摘要
The cardiovascular effects of estrogen are mediated in part by augmenting the function of endothelial nitric oxide synthase Endothelial nitric oxide synthase activity is dependent on many cofactors including Ca2+ Hence, we investigated the effect of chronic 17 beta-estradiol treatment on the intracellular Ca2+ concentration and endothelial nitric oxide synthase protein expression in the human endothelial cell line, EA.hy926. using spectrofluorometry and Western blot, respectively Inhibiting the sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase with thapsigargin caused an increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration, which was higher in chronically 17 beta-estradiol-treated (1 mu M, 24 h) cells loaded with Fura-2-acetoxymethyl ester compared to vehicle-treated cells, suggesting a higher endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ content in 17 beta-estradiol-treated cells. An enhanced Ca2- Influx pathway in chronically 17 beta-estradiol-treated cells was also observed In addition. 17 beta-estradiol-treated cells expressed higher levels of endothelial nitric oxide synthase protein in comparison to vehicle-treated cells The chronic effect of 17 beta-estradiol on Ca2+ homeostasis and endothelial nitric oxide synthase expression was attenuated with the nonselective estrogen receptor inhibitor, 10 182,780 (10 mu M, 7 alpha, 17 beta-[9-[(4,4,5,5,5-Pentafluoropentyl)sulfinyl]nonyl] estra-1,3,5(10)-triene-3,17-diol). Furthermore. analysis of the thapsigargin-evoked Ca2+ response in chronically 17 beta-estradiol-treated estrogen receptor alpha-knockdown cells showed no significant difference in Ca2+ response compared to vehicle-treated estrogen receptor alpha-knockdown cells, indicating that the regulation of Ca2+ homeostasis by 17 beta-estradiol is mediated through an estrogen receptor alpha-dependent pathway These data revealed an estrogen receptor alpha-dependent modulation of Ca2+ homeostasis accompanying the enhancement of endothelial nitric oxide synthase expression in 17 beta-estradiol-treated human endothelial cells.
