血管紧张素(Ang)-(1-7)的抗血栓作用已有报道,但其作用机制尚不清楚。我们研究了血小板和受体mass相关机制在这一作用中的参与。我们使用Western blotting检测大鼠血小板中Mas蛋白的存在,并使用荧光标记FAM-Ang-(1-7)来确定大鼠血小板和Mas(-/-)和Mas(+/+)小鼠血小板中Ang-(1-7)的特异性结合及其被受体Mas拮抗剂A-779取代。为了检测Ang-(1-7)是否诱导血小板释放NO,我们使用NO指标DAF-FM。此外,我们还研究了Mas在雄性Mas(-/-)和Mas(+/+)小鼠腔静脉诱导血栓的Ang(1-7)抗血栓作用中的作用。通过测定Mas(+/+)和Mas(-/-)小鼠的出血时间来评估Mas在止血中的功能相关性。我们通过Western Blot观察到血小板中存在Mas蛋白,并且A-779取代了荧光Ang-(1-7)与大鼠血小板的结合。此外,在Mas(+/+)小鼠血小板中,我们发现了Ang-(1-7)的特异性结合,而在Mas(-/-)小鼠血小板中没有。Ang-(1-7)从大鼠和Mas(+/+)小鼠的血小板中释放NO,而A-779阻断了这一作用。在Mas(-/-)小鼠血小板中,Ang-(1-7)刺激的NO释放被消除。Ang-(1-7)抑制Mas(+/+)小鼠血栓形成。引人注目的是,这种效应在Mas(-/-)小鼠中被消除了。此外,Mas缺乏导致出血时间显著缩短(8.50 +/- 1.47 vs. 4.28 +/- 0.66 min)。这项研究首次证实了Mas蛋白在大鼠和小鼠血小板中存在,并与Ang-(1-7)特异性结合。我们的数据还表明,Ang-(1-7)抗血栓作用涉及mas介导的血小板NO释放。更重要的是,我们发现Ang-(1-7)在体内的抗血栓作用依赖于Mas,并且Mas在止血中具有重要的功能。
The antithrombotic effect of angiotensin(Ang)-(1-7) has been reported, but the mechanism of this effect is not known. We investigated the participation of platelets and receptor Mas-related mechanisms in this action. We used Western blotting to test for the presence of Mas protein in rat platelets and used fluorescent-labeled FAM-Ang-(1-7) to determine the specific binding for Ang-(1-7) and its displacement by the receptor Mas antagonist A-779 in rat platelets and in Mas(-/-) and Mas(+/+) mice platelets. To test whether Ang-(1-7) induces NO release from platelets, we used the NO indicator DAF-FM. In addition we examined the role of Mas in the Ang(1-7) antithrombotic effect on induced thrombi in the vena cava of male Mas(-/-) and Mas(+/+) mice. The functional relevance of Mas in hemostasis was evaluated by determining bleeding time in Mas(+/+) and Mas(-/-) mice. We observed the presence of Mas protein in platelets, as indicated by Western Blot, and displacement of the binding of fluorescent Ang-(1-7) to rat platelets by A-779. Furthermore, in Mas(+/+) mouse platelets we found specific binding for Ang-(1-7), which was absent in Mas(-/-) mouse platelets. Ang-(1-7) released NO from rat and Mas(+/+) mouse platelets, and A-779 blocked this effect. The NO release stimulated by Ang-(1-7) was abolished in Mas(-/-) mouse platelets. Ang-(1-7) inhibited thrombus formation in Mas(+/+) mice. Strikingly, this effect was abolished in Mas(-/-) mice. Moreover, Mas deficiency resulted in a significant decrease in bleeding time (8.50 +/- 1.47 vs. 4.28 +/- 0.66 min). This study is the first to show the presence of Mas protein and specific binding for Ang-(1-7) in rat and mouse platelets. Our data also suggest that the Ang-(1-7) antithrombotic effect involves Mas-mediated NO release from platelets. More importantly, we showed that the antithrombotic effect of Ang-(1-7) in vivo is Mas dependent and that Mas is functionally important in hemostasis.
