Abstract

We studied the effect of endothelial monocyte-activating polypeptide-II (EMAP II) on endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation in old rats. It was found a violation of endotheliumdependent aorta relaxation in these animals, the average value of its amplitude was 7.5±1.4% compared with 64.9±3.5% in healthy adult rats. EMAP II significantly improved endothelium-dependent relaxation in old animals, the average value of its amplitude increased to 66.6±6.8%. This effect was due to oxidative stress inhibition, cNOS recoupling and increasing of constitutive NO-synthesis; thus, index of cNOS coupling/ uncoupling increased by 51 times and cNOS activity increased by 2.8 times.

Keywords: endothelial monocyte-activating polypeptide-II; aging; endothelium-dependent relaxation; oxidative stress; nitric oxide
