To elucidate the effect of calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP), vasoactive intestinal peptide(VIP) and substance P was investigated with perivascular nerve stimulation and treatment of peptides from polygraph in the isolated renal artery of rabbit. 1. The neurogenic contraction induced by perivascular nerve stimulation was the frequency-dependent manner(264 Hz) in the isolated renal artery of rabbit. 2. CGRP and VIP caused the relaxation on the precontraction with noradrenaline($10{\mu}m$) on the presence and absence of endothelium in the isolated renal artery of rabbit. 3. Substance P caused the endothelium-dependent relaxation on the precontraction with noradrenaline($10{\mu}m$) in the isolated renal artery of rabbit. 4. CGRP and VIP inhibited the neurogenic contraction by the perivascular nerve stimulation(0.3 ms, 80 V, 50 Hz, 1 sec) on the absence and presence of endothelium in the isolated renal artery of rabbit. 5. Substance P inhibited on the neurogenic contraction by the perivascular nerve stimulation with the endothelium-dependent in the isolated renal artery of rabbit.

The aim of this study was to demonstrate the effects of silver spike point (SSP) low frequency electrical stimulation on plasma vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) activities measured by radioimmunoassay from volunteer and the effects of VIP on pain substance-induced contraction investigated by isometric tension methode in animal. The current of 3 Hz continue type, but not 100 Hz continue type, of SSP low frequency electrical stimulation significantly increased in plasma VIP from normal volunteer. The pain substance, such as norepinephrine, serotonin, and prostaglandin $F2{\alpha}$, increased vascular smooth muscle contraction, respectively. These responses were inhibited by VIP applied cumulatively (1 nM - $1\;{\mu}M$), but not serotonin-induced contraction. In addition, serotonin, and prostaglandin $F2{\alpha}$ induced uterine smooth muscle contraction from rat. However, these responses were inhibited by VIP ($1\;{\mu}M$), only serotonin-induced contraction. These results suggest that the VIP regulates pain substance in part and that the SSP low frequency electrical stimulation, specifically current of 3 Hz continue type, significantly increases plasma VIP from volunteer.

The effects of removing the endothelium on the vasodilatory response to substance P, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) was examined in the isolated rabbit renal artery. The vasodilator response to substance P ($0.1{\mu}M$) was completely absent in vessels in which the endothelium had previously been removed. There was no significant difference in the vasodilatation produced in response to CGRP ($0.1{\mu}M$), or VIP ($0.1{\mu}M$) in the intact and removed-endothelium rabbit renal artery segments. L-NAME ($100{\mu}M$) significantly reduced the vasodilatory response to substance P ($0.1{\mu}M$). This inhibition was significantly attenuated when L-arginine (10 mM) was also present in the organ bath along with L-NAME ($100{\mu}M$). Indomethacin ($1{\mu}M$) did not significantly affect the vasodilatation produced in response to substance P ($0.1{\mu}M$). The inhibitory effect of L-NAME ($100{\mu}M$) and indomethacin ($1{\mu}M$) on the vasodilatory response to substance P ($0.1{\mu}M$) was not significantly different from that produced by L-NAME ($100{\mu}M$) alone. This study indicates that substance P induced vasodilatation via an endothelium-dependent mechanism in the isolated rabbit renal artery. It also established that CGRP and VIP induced vasodilatation by an endothelium-independent mechanism and substance P-induced vasodilatation is at least partially via NO.

To elucidate the mechanism involved in the cerebral vascular spasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), the effects of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) obtained from the SAH patients on the resting tension and its influence on the contractile responses to various vasoactive agents and to hypoxia were investigated in isolated porcine cerebral arteries. All the CSFs containing hemoglobin (Hb) produced contraction and some Hb-free CSFs also elicited contraction. When the Hb-free CSF was separated by microfilter, the filtrate of ＜30,000 MW did not produce contraction, while the fraction above 30,000 MW elicited more marked contractile responses than the unfractionated CSF. The CSF contraction was significantly attenuated in the presence of indomethacin or nimodipine, whereas the contractions induced by KCl, prostaglandin $F_{2{\alpha}}$ ($PGF_{2{\alpha}}$), or endothelin-1 (ET-1) were not affected by the CSF pretreatment. However, the contractile responses induced by 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and phenylephrine (PE) were markedly potentiated by the pretreatment. Hypoxia-induced vasoconstriction was significantly potentiated by the pretreatment with either unfractionated CSF or the CSF fraction of above 30,000 MW. These results suggest that unknown vasocontractile substance(s) exists in the Hb-free CSF and that the substance, with its MW above 30,000, is activated by hypoxia and acts synergistically with 5-HT and PE, and that extracellular calcium influx and cyclooxygenase are also involved in the cerebral vasoconstrictory effect of Hb-free CSF.

This study was performed to identify the localization of several neuropeptides; calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP), substance P(SP), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide(VIP), neuropeptide Y(NPY), serotonin(5-HT) and neurotensin in the tongue of Korean native goat(Capra hircus) by immunohistochemical method. The results were summarized as follows: CGRP- and SP-immunoreactive fibers were observed as moderate immunoreactivity at the subepithelial plexus and subgemmal fibers in lamina propria of lingual papillae, but not seen in intragemmal, intergemmal, perigemmal fibers as well as in the supporting, basal and taste cells. Fibers around the acinus of the von Ebner's gland and blood vessels showed weak immunoreactivities against CGRP and SP. In the intrinsic ganglion cells, CGRP- and SP-immunoreactivities were not observed. The distribution patterns of VIP- and NPY-immunoreactive fibers were similar to CGRP-or SP-immunoreactive fibers, but their immunoreactivities were stronger than those of CGRP- or SP immunoreactive fibers. The immunoreactivities to VIP or NPY were seen in the intrinsic ganglion. Only a few serotonin immunoreactive fibers were seen in some filiform or fungiform papillae. Neurotensin immunoreactivity was not observed in the tongue of Korean native goat.

This study was carry out to identify the distribution of calcium binding proteins; calbindin(CB), calretinin(CR) and parvalbumin(PA) in the suprachiasmatic nucleus(SCN) of the Korean native goat by immunohistochemical methods. The expression of substance P(SP), calcitonin gene-related peptide(CG-RP), neuropeptide Y(NPY), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide(VIP) and galanin(GAL) were also investigated. CR-immunoreactivity was found in both of the cell bodies and fibers in the SCN, which the CB-immunoreactivity was observed only in the fibers. The immunoreactivity for VIP was observed in both the cell bodies and fibers, but SP-, NPY, GAL-immunoreactivities were only found in the fibers. CGRP-immunoreactivity was not seen in cell body and fibers. These results suggest that VIP, SP, NPY and GAL play a neuromodulatory or/ and neurotransmitter roles in cooperation with CB and CR in SCN of the Korean native goat.

우측 위대망동맥이 관상동맥 우회로 이식술에 사용되는 이식혈관으로서 관심을 끌게 된 것은 1980년대 중반 관동맥 우회로 이식술후 내유동맥의 장기 개통성이 복재정맥에 비하여 우수하다는 것이 알려진 다음부터였다. 처음에는 재수술을 하는 경우 등에서 사용 가능한 다른 이식혈관이 없을 때만 선택되었고 이식장소도 심장 후면에 위치하고 있는 후하행지 등에 제한되었으나, 최근에는 좌전하행지에도 이식되고 있고 위대망동맥의 중단기 개통성이 내유동맥의 것과 비슷한 것으로 보고된바 있으며, 일차 수술에서도 선택되는 경우가 늘어 나서 내유동맥과 복재정맥 다음으로 중요한 이식혈관이 되었다. 아직 장기 개통성이 알려 있지 않은 위대 망동맥에 대하여 이식도관으로서의 기능과 개통성 등을 연구하기 위해서 이 혈관의 수축성 및 이완성이 조사된 바 있으나 결과들이 일치하지 않고 있다. 본 실험에서는 위절제술을 받는 환자들에서 수술 중에 위대망동맥을 채취하여 고리절편으로 만든 후 organ bath내에 장치하여 혈관 수축제 및 이완제에 대한 반응을 측정함으로써 도관으로서의 가치 평가를 함과 동시에 이식된 도관의 경련발생 및 이의 치료를 위한 이완제 투여 등에 관해 연구하였다. 수축제들 중 epinephrine, noprepinephrine 및 KCl은 강한 수축력을 보였고 5-HT의 수축력이 가장 약했으며 전자들의 것과 비교했을 때 유의한 차이를 보였다. Nitroprusside과 histamine은 norepinephrine으로 유도된 수축의 거의 전부를 이완시켰으며 acetylcholine의 이완력은 이들의 것에 비해 유의하게 약했다. 이완제들중 isoproterenol의 이완력이 가장 약했으며 나머지 이완제들의 것과 비교했을 때 유의한 차이를 보였다. 이상에서 위대망동맥의 강한 내피세포 의존성 이완력은 본 혈관이 관상동맥우회로이식술에 도관으로 사용되었 을 때 개통성 유지에 중요한 역할을 할 것이고, 위대망동맥은 catecholamine에 대한 반응이 커서 관상동맥우회 로이식술후 혈중 catecholamine치료가 상승하는 경우에는 이식된 위대망동맥에 경련이 발생할 가능성이 있으며, 이의 치료에는 nitroprusside가 효과적일 것으로 추정된다. 또한 내피세포가 보존된 위대망동맥의 beta-adrenoceptor 촉진제 및 5-HT에 대한 반응은 약할 것으로 생각된다.

Recently endogenous digitalis-like substances were found in the blood of various cardiovascular diseases and they have been considered one of the causes of evoking hypertension. However, the mechanism of endogenous digitalis-like substances-induced hypertension is not clarified yet. Therefore, the effects of Na-K pump inhibition on the contractility of vascular smooth muscle[conduit and resistant artery were investigated, using organ bath and bioassay experiment. Aortic and carotid arterial rings[conduit artery and the branches of brachial and superior mesenteric artery[resistant artery were used to find the effect of Na-K pump inhibition. The results obtained were as followes;The magnitudes of contractions induced by norepinephrine, serotonin, or acetylcholine in all these arteries were significantly increased by the inhibition of Na-K pump. The increased contractile responses to these agonists, especially to serotonin, were much more prominant in resistant arteries. Nitroprusside-induced relaxations were attenuated by Na-K pump inhibition and there were no significant differences in the effects of Na-K pump inhibition on nitroprusside-induced relaxations of these blood vessels. Endothelium-dependent relaxation was suppressed by the inhibition of Na-K pump, especially by the administration of ouabain, and this inhibitory effect was much more prominent in the branches of superior mesenteric artery, compared with other arteries. In the branches of superior mesenteric arteries, endothelium-dependent relaxation was completely blocked by ouabain. The release of EDRF was partially suppressed by Na-K pump inhibition.From the above results, it is suggested that the hypertension due to the increase in vascular resistance can be evoked by the inhibition of Na-K pump and endogenous digitalis-like substances induce hypertension through this mechanism.
