High salt (HS) intake can change the arterial tone in mice, and the nitric oxide (NO) acts as a mediator to some of the receptors mediated vascular response. The main aim of this study was to explore the mechanism behind adenosine-induced vascular response in HS-fed eNOS(+/+) and eNOS(-/-) mice The modulation of vascular response by HS was examined using aortas from mice (eNOS(+/+) and eNOS(-/-)) fed 4% (HS) or 0.45% (NS) NaCl-diet through acetylcholine (ACh), NECA (adenosine-analog), CGS 21680 (A(2A) AR-agonist), MS-PPOH (CYP epoxygenase-blocker; 10(-5) M), AUDA (sEH-blocker; 10(-5) M), and DDMS (CYP4A-blocker; 10(-5) M). ACh-response was greater in HS-eNOS(+/+) (+59.3 ± 6.3%) versus NS-eNOS(+/+) (+33.3 ± 8.0%; P &lt; 0.05). However, there was no response in both HS-eNOS(-/-) and NS-eNOS(-/-). NECA-response was greater in HS-eNOS(-/-) (+37.4 ± 3.2%) versus NS-eNOS(-/-) (+7.4.0 ± 3.8%; P &lt; 0.05). CGS 21680-response was also greater in HS-eNOS(-/-) (+45.4 ± 5.2%) versus NS-eNOS(-/-)(+5.1 ± 5.0%; P &lt; 0.05). In HS-eNOS(-/-), the CGS 21680-response was reduced by MS-PPOH (+7.3 ± 3.2%; P &lt; 0.05). In NS-eNOS(-/-), the CGS 21680-response was increased by AUDA (+38.2 ± 3.3%; P &lt; 0.05) and DDMS (+30.1 ± 4.1%; P &lt; 0.05). Compared to NS, HS increased CYP2J2 in eNOS(+/+) (35%; P &lt; 0.05) and eNOS(-/-) (61%; P &lt; 0.05), but decreased sEH in eNOS(+/+) (74%; P &lt; 0.05) and eNOS(-/-) (40%; P &lt; 0.05). Similarly, CYP4A decreased in HS-eNOS(+/+) (35%; P &lt; 0.05) and HS-eNOS(-/-) (34%; P &lt; 0.05). These data suggest that NS causes reduced-vasodilation in both eNOS(+/+) and eNOS(-/-) via sEH and CYP4A. However, HS triggers possible A(2A)AR-induced relaxation through CYP epoxygenase in both eNOS(+/+) and eNOS(-/-).

Salt modulates vascular response through adenosine A2A receptor in eNOS-null mice: role of CYP450 epoxygenase and soluble epoxide hydrolase
