18487445 Viel EC, Benkirane K, Javeshghani D, Touyz RM, Schiffrin EL: Xanthine oxidase and mitochondria contribute to vascular superoxide anion generation in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol. 2008 Jul;295(1):H281-8. Epub 2008 May 16.

O (2)(*-) generation decreased with in situ treatment by tenoyltrifluoroacetone and CCCP, inhibitors of mitochondrial electron transport complexes II and IV, respectively, whereas rotenone (mitochondrial complex I inhibitor) had no effect.
Systolic blood pressure rose in DOCA-salt rats and was reduced after 3 wk by apocynin [NAD (P) H oxidase inhibitor and/or radical scavenger], allopurinol (XO inhibitor), bosentan (ET (A/B) receptor antagonist), BMS-182874 (BMS; ET (A) receptor antagonist), and hydralazine.

The receptor mechanisms were determined by BQ-123 and BQ-788, receptor antagonists for ET (A) and ET (B) receptors, respectively, and also by IRL-1620, a selective agonist for ET (B) receptors.
In addition, the changes induced by adding apocynin (10 microM), myr-PKC (1.0 microM), allopurinol (100 microM), rotenone (10 microM), or L-NAME (100 microM) with ET-1 were evaluated.

Primary cultured cardiomyocytes from neonatal rats were pretreated with rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I inhibitor, and the cytotoxic effect of endothelin-1 on the cardiomyocytes was demonstrated.
The enhancement of the decrease in pH and cell injury induced by endothelin-1 was counteracted by the endothelin ET (A) receptor antagonist BQ123 or by maintaining the pH of the medium by the addition of 50 mM HEPES.
