摘要
在自发性高血压大鼠 (SHR)的心肌和主动脉血管组织上观察牛磺酸 (taurine)转运和牛磺酸转运体(taurinetransporter,TAUT)mRNA的改变。结果显示 ,与对照组WKY大鼠相比 ,SHR组血浆牛磺酸水平和牛磺酸释放量增加 ,而心肌和血管组织牛磺酸水平和TAUTmRNA含量均降低 ,牛磺酸最大转运速率 (Vmax)分别低 2 4 %和 35 % (P <0 0 5 ) ,米氏常数 (Km)值分别高 16 %和 39% (P <0 0 5 )。这些结果提示 。
The alterations of taurine transport and the expression of taurine transporter (TAUT) mRNA in myocardium and aortic wall were investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats. It was demonstrated that plasma taurine concentration and taurine release from myocardium and aortic wall in SHR were higher than those in WKY rats, whereas taurine content, taurine uptake and TAUT mRNA in myocardium and aortic wall of SHR were lower than those of WKY rats. In SHR, the maximal velocity ( V max ) of taurine transportration in myocardium and aortic wall was lower by 24% ( P <0 05) and 35% ( P <0 05) than that in WKY, their michaelis constants (Km) values were higher by 16% ( P <0 05) and 39% ( P <0 05), respectively. The results suggest that there is dysfunction of taurine transport in myocardium and aortic wall in SHR, which may be partly resulted from the decrease of TAUT activity and affinity, and down regulation of TAUT gene expression.
