title: Stimulation of Na(+)-H+ exchange, the Na(+)-K+ pump and Na+,K+,Cl- cotransport by endothelin-1 in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells.
abstract: Endothelin-1 concentrations higher than 10(-10) mol/l were able to strongly stimulate Na(+)-H+ exchange, the Na(+)-K+ pump and the Na+,K+Cl- cotransport system in A10 vascular smooth muscle cells. The stimulation of Na(+)-H+ exchange was more marked in fresh than in H(+)-loaded cells, suggesting an increase in the apparent affinity for internal H+. Pump stimulation appeared to be secondary to sodium entry through Na(+)-H+ exchange because it was absent in (1) Na(+)-loaded cells and (2) in the presence of ethyl-isopropylamiloride (EIPA). Stimulation of cotransport was blocked by indomethacin, suggesting the involvement of a cyclo-oxygenase product. In conclusion, the action of endothelin-1 in vascular smooth muscle induces the onset of negative feedback mechanisms which enhance the ability of the vascular cells to regulate disturbances in Na+,K+ and Cl- contents.
