2 INTRODUCTION Microvascularture: Blood vessels < 150 µm Longitudinally arranged single layer of ECs surrounded by perpendicular arrangement of one or many layers of SMCs Role of Microcirculation: Regulate blood flow Tissue perfusion Regulates blood pressure and responses to inflammation Microcirculation EC SMC 2
3 SIGNIFICANCE High blood pressure: 1 in 3 adults in US. [1] Almost 3 of 4 patients that experience their first heart attack or stroke are hypertensive. [1] Peripheral vascular resistance is increased in virtually all models of hypertension and altered arteriolar tone can affect renal function and the ability of the kidneys to regulate blood pressure. [2] [3] 3
4 GOAL Complex mechanisms at the molecular, cellular levels participate in the regulation of vascular resistance and hence the vessel tone. Develop theoretical models to better understand mechanisms modulating 2+ and V m dynamics that regulate vascular resistance, blood flow and pressure in health and in hypertension In particular: Quantification and role localized 2+ signals via TRPV4 channels and localized NO signaling in vessel tone modulation rdiac Output Blood Pressure SMC Membrane Voltage Total Peripheral Resistance Diameters of Small Arteries Constriction/Re laxation of SMC s SMC Cytosolic 2+ 4

12 SUMMARY The developed models serves as a tool for assisting investigations on the regulation of vascular tone in health and disease, and development of rationale therapeutic strategies for disease like hypertension. Allows quantification and better understanding of 2+ dynamics regulation. Activation of single TRPV4 channel can result in few mm peak 2+ concentrations locally which may result in 8-10 mv hyperpolarization of SMC and vessel relaxation. Localization of enos in the vicinity of MP may result in NO mediated feedback during SMC stimulation (i.e. PE, NE) Modulation of NO biovailability by Hbα is enhanced by the colocalization in the MP RBC perfusion will decrease the ability of Hbα to modulate NO levels and μm levels of EC Hbα are required for a significant modulation of SMC NO availability 1.
