| Abstract | The effects of sodium nitroprusside, 8-bromo cyclic GMP, 8-bromoguanosine 5'-monophosphate, 8-bromo cyclic AMP, dibutyryl cyclic AMP, and isoproterenol on incorporation of (32)P into proteins in intact rat thoracic aorta were studied. Aortas were incubated in [(32)P]orthophosphate in order to label endogenous adenosine triphosphate. Agents were then added for various times and the tissues were homogenized and fractionated (100,000 x g for 60 min) into soluble and particulate fractions. Soluble and particulate fractions were subjected to isoelectric focusing followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiographs were made. Nitroprusside induced a concentration-dependent increase in incorporation of (32)P into nine proteins and a decrease in (32)P incorporation into two proteins. Some of these proteins appeared in both the soluble and particulate fractions of homogenates; others appeared only in the soluble fraction. The pattern of (32)P incorporation was identical after 2- or 15-min exposure to nitroprusside and was mimicked by exposure to 50-500 muM 8-bromo cyclic GMP. 8-Bromoguanosine 5'-monophosphate did not alter (32)P incorporation. Dibutyryl cyclic AMP at 50 muM had no effect upon (32)P incorporation whereas a higher concentration (0.5 mM) caused increased or decreased (32)P incorporation into some, but not all, of the same proteins. 8-Bromo cyclic AMP (5 mM) produced only small changes in (32)P incorporation. The pattern of (32)P incorporation induced by a relatively high concentration of isoproterenol 0.1 mM was similar but not identical to that seen with 0.5 mM dibutyryl cyclic AMP. The present study indicates that the incorporation of (32)P into endogenous proteins of intact rat aorta can be regulated by nitroprusside. These effects can be mimicked by cyclic GMP analogues and only partially by cyclic AMP analogues or isoproterenol. Presumably, these effects of nitroprusside are mediated through a cyclic GMP-dependent process (protein kinase or phosphatase) which may play a role in the relaxant properties of nitroprusside and cyclic GMP. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
