英文摘要 | Aim: Ginsenosides are considered to be the major pharmacologically active ginseng constituents, whereas 20(S)-protopanaxadiol [20(S)-PPD] is the active metabolite of ginsenosides in gut. In this study we investigated the effect of 20(S)-PPD on isolated rat thoracic aortas as well as its vasorelaxant mechanisms. Methods: Aortic rings with or without endothelium were prepared from Wistar rats and suspended in organ-chambers. The changes in tension of the preparations were recorded through isometric transducers connected to a data acquisition system. The aortic rings were precontracted with phenylephrine (PE, 1 mu mol/L) or high-K+ (80 mmol/L). Results: Application of 20(S)-PPD (21.5-108.5 mu mol/L) caused concentration-dependent vasodilation of endothelium-intact aortic rings precontracted with PE or high-K+, which resulted in the EC50 values of 90.4 or 46.5 mu mol/L, respectively. The removal of endothelium had no effect on 20(S)-PPD-induced relaxation. The vasorelaxant effect of 20(S)-PPD was also not influenced by the preincubation with beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist propranolol, or with ATP-sensitive K+ channel blocker glibenclamide, voltage-dependent K+ channel blocker 4-AP and inward rectifier K+ channel blocker BaCl2, whereas it was significantly attenuated by the preincubation with Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) channel blocker TEA (1 mmol/L). Furthermore, the inhibition of NO synthesis, cGMP and prostacyclin pathways did not affect the vasorelaxant effect of 20(S)-PPD. In Ca2+-free solution, 20(S)-PPD (108.5 mu mol/L) markedly decreased the extracellular Ca2+-induced contraction in aortic rings precontracted with PE or high-K+ and reduced PE-induced transient contraction. Voltage-dependent Ca2+ channel antagonist nifedipine inhibited PE-induced contraction; further inhibition was observed after the application of receptor-operated Ca2+ channel inhibitor SK&F 96365 or 20(S)-PPD. Conclusion: 20(S)-PPD induces vasorelaxation via an endothelium-independent pathway. The inhibition of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels and receptor-operated Ca2+ channels and the activation of Ca2+-activated K+ channels are probably involved in the relaxation. |
