PG - 143-152 LID - S0014-2999(17)30033-X [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.ejphar.2017.01.023 [doi] AB - The immunosuppressant drug cyclosporine A (CSA) improves survivability in endotoxemia and offsets associated loss in vascular reactivity and hypotension. We tested the hypothesis that central phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)/soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC)/mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) cascade modulates the CSA counteraction of endotoxic hypotension and cardiac autonomic dysfunction. The effects of pharmacologic inhibition of these molecular substrates in central pools on CSA interaction with cardiovascular responses evoked by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were evaluated in conscious rats. CSA (10mg/kg) reversed the LPS-evoked (i) hypotension and tachycardia, (ii) decreases in time and spectral measures of heart rate variability (HRV), and (iii) increases in serum TNFalpha and IL-6. These CSA effects disappeared after intracisternal (i.c.) administration of ODQ (sGC inhibitor) but not wortmannin (PI3K inhibitor). When used alone, ODQ or wortmannin abolished the LPS-evoked hypotension and tachycardia, but had no effect on the concomitant reductions in HRV. We also report that the reversal by CSA of LPS hypotension disappeared after treatment with i.c SB203580 (MAPK(p38) inhibitor) or PD98059 (MAPK(ERK) inhibitor), in contrast to little effect for SP600125 (MAPK(JNK) inhibitor). Alternatively, the CSA amelioration of LPS-evoked reductions in HRV was abolished in presence of SP600125 or PD98059, but not SB203580. The single exposure to SP600125 reduced the decreases in blood pressure, but not HRV, caused by LPS whereas SB203580 produced the exact opposite effects. Together, while central sGC/MAPKs circuits modulate the CSA counteraction of endotoxic manifestations, the recruitment of individual MAPKs into this interaction depends on the nature of the cardiovascular response.
