(165) proved to have a radioprotective effect as ECs' thymidine uptake, after radiation doses of 2, 6, and 10 Gy, was increased by 1.5-, 2-, and 4-fold, respectively, in the presence of 10 ng/ml of VEGF(165) (p < 0.05 vs. LacZ). This concentration of VEGF(165) also proved beneficial in maintaining cell differentiation at 16 h postirradiation when compared to controls. These biologic effects were in direct correlation with the upregulation of VEGFR2 receptor expression in irradiated ECs. CONCLUSIONS beta irradiation interacts directly with EC functions by significantly reducing their ability to differentiate and proliferate, associated with upregulation of VEGFR2. These effects can be prevented in part by pretreating cells with VEGF(165), an effect potentially favored by the upregulation of VEGFR2 receptor expression after irradiation.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to assess the status of ET-1 receptor subtypes (ET(A)and ET(B)) in ventricular myocytes and fibroblasts and to determine the role of PKC-dependent pathways in ET-1-stimulated cardiac cells in deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertensive rats. Systolic blood pressure and relative heart to body weight were significantly increased in DOCA-salt rats. In unilaterally nephrectomized (Uni-Nx) control rats, more than 90% of cardiomyocyte ET receptors were of the ET(A)subtype, whereas in fibroblasts ET(A)and ET(B)receptors were present in a 1:3 ratio. In DOCA-salt rats, the density of the ET(A)receptor subtype was reduced by 31% in cardiomyocytes and in cardiac fibroblasts only ET(B)receptor density was decreased by 29%. Affinity was unchanged. The relative expression of immunoreactive PKC alpha, gamma and epsilon was significantly increased, whereas PKC delta was not altered in cardiac extracts of DOCA-salt rats. In cardiac fibroblasts from DOCA-salt rats PKC delta was significantly increased and PKC epsilon was not translocated after ET-1 stimulation. The hearts of DOCA-salt hypertensive rats are thus characterized by: (1) decreased density of cardiomyocyte ET(A)receptors and fibroblast ET(B)receptors; (2) cell-specific enhanced expression of some PKC isoenzymes (alpha, gamma, delta and epsilon); and (3) unresponsiveness of PKC epsilon to translocate in the presence of ET-1. Together with alterations of ET-1-induced Ca(2+)handling in cardiac myocytes and fibroblasts, which we previously reported, results from the present study indicate a marked modification of the cardiac ET-1 system of DOCA-salt hypertensive rats.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although endovascular radiotherapy inhibits neointimal hyperplasia, the exact cellular alterations induced by beta irradiation remain to be elucidated. METHODS AND RESULTS We investigated in vitro the ability of 32P-labeled oligonucleotides to alter (1) proliferation of human and porcine vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and human coronary artery endothelial cells (ECs), (2) cell cycle progression, (3) cell viability and apoptosis, (4) cell migration, and (5) cell phenotype and morphological features. beta radiation significantly reduced proliferation of VSMCs (ED50 1.10 Gy) and ECs (ED50 2.15 Gy) in a dose-dependent manner. Exposure to beta emission interfered with cell cycle progression, with induction of G0/G1 arrest in VSMCs, without evidence of cell viability alteration, apoptosis, or ultrastructural changes. This strategy also proved to efficiently inhibit VSMC migration by 80% and induce contractile phenotype appearance, as shown by the predominance of alpha-actin immunostaining in beta-irradiated cells compared with control cells. CONCLUSIONS 32P-labeled oligonucleotide was highly effective in inhibiting proliferation of both VSMCs and ECs in a dose-dependent fashion, with ECs showing a higher resistance to these effects. beta irradiation-induced G1 arrest was not associated with cytotoxicity and apoptosis, thus demonstrating a potent cytostatic effect of beta-based therapy. This effect, coupled to that on VSMC migration inhibition and the appearance of a contractile phenotype, reinforced the potential of ionizing radiation to prevent neointima formation after angioplasty.

Abstract
The cardiac cellular effects of endothelin-1 (ET-1) on intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) were investigated in deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt rats with severe cardiac hypertrophy. [Ca2+]i was measured by fura-2 methodology in ventricular cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts of DOCA-salt hypertensive and control unilaterally nephrectomized rats (Uni-Nx). Blood pressure and heart weight were increased (p < 0.01) in DOCA-salt rats compared to control rats. ET-1 (10(-12)-10(-6) M) increased [Ca2+]i in a dose-dependent manner in both cell types from control and hypertensive rats. However, ET-1-induced [Ca2+]i responses were significantly attenuated (p < 0.01) in cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts of DOCA-salt rats. Sarafotoxin S6c (S6c) increased [Ca2+]i in fibroblasts but not in cardiomyocytes. In conclusion, ET-1 dose-dependently increased [Ca2+]i in cardiomyocytes (primarily via ETA receptors) and fibroblasts (via ETA and ETB receptors). Cardiac cell ET-1 signaling pathways are blunted in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats. ET-1 may not play a critical role in the pathophysiology of the severe concentric cardiac hypertrophy present in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats.

Abstract
The regulation of angiotensin II (Ang II) receptors and Ang II-induced modulation of intracellular Ca2+ concentration in cardiac cells from hearts of experimentally induced hypertensive deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt and control unilaterally nephrectomized (Uni-Nx) Sprague-Dawley rats was assessed. Ang II receptor density and intracellular Ca2+ concentration measurements were examined in adult ventricular myocytes and fibroblasts by radioligand binding assay and digital imaging using fura 2 methodology, respectively. Four-week DOCA-salt treatment induced hypertension associated with cardiac hypertrophy. Ang II binding studies demonstrated that adult ventricular myocytes and fibroblasts possess mainly the AT1 subtype receptor. Moreover, DOCA-salt hypertension was associated with a 1.8-fold increase in Ang II-specific binding compared with myocytes from Uni-Nx control rats. Intracellular Ca2+ responses induced by increasing Ang II concentrations (10[-12] to 10[-4] mol/L) were significantly enhanced in cardiomyocytes from DOCA-salt rats. The effects of Ang II on intracellular Ca2+ spike frequency were unaltered in cardiomyocytes from DOCA-salt-hypertensive rats. The density of AT1 subtype receptors was not modified in ventricular fibroblasts after DOCA-salt treatment. Ang II increased intracellular Ca2+ concentration similarly in ventricular fibroblasts from normal and hypertensive rats. In conclusion, DOCA-salt hypertension is characterized by an increased AT1 receptor density and intracellular calcium responses in ventricular myocytes, whereas in ventricular fibroblasts the AT1 receptor status is unaltered. These findings report for the first time the cardiac cell-specific implication of Ang II and the intracellular calcium signaling pathway stimulated by the AT1 receptor in cardiac hypertrophy in DOCA-salt-hypertensive rats.

Abstract
The vasoactive peptides angiotensin II (Ang II) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) have been implicated in cardiac hypertrophy. This study investigates Ang II and ET-1 effects on intracellular free calcium concentration and the receptor subtype through which agonist-induced calcium responses are mediated in isolated cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts from hypertrophied hearts of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). We measured intracellular free calcium concentration by fura 2 methodology and determined receptor status by radioligand binding assays. Ang II (10(-12) to 10(-7) mol/L) had no effect on cardiomyocyte calcium levels in control Wistar-Kyoto rats but significantly increased (P < .01) intracellular free calcium concentration in a dose-dependent manner in cardiomyocytes from SHR. Ang II total and specific binding were increased (P < .05) in SHR cardiomyocytes. Calcium responses elicited by 10(-7) to 10(-5) mol/L Ang II were significantly reduced (P < .01) in SHR fibroblasts despite no significant change in Ang II receptor density. The angiotensin type 1 receptor blocker losartan (1 mumol/L) blocked Ang II-stimulated calcium transients, whereas the angiotensin type 2 receptor blocker PD 123319 had no effect. ET-1- and sarafotoxin S6c-induced calcium responses in cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts were not different between hypertensive and control groups. In conclusion, Ang II and ET-1 elicit distinct and differential responses in a cell-specific manner in cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts from hypertrophied hearts of SHR. Whereas Ang II-mediated effects, which are elicited via angiotensin type 1 receptors, are detectable in cardiomyocytes from SHR, responses to Ang II are blunted in fibroblasts from SHR, and ET-1-related actions are similar in cells from both rat groups. Stimulation of cardiomyocytes by Ang II in hypertrophied hearts associated with pressure overload in genetic hypertension suggests that Ang II could modulate the function of cardiomyocytes of SHR but not those of Wistar-Kyoto rats, whereas cardiac actions of ET-1 do not change with the development of hypertension.

Structural changes observed in choroid plexuses from rats dissected aboard a space shuttle, on day 13 of an orbital flight (NASA STS-58 mission, SLS-2 Experiments) demonstrated that choroidal epithelial cells display a modified organization in a microgravitational environment. Results were compared with ultrastructural observations of choroid plexus from rats maintained under anti-orthostatic restraint (head-down tilt) for 14 days. In both experiment types, the main alterations observed by transmission electron microscopy, at the level of choroidal epithelial cells from the third and fourth ventricles, concerned the formation and the organization of apical microvilli, whereas pseudopod-like structures appeared. Immunocytochemical distribution of ezrin, a cytoskeletal protein involved in apical cell differentiation in choroid plexus, confirmed the structural alteration of microvilli in head-down tilted rats, Kinocilia tended to disappear from the apical surface, suggesting a partial loss of cell polarization. In addition, large amounts of clear vesicles were gathered in the apical cytoplasm of choroidal epithelial cells. Disorganization of apical microvilli accumulations of apical vesicles and partial loss of cell polarity showed that long-stays in weightlessness induced alterations in the fine structure of choroid plexus, consistent with a marked reduction of cerebrospinal fluid production.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purposes of this work were to assess the influence of microgravity on the central and peripheral noradrenergic activity to reevaluate SLS-1 mission findings and to compare it with that of simulated microgravity in rats. METHODS The norepinephrine (NE) contents of the brainstem cell groups (A1, A2, A5, and A6) and organs (heart and kidneys) involved in blood pressure regulation were determined in rats after a 14-d spaceflight (SLS-2 with animals sacrificed 6 h after landing) and after a 14-d hindlimb suspension followed with 6 h of recovery. RESULTS After SLS-2 spaceflight, NE contents were not significantly different between flight and ground-based rats either in A1 (5.2 +/- 0.5 vs. 5.7 +/- 0.4 pmol/structure), rostral A2 (12.1 +/- 0.5 vs. 11.1 +/- 0.9 pmol/structure), caudal A2 (3.2 +/- 0.6 vs. 4.3 +/- 0.5 pmol/structure) and A5 (4.4 +/- 0.4 vs. 4.3 +/- 0.5 pmol/structure) nuclei or in cardiac atria (98.6 +/- 7.5 vs. 83.4 +/- 8.9 pmol.mg-1 protein), ventricles (38.3 +/- 2.2 vs. 44.1 +/- 2.8 pmol.mg-1 protein) and kidneys (13.4 +/- 0.8 vs. 17.7 +/- 1.5 pmol.mg-1 protein). NE content was unchanged in A6 nucleus after SLS-2 comparing with control rats (respectively 4.1 +/- 0.3 vs. 4.5 +/- 0.5 pmol/structure), while it was depleted after SLS-1 mission (2.9 +/- 0.3 vs. 8.8 +/- 0.7 pmol/structure, p < 0.001) probably in relation with the stressful conditions on return to Earth. Similarly, no alterations between suspended and control rats were noted in central and peripheral NE contents after 14 d of suspension and after 6 h of recovery, whereas NE turnover studies evidenced large changes in the activities on structures on suspension and on recovery. CONCLUSION These results suggest that only NE turnover determination will provide information about the role of the sympathetic system in the cardiovascular deconditioning. This raises the problem of the necessity to experiment inflight (injections, sacrifice) in order to avoid the recovery effects of the few hours following the landing.

Abstract
We determined the effects of angiotensin II (Ang II) on cytosolic free calcium concentrations ([Ca2+]i) in the absence and presence of the selective angiotensin subtype 1 (AT1) receptor antagonist losartan or the selective AT2 antagonist PD 123319 in cultured neonatal rat atrial and ventricular cardiomyocytes. We also Ang II receptor density, affinity, and mRNA expression. [Ca2+]i was measured in single cells microphotometrically and by fluorescent digital imaging with fura 2 methodology. Receptor parameters were assessed by competitive binding studies with 125I-[Sar1,Ile8]Ang II in the presence of increasing concentrations of [Sar1,Ile8]Ang II, losartan, and PD 123319. AT1 receptor (types AT1A and AT1B) mRNA abundance was measured by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Ang II produced concentration-dependent increases in [Ca2+]i values in atrial and ventricular cells were similar but Ang II (10-9 mol/L)-induced [Ca2+]i changes were significantly greater in atrial compared with ventricular cells Ang II responses were blocked by losartan (10-7 mol/L) but not PD 123319 (10-7 mol/L). Binding studies demonstrated a single class of high-affinity. Ang II binding sites on cardiomyocyte membranes (Kd = 0.71 +/- 0.11 mumol/L). 125I-[Sar1,Ile8]Ang II was displaced by losartan but not by PD 123319. AT1 receptor mRNA was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in cells from atria and ventricles. In atrial cardiomyocytes, both AT1A and AT1B receptor genes were expressed, whereas in ventricular cardiomyocytes, only the AT1A receptor gene was expressed. These data demonstrate that neonatal cardiomyocytes possess Ang II receptors of the AT1 receptor subtype that are linked to [Ca2+]i signaling pathways. The different Ang II-induced [Ca2+]i responses between atrial and ventricular cells may be related to differences in the distribution of AT1 receptor subtype subvariants.

Abstract
Vasoactive peptides may exert inotropic and chronotropic effects in cardiac muscle by modulating intracellular calcium. This study assesses effects of angiotensin II (ANG II) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) on intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in cultured cardiomyocytes from neonatal and adult rats. [Ca2+]i was measured microphotometrically and by digital imaging using fura 2 methodology. Receptor subtypes through which these agonists induce responses were determined pharmacologically and by radioligand binding studies. ANG II and ET-1 increased neonatal atrial and ventricular cell [Ca2+]i transients in a dose-dependent manner. ANG II (10(-11) to 10(-7) M) failed to elicit [Ca2+]i responses in adult cardiomyocytes, whereas ET-1 increased [Ca2+]i in a dose-dependent manner. The ETA receptor antagonist BQ-123 significantly reduced (P < 0.05) ET-1 induced responses, and the ETB receptor agonist IRL-1620 (10(-7) to 10(-5) M) significantly increased (P < 0.05) [Ca2+]i in neonatal and adult cardiomyocytes. ET-1 binding studies demonstrated 85% displacement by BQ-123 and approximately 15% by the ETB receptor agonist sarafotoxin S6c, suggesting a predominance of ETA receptors. Competition binding studies for ANG II failed to demonstrate significant binding on adult ventricular myocytes, indicating the absence or presence of very few ANG II receptors. These data demonstrate that ANG II and ET-1 have stimulatory [Ca2+]i effects on neonatal cardiomyocytes, whereas in adult cardiomyocytes, ANG II-induced effects are insignificant, and only ET-1-induced responses, which are mediated predominantly via ETA receptors, are preserved. Cardiomyocyte responses to vasoactive peptides may thus vary with cardiac development.

Abstract
This study investigates the cellular localization and regulation of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and angiotensin II (Ang II) receptors and the effects of ET-1 and Ang II on [Ca2+]i in cardiac hypertrophy due to volume overload in the rat. Radioligand binding assays and [Ca2+]i measurements by fura 2 methodology were performed on isolated ventricular cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts from the heart of rats with a 4-week aortocaval shunt. In the hypertrophied myocardium, ET-1 and Ang II concentrations were unchanged in ventricles. Ventricular ET-1 receptors had a cell-specific distribution: > 90% of ET receptors in cardiomyocytes are of the ETA subtype, whereas fibroblasts had a nearly equal proportion of the ETA and ETB subtypes. ET-1 receptor densities, affinities, and ET-1-induced [Ca2+]i were not significantly different from control in both ventricular cell types from hypertrophied myocardium. Ang II specific binding was very low on isolated ventricular cardiomyocytes, suggesting few receptors in control conditions. However, [Ca2+]i responses induced by Ang II at concentrations > 10(-8) mol/L were detectable and were significantly higher in hypertrophied cardiomyocytes. Ang II receptor density (exclusively AT1) on fibroblasts was significantly reduced (42,970 +/- 3330 versus 73,870 +/- 7940 sites per cell for control cells, P < .01), but AT1 receptor affinity was unchanged after volume overload. The maximum increase in [Ca2+]i evoked by 10(-6) to 10(-4) mol/L Ang II was significantly lower in fibroblasts from overloaded hearts. In conclusion, ET-1 receptor proportion is cell specific, with cardiomyocytes possessing predominantly the ETA subtype and fibroblasts possessing both ETA and ETB receptors. Plasma and cardiac ET-1 concentrations and ET-1 receptor regulation on both ventricular cell types are not altered in cardiac volume overload, suggesting that cardiac ET-1 may not play a significant role in this model. Cardiac hypertrophy induced a significant downregulation of AT1 receptors on fibroblasts, whereas total binding and [Ca2+]i sensitivity to Ang II were significantly enhanced in hypertrophied cardiomyocytes. This suggests that cardiac Ang II may be involved in the pathophysiology of the cardiac hypertrophy of volume overload.

Abstract
This study investigates basal and angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced [Ca2+]i concentrations in cells from hearts of rats that have undergone cardiac hypertrophy due to volume overload. [Ca2+]i measurements assessed by digital imaging using fura 2 methodology were performed on isolated ventricular cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts from adult rat hearts with a 4-week aortocaval shunt. Long-term aortocaval shunt induced a significant increase in atrial (72%) and ventricular (41%) weights and a large elevation in plasma atrial natriuretic peptide-(1-98) concentration (160%). For adult cardiomyocytes [Ca2+]i measurements are reported as diastolic (average of the lowest points) and systolic intracellular Ca2+ values (average of the maximum points corresponding to the diastolic points) over a 30-second time interval. Basal diastolic [Ca2+]i (99 +/- 4.1 nmol/L for experimental cells versus 90 +/- 4.8 for control cells) was not altered, whereas basal systolic [Ca2+]i was significantly greater in ventricular cardiomyocytes from overload hearts (155 +/- 2.3 versus 129 +/- 4.4 nmol/L for control cells, P < .05). Ang II increased intracellular Ca2+ spike frequency in a concentration-dependent manner in cardiomyocytes from control and overload myocardium. Basal and Ang II-induced intracellular Ca2+ spike frequencies were not modified in cardiomyocytes from hypertrophied hearts. Basal [Ca2+]i in ventricular fibroblasts from overload myocardium was significantly increased (128 +/- 5.1 nmol/L for fibroblasts from hypertrophied hearts versus 104 +/- 3.5 for control cells, P < .05). Ang II-induced [Ca2+]i was lower in fibroblasts from overload myocardium (P < .05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Fluid and electrolyte shifts occurring during human spaceflight have been reported and investigated at the level of blood, cardiovascular and renal responses. Very few data were available concerning the cerebral fluid and electrolyte adaptation to microgravity, even in animal models. It is the reason why we developed several studies focused on the effects of spaceflight (SLS-1 and SLS-2 programs, carried on NASA STS 40 and 56 missions, which were 9- and 14-day flights, respectively), on structural and functional features of choroid plexuses, organs which secrete 70-90% of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and which are involved in brain homeostasis. Rats flown aboard space shuttles were sacrificed either in space (SLS-2 experiment, on flight day 13) or 4-8 hours after landing (SLS-1 and SLS-2 experiments). Quantitative autoradiography performed by microdensitometry and image analysis, showed that lateral and third ventricle choroid plexuses from rats flown for SLS-1 experiment demonstrated an increased number (about x 2) of binding sites to natriuretic peptides (which are known to be involved in mechanisms regulating CSF production). Using electron microscopy and immunocytochemistry, we studied the cellular response of choroid plexuses, which produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in brain lateral, third and fourth ventricles. We demonstrated that spaceflight (SLS-2 experiment, inflight samples) induces changes in the choroidal cell structure (apical microvilli, kinocilia organization, vesicle accumulation) and protein distribution or expression (carbonic anhydrase II, water channels,...). These observations suggested a loss of choroidal cell polarity and a decrease in CSF secretion. Hindlimb-suspended rats displayed similar choroidal changes. All together, these results support the hypothesis of a modified CSF production in rats during long-term (9, 13 or 14 days) adaptations to microgravity.

Abstract
To determine atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) adaptation to simulated weightlessness, immunoreactive plasma (ir-NH2- and ir-COOH-terminals) and atrial (ir-COOH-terminal) ANP levels, atrial mRNA expression, immunoreactive cardiocyte ANP levels (ir-NH2- and ir-COOH-terminals), and ultrastructural observations of granules in atrial cardiocytes were assessed in male Wistar rats after a 9-day hindlimb suspension. Plasma ir-NH2- and ir-COOH-terminal ANP concentrations decreased by 17 (P < 0.05) and 37% (P < 0.05), respectively, in suspended rats. A concomitant ir-COOH-terminal ANP content reduction was also observed in left (31%; P < 0.01) and right atria (25%; P < 0.05). Atrial ANP mRNA expression was severely depleted in the right atrium and less so in the left atrium after 9 days of hindlimb suspension. Immunocytochemistry observations demonstrated lowered NH2- and COOH-terminal ANP immunoreactivities in left and right atria from suspended rats. A reduced number of storage granules (dense granules) in both atria was also noted on ultrastructural analysis. It was concluded that ANP biosynthesis, storage, and release were decreased after a 9-day hindlimb suspension.

Abstract
To compare actual spaceflight to ground-based simulation (hindlimb-suspension), we measured the norepinephrine (NE) content in A1, A2, A5 and A6 (locus coeruleus) and the vasopressin content in the neurohypophysial system. The experimental period was of 9 days' duration. The NE content in the locus coeruleus decreased significantly in rats flown for 9 days (67%, p < 0.001), but showed no significant changes after hindlimb-suspension. These results demonstrated that suspended rats adapted better to weightlessness-simulation than flown rats to actual microgravity. In rats flown aboard SLS-1, the vasopressin content was significantly increased in the posterior pituitary (71%, p < 0.01), and was decreased in the hypothalamus (49%, p < 0.05). In 9-day suspended rats pituitary vasopressin levels were unchanged, while in the hypothalamus a significant decrease was noted (21%, p < 0.05). It was concluded that spaceflight changes in pituitary vasopressin levels and in the locus coeruleus NE content were consistent with a stress reaction, occurring during and/or after landing. These results confirmed that hindlimb-suspension model constitutes a valid and less stressful [correction of lesstressful] ground-based simulation of microgravity in rats.

Abstract
The norepinephrine (NE) content in discrete brain areas and the vasopressin content in the neurohypophysial system were assessed in rats after a 9-d spaceflight and after a recovery period (9 d). The NE content in the locus coeruleus decreased significantly in spaceflight rats (2.9 +/- 0.3 vs. 8.9 +/- 0.7 pmol.structure-1 for control rats, p < 0.001), but showed no difference between control and flight animals after a 9-d recovery. These findings were probably due to an acute stress undergone during landing. The NE content was unchanged in the A2 and A5 cell groups. In rats flown aboard SLS-1, the vasopressin content was increased in the posterior pituitary (1.47 +/- 0.1 vs. 0.86 +/- 0.1 micrograms.structure-1, for control rats, p < 0.01), and was significantly decreased in the hypothalamus (8.95 +/- 2.0 vs. 17.6 +/- 2.2 ng.structure-1, for control rats, p < 0.05). We conclude that the NE depletion in the locus coeruleus and the alteration in vasopressin release were consistent with an acute stress, likely occurring during and/or after landing. These changes tend to mask the actual neuroendocrine modifications caused by microgravity.

Abstract
After a 9-d hindlimb suspension, the turnover rate of norepinephrine (NE) in rats was determined in A1, A2 (rostral and caudal), A5 and A6 cell groups, as well as in peripheral target organs (heart and kidneys). The NE turnover rate decreased after hindlimb suspension respectively in caudal A2 (67.5%, p < 0.001), rostral A2 (63%, p < 0.001) and in A5 cell groups (62.5%, p < 0.001), but remained unchanged in A1 and A6 regions. The peripheral sympathetic outflow response was selectively modified: in suspended rats, the NE turnover was mainly decreased in atria (79%, p < 0.001) and in ventricles (44%, p < 0.001); there were no biochemical changes in kidneys. It was concluded that a 9-d hindlimb suspension: 1) impaired the noradrenergic neuron activity of A2 and A5 cell groups, which are involved in the central cardiovascular regulation, and particularly in the baroreceptor reflex mechanism; and 2) mainly altered the cardiac NE turnover and induced a selective response of peripheral target organs.

Abstract
The loss of appropriate cardiovascular reflexes which contributes to the cardiovascular deconditioning observed after an exposure to actual or simulated microgravity (in man or animals) is well known, but the mechanisms responsible remain unclear. This protocol, a 2.5 h hindlimb suspension in rats, was undertaken to study the early adaptation of the sympathetic neurons involved in arterial pressure regulation: we determined central norepinephrine (NE) turnover in the brainstem catecholaminergic cell groups responsible for the central cardiovascular regulation i.e. A1, A2 (rostral and caudal), A5 and A6 cell groups and peripheral NE turnover in target organs (heart and kidneys). The NE turnover in suspended rats significantly decreased in rostral A2 (48% p < 0.001), caudal A2 (52% p < 0.001) and A5 (40% p < 0.05) cell groups while it was unchanged in A1 and A6 cell groups compared with rats attached to the suspension device but maintained in the horizontal position. The short term hindlimb suspension did not alter the NE turnover in cardiac atria and ventricles or in kidneys nor did it alter the blood variables studied (hematocrit, osmolality, plasma sodium, potassium, proteins and renin concentration). We concluded that a 2.5 h hindlimb suspension reduced noradrenergic neuron activity in A2 and A5 cell groups involved in the central control of arterial pressure and particularly in the baroreceptor reflex mechanisms. This duration was probably not sufficient to modify the NE turnover in the two peripheral organs studied.

Abstract
Long-term endurance training effects on heart and plasma ANP were investigated in male Wistar rats. Maximal O2 uptake (VO2max) was significantly higher in trained groups, when they are used as their own control. After 3, 4, and 5 weeks of endurance training, VO2max was respectively increased by 7.7% (p less than 0.05), 13.7% (p less than 0.01), and 18.4% (p less than 0.001). Plasma ANP and glomerular ANP receptor density showed no clear variations in trained rats. However, cardiac ANP content decreased significantly in left and right atrial tissues by 35-36% (p less than 0.05) after 5 weeks of training. ANP immunoreactivity was investigated to show the distribution of ANP within the atria. ANP was found in diffuse and granular forms. The diffuse pattern (immature ANP) disappeared in cardiocytes of trained rats, while the granular form persisted, especially in the left atrial tissue. These data suggest that chronic endurance training might cause a decrease in ANP synthesis with no change in ANP storage. Such results are in agreement with the hypothesis that the left atrium could be especially involved in long-term fluid volume control.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of swimming training on systolic blood pressure (BPs), plasma and brain vasopressin (AVP), and plasma renin activity (PRA) in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) during rest and after exercise. Resting and postexercise heart rate, as well as blood parameters such as packed cell volume (PCV), haemoglobin concentration (Hb), plasma sodium and potassium concentrations ([Na+], [K+]) osmolality and proteins were also studied. Hypophyseal AVP had reduced significantly after exercise in the SHR, whereas PRA had increased significantly in the Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) strain used as normotensive controls. Plasma AVP concentration increased in both strains. By the end of the experiment, training had reduced body mass and BPs by only 10% and 6%, respectively. Maximal oxygen uptake was increased 10% and plasma osmolality 2% by training. The postexercise elevation of heart rate was not significantly attenuated by training. A statistically significant reduction in postexercise plasma osmolality (10%) and [Na+] (4%) was observed. These results suggested that swimming training reduced BPs. Plasma and brain AVP played a small role in the hypertensive process of SHR in basal conditions because changes in AVP contents did not correlate with those of BPs. Moreover, there were no differences between SHR and WKY in plasma, hypophyseal and hypothalamic AVP content in these basal conditions. Finally, during moderate exercise a haemodilution probably occurred with an increase of plasma protein content. This was confirmed by the exercise-induced increase of plasma AVP and the reduction of hypophyseal AVP content, suggesting a release of this hormone, which probably contributed to the water retention and haemodilution.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The effect of an endurance physical training programme on the plasma and atrial natriuretic peptides (ANP) and on renal glomerular ANP receptors was evaluated in male normotensive Wistar rats. Maximal O2 uptake was significantly greater in the endurance trained (117.1 ml O2.kg-1.min-1, SEM 6.18 versus the control rats 84.2 ml O2.kg-1.min-1, SEM 4.88, P less than 0.01. In addition, various muscle oxidative enzymes were also significantly higher in endurance trained animals. An increase in resting plasma [ANP] was observed after 11 weeks of physical training (40.02 pg.ml-1, SEM 7.07 vs 22.8 pg.ml-1, SEM 3.83, P less than 0.05). Glomerular ANP receptor density was lower in trained rats (272 fmol.mg-1 protein, SEM 3.1 vs 380 fmol.mg-1 protein, SEM 6.1, P less than 0.05), whereas atrial tissue [ANP] was not significantly different between controls and trained animals. However, in trained rats, circulating [ANP] was closely correlated with left atrial [ANP] (r = -0.92, P less than 0.05). Resting systolic blood pressure had not changed at the end of this physical training programme. It is considered that under physiological conditions ANP may be involved in long-term extracellular fluid volume homeostasis through the regulation of renal glomerular ANP receptors, and that the left atrium might play a significant role in this long term fluid volume control.
