Levobupivacaine-induced vasoconstriction involves caldesmon phosphorylation mediated by tyrosine kinase-induced ERK phosphorylation

The goals of this study were to examine the cellular signaling pathways associated with the phosphorylation of caldesmon, the phosphorylation-dependent inhibitory protein of myosin phosphatase (CPI-17), and the 20-kDa regulatory light chain of myosin (MLC20) induced by levobupivacaine in isolated ra...

Zusammenfassung:The goals of this study were to examine the cellular signaling pathways associated with the phosphorylation of caldesmon, the phosphorylation-dependent inhibitory protein of myosin phosphatase (CPI-17), and the 20-kDa regulatory light chain of myosin (MLC20) induced by levobupivacaine in isolated rat aortas. The effects of genistein, tyrphostin 23, GF109203X, PD98059, Y-27632, 1-butanol, and ML-7 HCl on levobupivacaine-induced contraction were assessed. The effect of genistein on the simultaneous calcium-tension curves induced by levobupivacaine was examined. The effects of GF109203X, genistein, PD98059 and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) siRNA on levobupivacaine-induced caldesmon phosphorylation were investigated. The effect of genistein on the ERK and tyrosine phosphorylation induced by levobupivacaine was examined. The effect of GF109203X, PD98059, Y-27632, SP600125, and ML-7 HCl on the levobupivacaine-induced phosphorylation of CPI-17 and MLC20 were investigated. Genistein, tyrphostin 23, GF109203X, PD98059, Y-27632, ML-7 HCl, and 1-butanol attenuated levobupivacaine-induced contraction. Genistein caused a right downward shift of the calcium-tension curves induced by levobupivacaine. Genistein attenuated levobupivacaine-induced phosphorylation of protein tyrosine, ERK and caldesmon. PD98059, ERK siRNA and GF109203X attenuated levobupivacaine-induced caldesmon phosphorylation. GF109203X, Y-27632, SP600125, ML-7 HCl and PD98059 attenuated CPI-17 phosphorylation and MLC20 phosphorylation induced by levobupivacaine. These results suggest that levobupivacaine-induced caldesmon phosphorylation contributing to levobupivacaine-induced contraction is mediated by a pathway involving ERK, which is activated by tyrosine kinase or protein kinase C (PKC). The phosphorylation of CPI-17 and MLC20 induced by levobupivacaine is mediated by cellular signaling pathways involving PKC, Rho-kinase, and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase or PKC, Rho-kinase, ERK, and myosin light chain kinase.
