Characterization of excitatory prostanoid receptors in the human umbilical artery in vitro.
    British journal of pharmacology, 1999, Volume: 128, Issue:7

    1. 5-HT and the prostanoid TP receptor agonists, U46619 and I-BOP, constricted the human umbilical artery with pEC50 values of 7.3+/-0. 2, 6.7+/-0.1, and 7.3+/-0.2, respectively. The selective TP receptor antagonist, GR32191 (0.1 microM), shifted the concentration-effect curves to U46619 and I-BOP to the right, but had no effect on the response to 5-HT. 2. The natural prostaglandins, PGF2alpha and PGE2, caused concentration-dependent contraction with pEC50 values of 5.2+/-0.2 and 4.9+/-0.2, respectively. PGD2 was a partial agonist with a pEC50 of 5.24+/-0.03. GR32191 (0.1 microM) inhibited the responses to all of these compounds suggesting that they produce contraction by acting at TP receptors. 3. Sulprostone failed to elicit contraction in the human umbilical artery at concentrations up to 4.4 microM suggesting the absence of EP1 and EP3 receptors. Despite this, 17-phenyltrinor PGE2 and GR63799 both induced contraction at concentrations above 1 microM, but the effects were sensitive to GR32191 (0.1 microM). 4. Fluprostenol had no effect on the human umbilical artery at concentrations up to 17 microM suggesting the absence of FP receptors. Cloprostenol was ineffective in two tissues, but caused contraction in one tissue at the highest concentration tested (1.7 microM). However, this response was abolished in the presence of GR32191 (0.1 microM). 5. The effects of four TP receptor antagonists were assessed by global non-linear regression analysis. GR32191, SQ29548, SQ30741, and ICI192605 competitively inhibited responses to U46619 with pKb values of 8.0+/-0.1, 7.6+/-0.1, 7.0+/-0. 2 and 8.1+/-0.1, respectively. 6 These results suggest that the human umbilical artery functionally expresses TP receptors, but not EP1, EP2 or FP receptors.

Local amplification of platelet function by 8-Epi prostaglandin F2alpha is not mediated by thromboxane receptor isoforms.
    The Journal of biological chemistry, 1996, Jun-21, Volume: 271, Issue:25

    8-epi-Prostaglandin (PG) F2alpha may be formed by cyclooxygenases 1 and 2 or by a free radical catalyzed process as an isoprostane. Concentrations of 8-epi-PGF2alpha in the range 1 nM to 1 microM induce a dose-dependent increase in platelet shape change, in calcium release from intracellular stores [Ca2+]iand in inositol phosphates; it also causes irreversible platelet aggregation, dependent on thromboxane generation, when incubated with subthreshold concentrations of ADP, thrombin, collagen, and arachidonic acid. Much higher concentrations of 8-epi-PGF2alpha (10-20 microM) alone induce weak, reversible aggregation. Although these effects are prevented by pharmacological thromboxane receptor antagonists, they are unlikely to be mediated by thromboxane receptors. Thus, 8-epi-PGF2alpha does not compete for binding at the stably expressed placental or endothelial isoforms of the thromboxane receptor or for binding of thromboxane ligands to human platelets. Furthermore, the response to 8-epi PGF2alpha exhibits structural specificity versus 8-epi PGF3alpha and PGF2alpha. Concentrations in the range that evoke its effects on platelets do not desensitize the aggregation response stimulated by thromboxane or PGH2 analogs. Unlike primary prostaglandins, which are rapidly metabolized to inactive products, 8-epi PGF2alpha circulates in plasma. However, the systemic concentrations found in healthy volunteers (median 48 pmol/liter) and in patients with hepatic cirrhosis (median 147 pmol/liter), a syndrome of oxidant stress in vivo, fall well below those which modulate platelet function. 8-Epi PGF2alpha may amplify the response to platelet agonists in syndromes where oxidant stress and platelet activation coincide. Despite blockade by thromboxane antagonists, 8-epi PGF2alpha does not activate either of the thromboxane receptor isoforms described in platelets. Activation of a distinct receptor would be consistent with the enzymatic formation of 8-epi PGF2alpha by cyclooxygenases. However, incidental activation of such a receptor by systemic concentrations of 8-epi PGF2alpha is unlikely to occur, even in syndromes of excessive free radical generation in vivo.

Antiaggregatory activity of 8-epi-prostaglandin F2 alpha and other F-series prostanoids and their binding to thromboxane A2/prostaglandin H2 receptors in human platelets.
    The Journal of pharmacology and experimental therapeutics, 1994, Volume: 270, Issue:3

    8-Epi-prostaglandin F2 alpha (8-epi-PGF 2 alpha) is a nonenzymatic, free radical-catalyzed peroxidation product of arachidonic acid that has potent biological activity, including contraction of vasculature and inhibition of aggregation induced by thromboxane (TX) A2 mimetics. In the present study, we demonstrate that 8-epi-PGF2 alpha could inhibit platelet aggregation induced by the TX mimetics U46619 and I-BOP as well as low-dose collagen but not thrombin or the primary wave of aggregation caused by high-dose ADP. The secondary (TX-dependent) wave of aggregation induced by high-dose ADP, however, was not affected. This suppression was dose dependent where 3.6 and 3.3 microM of 8-epi-PGF2 alpha caused 50% inhibition of platelet aggregation induced by U46619 and I-BOP, respectively, whereas 10 microM caused approximately 72% inhibition of collagen-induced aggregation. In contrast, 8-epi-PGF2 alpha significantly potentiated reversible platelet aggregation in response to low-dose ADP. These results indicate that 8-epi-PGF2 alpha has partial agonist activity. 9 alpha,11 beta-PGF2, a structural isomer of 8-epi-PGF2 alpha, inhibited platelet aggregation induced by collagen, high- and low-dose ADP and thrombin, demonstrating marked differences between structural isomers where 9 alpha,11 beta-PGF2 inhibited platelet aggregation induced by TX-dependent as well as TX-independent stimuli. In addition to platelet aggregation, we performed competition-binding assays on washed human platelets using [125I]BOP to further investigate the interaction of 8-epi-PGF2 alpha and 9 alpha,11 beta-PGF2 with TXA2/PGH2 receptors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Evidence for the existence of F2-isoprostane receptors on rat vascular smooth muscle cells.
    The American journal of physiology, 1993, Volume: 264, Issue:6 Pt 1

    The isoprostanes are nonenzymatically generated prostanoids synthesized in vivo in humans and rats through reactions catalyzed by free oxygen radicals. 8-Epi-prostaglandin F2 alpha (8-epi-PGF2 alpha), an F2-isoprostane, is a potent smooth muscle constrictor. A thromboxane A2 (TxA2) receptor antagonist, SQ 29548, blocks renal vasoconstriction during 8-epi-PGF2 alpha administration in rats. With the use of cultured rat aortic smooth muscle cells, we found specific binding sites for [3H]SQ 29548 and for [125I]BOP, a TxA2 agonist. Both ligands were displaced from these binding sites by 8-epi-PGF2 alpha, although with significantly lesser potency than nonlabeled SQ 29548, I-BOP, or U-46619, a TxA2 agonist. In contrast, 8-epi-PGF2 alpha stimulated inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production and DNA synthesis in these cells with significantly greater potency than any TxA2 agonist, effects only partially inhibited by SQ 29548. In human TxA2 receptor cDNA-transfected cells, competition by 8-epi-PGF2 alpha for specific [3H]SQ 29548 binding was negligible. Thus 8-epi-PGF2 alpha probably exerts its biological actions in vascular smooth muscle through activation of receptor sites related to but distinct from TxA2 receptors. The existence of such binding sites suggests novel avenues for investigation into the biology of TxA2 and of free radical-mediated tissue injury.
