Research Abstract |
We have reported that reinnervation and/or redistribution of perivascular nerves induced by nerve growth factor(NGF) were associated with activation of angiotensin receptors(ATR). The present study was designed to investigate the precise role of ATR in NGF-induced reinnervation of perivascular nerves in rat mesenteric arteries. In in vivo study, perivascular adrenergic and CGRPergic nerves in distal mesenteric arteries were injured by topical application of Phenol on the superior mesenteric artery. The density of perivascular innervation was determined by computer-assist immunohistochemical methods. NGF facilitated reinnervation of perivascular sympathetic NPY-or TH-containing nerves and CGRP-containing nerves injured by topical phenol application in rat superior mesenteric artery. AT1R antagonist inhibited reinnervation of TH-containing nerves and AT2R antagonist suppressed reinnervation of CGRP-containing nerves. In in vitro study using primal culture of superior cervical ganglia(SCG) cells and dorsal root ganglia(DRG) cells, NGF facilitated outgrowth of neurite from cell body and AT2R mRNAexpression. In DRG cells, AT2R, but not AT1R, antagonist inhibited NGF-induced neurite outgrowth, while AT1R antagonist inhibited NGF-induced increase in AT2R mRNA expression. In SCG cells, AT1R and AT2R antagonists inhibited NGF-induced neurite outgrowth. These results suggest that NGF facilitates perivascular reinnervation through activation of angiotensin receptors, type 2 subtype.
