Dissimilar mechansims of Ca2+ response to bradykinin in different types of juxtamedullary glomerular arterioles

Bradykinin (BK)-induced changes in intracellular calcium level ([Ca2+,) were studied on fura 2-loaded afferent (AA) and efferent glomerular arterioles (EA) microdissected from juxtamedullary renal cortex. A distinction was made between thin and muscular EA. In AA and both types of EA, BK increased [...

Zusammenfassung:Bradykinin (BK)-induced changes in intracellular calcium level ([Ca2+,) were studied on fura 2-loaded afferent (AA) and efferent glomerular arterioles (EA) microdissected from juxtamedullary renal cortex. A distinction was made between thin and muscular EA. In AA and both types of EA, BK increased [Ca2+], through activation of B2 receptors located only on the endothelium.
