Myogenic and metabolic feedback in cerebral autoregulation: Putative involvement of arachidonic acid-dependent pathways
2016, Medical HypothesesCitation Excerpt :Given that metabolic feedback involves an oxygen sensing mechanism that modulates cerebrovascular myogenic tone, a vasodilating metabolite that antagonises the 20-HETE-dependent pathways on cerebrovascular tone is likely involved. Even though nitric oxide is such a classic functional antagonist of 20-HETE signalling [54], a number of studies stress that it is a mere modulator and not a mediator of cerebral autoregulation [55–64]. In the following section, I propose epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) as more likely mediators of autoregulatory vasodilation.
Nitric oxide and cerebrovascular regulation
2014, Vitamins and HormonesCitation Excerpt :To date, studies suggest that vascular signaling by NO is primarily mediated by smooth muscle cGMP, which is converted by NO-activated GC from guanosine triphosphate. Effects of cGMP occur through cGMP-dependent protein kinases (PKGs) or cGMP-gated cation channels (Kelly, Ritchie, & Arbuthnott, 1995; Macrae, Dawson, Norrie, & McCulloch, 1993; McPherson, Kirsch, Ghaly, & Traystman, 1995; Saito, Wilson, Hanley, & Traystman, 1994). In pressurized and isolated mice cerebral arteries, under NOS inhibition, the resting diameter is reestablished by the cGMP analogue, 8-Br-cGMP, while it is decreased in the presence of the soluble GC blocker, ODQ (iH [1,2,4]oxadiazole [4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one) (Gao, Dhanakoti, Tolsa, & Raj, 1999; Piggott et al., 2006).
