Abstract
The effects of blockade of glycolysis on the contractile activity
of isolated vascular rings of both the pulmonary artery
and. the thoracic aorta were studied under hypoxia in intact,
denuded vessels and those with blocked myoendothelial electrical
coupling. The blockade of glycolysis led to a reversion
of a hypoxic contraction in the pulmonary artery but had no
effect on hypoxic dilatation of the aorta. Hypoxic constriction
of the pulmonary artery was abolished after denudation
and stayed unchanged at the following blockade of glycolysis.
Moreover, blockade of glycolysis had no effect on the
hypoxic responses of the pulmonary artery after blockade of
the myoendothelial gap junctions. The data suggest that hypoxic
contraction of the pulmonary artery is endothelium-dependent,
in contrast to the hypoxic dilatation of the aorta.
It is likely that glycolysis in endothelial cells and myoendothelial
gap junctions contribute to hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction
due to formation and conduction the depolarizing electrical signals from endothelial cells to smooth muscles
causing their contraction under hypoxia.
