The calcium-activated K＋ (BKCa) channel is one of the potassium-selective ion channels that are present in the nervous and vascular systems. Ca2＋ is the main regulator of BKCa channel activation. The BKCa channel contains two high affinity Ca2＋ binding sites, namely, regulators of K＋ conductance, RCK1 and the Ca2＋ bowl. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, 1-radyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphate) is one of the neurolipids. LPA affects diverse cellular functions on many cell types through G protein-... -

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated in various cells, including vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells, and regulate ion channel functions. KCa3.1 plays an important role in endothelial functions. However, the effects of superoxide and hydrogen peroxide radicals on the expression of this ion channel in the endothelium remain unclear. In this study, we examined the effects of ROS donors on KCa3.1 expression and the K＋ current in primary cultured human umbilical vein endothelial... -

Recent studies have demonstrated that nitric oxide (NO) activates transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1) via S-nitrosylation of the channel protein. NO also modulates various cellular functions via activation of the soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)/protein kinase G (PKG) pathway and the direct modification of proteins. Thus, in the present study, we investigated whether NO could indirectly modulate the activity of TRPV1 via a cGMP/PKG-dependent pathway in cultured rat dorsal root... -

Under some pathological conditions as bile flow obstruction or liver diseases with the enterohepatic circulation being disrupted, regurgitation of bile acids into the systemic circulation occurs and the plasma level of bile acids increases. Bile acids in circulation may affect the nervous system. We examined this possibility by studying the effects of bile acids on gating of neuronal (N)-type Ca2＋ channel that is essential for neurotransmitter release at synapses of the peripheral and central... -

non-specific BKCa blocker and iberiotoxin (IBX; 100 nM) a BKCa-specific blocker. Quercetin-induced membrane hyper</SUB>polarization was measured by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) with voltage sensitive dye, bis (1,3-dibutylbarbituric acid) trimethine oxonol (DiBAC4(3); 100 nM). Quercetin-evoked hyperpolarization was prevented by TEA. Quercetin produced an antiproliferative effect (30.3±13.5%) which was recovered to 53.3±10.5% and 72.9±3.7% by TEA and IBX, respectively. Taken... -
Possible Involvement of Ca2＋ Activated K＋ Channels, SK Channel, in the Quercetin-Induced Vasodilatation

Effects of quercetin, a kind of flavonoids, on the vasodilating actions were investigated. Among the mechanisms for quercetin-induced vasodilatation in rat aorta, the involvement with the Ca2＋ activated K＋ (KCa) channel was examined. Pretreatment with NE (5ՌM) or KCl (60 mM) was carried out and then, the modulation by quercetin of the constriction was examined using rat aorta ring strips (3 mm) at 36.5oC. Quercetin (0.1 to 100ՌM) relaxed the NE-induced vasoconstrictions in a... -

The dried roots of Danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza) and Sanchi (Panax notoginseng) have been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation as well as various other bodily functions. Here we investigated the effects of a mixture of aqueous extracts of Danshen and Sanchi, named PASEL, on blood pressure and vascular contractility in rats. Orally administered PASEL (62.5 mg/kg and 250 mg/kg, for 5 weeks) lowered the blood pressure of spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHR) but... -

presence of tempol. Furthermore, in voltage-clamped HUVECs, OxLDL enhanced SOC and evoked outward currents simultaneously. Clamping intracellular Ca2＋ to 1 ՌM activated large-conductance Ca2＋-activated K＋ (BKCa) current spontaneously, and this activated BKCa current was further enhanced by OxLDL or by LPC. From these results, we concluded that OxLDL or its main component LPC activates Ca2＋-permeable Ca2＋-activated NSC current and BKCa current simultaneously, thereby increasing SOC. -

Small and large conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (SKCa and BKCa) channels are implicated in the modulation of neuronal excitability. We investigated how changes in peripheral KCa channel activity affect mechanical sensitivity as well as the afferent fiber type responsible for KCa channel-induced mechanical sensitivity. Blockade of SKCa and BKCa channels induced a sustained decrease of mechanical threshold which was significantly attenuated by topical application of capsaicin onto afferent fiber and... -

The present study was attempted to investigate the effect of nicorandil, which is an ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel opener, on secretion of catecholamines (CA) evoked by cholinergic stimulation and membrane depolarization from the isolated perfused rat adrenal glands. The perfusion of nicorandil (0.3∼3.0 mM) into an adrenal vein for 90 min produced relatively dose-and time-dependent inhibition in CA secretion evoked by ACh (5.32 mM), high K+ (a direct membrane depolarizer, 56 mM), DMPP...
