| Abstract;In guinea pig ileal longitudinal smooth muscle, the high K+ - or Carbachol(CCh)-induced contraction was inhibited by an addition of NaCN in a concentration-dependent manner. NaCN inhibited the increase in oxidized flavoprotein fluorescence by high K+ or CCh, but it enhanced the increase in reduced pyridine nucleotide fluorescence. High K+ or CCh induced a contraction with an increase in intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) level. NaCN inhibited the high K+- or CCh-induced contraction by decreasing [Ca2+]i level. When NaCN was applied to the muscle, the rate of O2 consumption was significantly reduced, and decreased O2 consumption was not restored by Ca2+ addition. In summary, by the simultaneous measurement of the fluorescence of PNred and FPox with force development, the inhibitory effect of NaCN on high K+- and CCh-induced contraction of the longitudinal muscle of guinea-pig ileum was confirmed to be the result of the inhibition of aerobic metabolism. NaCN was suspected as not being involved in the inhibition of Ca2+ influx by the ATP-sensitive K+ channel activation which chromakalim displays. (author abst.) |
