Involvement of protein kinase C and Na+/K+-ATPase in the contractile response induced by myricetin in rat isolated aorta.
The role of PKC and Na+/K+-ATPase in the vascular smooth muscle responses induced by the bioflavonoid myricetin was investigated. KCl induced a concentration-dependent relaxation in arteries exposed to K+-free solution that was mainly mediated by an activation of Na+/K+-ATPase. Myricetin (50 microM) partially inhibited this vasorelaxant effect induced by KCl in intact rings, being unaffected in the endothelium-denuded rings. This inhibitory effect induced by myricetin was suppressed by the PGH2-TXA2 receptor antagonist, SQ 29,548, and the PKC inhibitor, staurosporine. Myricetin also induced an endothelium-dependent contractile response which was increased in the presence of PMA and reduced by staurosporine. In conclusion, myricetin both modulates Na+/K+-ATPase-induced vasodilatation acting as a functional inhibitor of Na+/K+-ATPase activity and activates protein kinases, including PKC, to induce contraction. These effects appear to be related to the activation of PGH2-TXA2 receptors on vascular smooth muscle by the TXA2 released from endothelium.NA:noradrenalineNA+/K+-ATPase pump:sodium-potassium-activated ATPasePKC:protein kinase CPMA:phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetateTXA2:thromboxane A2The role of PKC and Na+/K+-ATPase in the vascular smooth muscle responses induced by the bioflavonoid myricetin was investigated.
