Role of hydrogen peroxide in ACh-induced dilation of human submucosal intestinal microvessels

Abstract: The endothelium plays an important role in maintaining vascular homeostasis by synthesizing and releasing several mediators of vasodilation, which include prostacyclin (PGI(2)), nitric oxide, and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF). We have recently defined the role of nitric oxide and PGI(2) in the dilation of submucosal intestinal arterioles from patients with normal bowel function. However, significant endothelium-dependent dilator capacity to ACh remained after inhibiting both these mediators… Show more

“…However, the ROS scavengers MnTBAP, a SOD mimetic, and PEG-CAT eliminated FID. This is consistent with previous studies where scavenging H 2 O 2 with catalase blocked flow and agonist-induced dilation in both human (17,35) and some animal (18) (40). MnTBAP, however, has both superoxide-and H 2 O 2 -scavenging effects (11), which might explain its net inhibitory action on FID in this study (see RESULTS).…”

“…1). In many cases, other endothelium-derived dilator substances compensate for the lack of NO release during flow (38) or agonist activation (17,38,54). This is consistent with the current observations since L-NAME plus Indo had no effect on FID in arterioles from patients with CAD.…”
