Abstract | Clinical use of prostaglandin synthase-inhibiting NSAIDs is associated with the development of hypertension; however, the cardiovascular effects of antagonists for individual prostaglandin receptors remain uncharacterized. The present studies were aimed at elucidating the role of prostaglandin E-2 (PGE(2)) E-prostanoid receptor subtype 1(EP1) in regulating blood pressure. Oral administration of the EP1 receptor antagonist SC51322 reduced blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats. To define whether this antihypertensive effect was caused by EP1 receptor inhibition, an EP1-null mouse was generated using a "hit-and-run" strategy that disrupted the gene encoding EP1 but spared expression of protein kinase N (PKN) encoded at the EP1 locus on the antiparallel DNA strand. Selective genetic disruption of the EP1 receptor blunted the acute pressor response to Ang II and reduced chronic Ang II-driven hypertension. SC51322 blunted the constricting effect of Ang II on in vitro-perfused preglomerular renal arterioles and mesenteric arteriolar rings. Similarly, the pressor response to EP1-selective agonists sulprostone, and 17-phenyltrinor PGE(2) were blunted by SC51322 EP1-null mice. These data support the possibility of targeting the EPI receptor for antihypertensive therapy. |
