چکیده انگلیسی
Urotensin-II is purported to influence pulmonary function by modulating smooth muscle tone/growth. In the present study, Northern blot and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis indicated the presence of UT receptor mRNA in cat trachea, bronchi and lung parenchyma. Urotensin-II contracted cat isolated trachea and bronchi with similar potencies (pEC50s 8.61 ± 0.07-8.81 ± 0.10). Contractile efficacies ranged from 19 ± 9% to 63 ± 11% KCl in the primary and secondary bronchi. The peptidic UT receptor antagonists BIM-23127, SB-710411 and GSK248451 (7.18 ± 0.12, 7.52 ± 0.08 and 9.05 ± 0.16 cat recombinant UT pKis) inhibited urotensin-II-induced contraction of cat isolated trachea with pKbs 6.36 ± 0.11, 6.74 ± 0.07 and 9.27 ± 0.12, respectively. As such, feline lung contains significant amounts of UT mRNA and this receptor appears to be functionally coupled to bronchoconstriction (the peptidic tool compound GSK248451 representing a sub-nanomolar inhibitor of such effects). These findings suggest that the cat represents a suitable species for future studies designed to assess the effects of the urotensin-II receptor on pulmonary (patho)physiology.
