| Abstract | Previous studies have demonstrated an important role for the cytochrome P450 (CYT-P450) pathway in afferent arteriole autoregulatory responses but the involvement of specific pathways remains unknown. Experiments were performed to determine the role of CYT-P450 epoxygenase and hydroxylase pathways in pressure mediated preglomerular autoregulatory responses. Afferent arteriolar diameter was measured as renal perfusion pressure was increased from 80-160 mmHg. Afferent arteriolar diameter averaged 19+/-2 microm at a renal perfusion pressure of 80 mmHg and decreased by 15+/-2% when pressure was increased to 160 mmHg. Inhibition of the epoxygenase pathway with 6-(2-proparglyloxyphenyl)hexanoic acid (PPOH), enhanced the microvascular response to increasing renal perfusion pressure. In the presence of 50 microM PPOH, afferent arteriolar diameter decreased by 29+/-4% when pressure was increased from 80-160 mmHg. Likewise, the sulphonimide derivative of PPOH, N-methylsulphonyl-6-(2-proparglyloxyphenyl) hexanamide (MS-PPOH, 50 microM), enhanced the afferent arteriolar response to increasing renal perfusion pressure. In contrast, the selective CYT-P450 hydroxylase inhibitor, N-methylsulphonyl-12,12-dibromododec-11-enamide (DDMS) attenuated the vascular response to increasing renal perfusion pressure. In the pressure of 25 microM DDMS, afferent arteriolar diameter decreased by 4+/-2% when pressure was increased from 80-160 mmHg. These results suggest that CYT-P450 metabolites of the epoxygenase pathway alter afferent arteriolar responsiveness and thereby modify the ability of the preglomerular vasculature to autoregulate renal blood flow. Additionally, these results provide further support to the concept that a metabolite of the hydroxylase pathway is an integral component of the afferent arteriolar response to elevations in perfusion pressure. |

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.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
