Mg 2 1 -induced endothelium-dependent relaxation of blood vessels and blood pressure lowering: role of NO. Am. J. Physiol. Regulatory Integrative Comp. Physiol. 278: R628–R639, 2000.—In vitro extracellular Mg 2 1 concentration ([Mg 2 1 ] 0 ) produces endothe-lium-dependent and endothelium-independent relaxations in rat aorta in a concentration-dependent manner. These relaxant effects of Mg 2 1 on intact rat aortic rings, but not denuded rat aortic rings, were suppressed by either N G -monomethyl- L arginine ( L -NMMA), N v -nitro- L -argininemethylester( L -NAME), or methylene blue. The inhibitory effects of L -NMMA and L -NAME could be reversed partly by L -arginine. [Mg 2 1 ] 0 induced dilatation in vivo in rat mesenteric arterioles and venules was almost completely inhibited by N G -nitro- L arginine and L -NMMA. Removal of extracellular Ca 2 1 concentration ([Ca 2 1 ] 0 ) or buffering intracellular Ca 2 1 concentration in endothelial cells, with 10 µM 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)- ethane- N , N , N 8 , N 8 -tetraacetic acid-AM, markedly attenuated the relaxant effects of Mg 2 1 . Mg 2 1 produced nitric oxide (NO) release from the intact aortic rings in a concentration- dependent manner. Removal of [Ca 2 1 ] 0 diminished the increased NO release induced by elevated levels of [Mg 2 1 ] 0 . In vivo infusion of increasing doses (1–30 µM/min) of MgSO 4 , directly into the femoral veins of anesthetized rats, elicited significant concentration-dependent sustained increases in serum total Mg and concomitant decreases in arterial blood pressure. Before and after employment of various doses of MgSO 4 , intravenous administration of either L -NMMA (10 mg/kg) or L -NAME (10 mg/kg) increased (i.e., reversed) the MgSO 4 -lowered blood pressure markedly, and intravenous injection of L -arginine restored partially the increased blood pressure effects of both L -NMMA and L -NAME. Our results suggest that 1 ) small blood vessels are very dependent on NO release for Mg 2 1 dilatations and 2 ) the endothelium-depen-dent relaxation induced by extracellular Mg 2 1 is mediated by release of endothelium-derived relaxing factor-NO from the endothelium, and requires Ca 2 1 and formation of guanosine 3 8 ,5 8 -cyclic monophosphate.
