The influence of diabetes on regulatory mechanisms and specific receptors implicated in the response of isolated rabbit renal artery to endothelin-1 was examined. Endothelin-1 induced a concentration-dependent contraction that was less potent in arteries from diabetic rabbits than in arteries from control rabbits. Endothelium removal or NG-nitro-L-arginine (L-NOARG) enhanced contractions to endothelin-1 either in control and diabetic arteries. Indomethacin inhibited endothelin-1-induced response in control arteries, but enhanced it in diabetic arteries. In contrast to that observed in rubbed and in L-NOARG treated arteries, in the presence of indomethacin the contractile action of endothelin-1 was higher in diabetic arteries than in control arteries. Nimesulide enhanced endothelin-1 contractions both in control and diabetic arteries. Cyclo-(D-Asp-Pro-DVal-Leu-D-Trp) (BQ-123, endothelin ETA receptor antagonist), attenuated endothelin-1 vasoconstriction in control rabbits, while vasoconstriction resulted increased in diabetic rabbits. 2,6-Dimethylpiperidinecarbonyl-γ-Methyl-Leu-Nin-(Methoxycarbonyl)-D-Trp-D-Nle (BQ-788, endothelin ETB receptor antagonist), enhanced the contractile response in control rabbit arteries without modifying this response in diabetic rabbits. In summary, diabetes decreases the sensitivity of the rabbit renal artery to endothelin-1 by decreasing the ratio between vasoconstrictor and vasodilator prostanoids released after activation of endothelin ETA receptors.
