Vasodilating actions of 2-nicotinamidoethyl nitrate on porcine and guinea-pig coronary arteries.
K Furukawa,Toshiyuki Itoh,Makoto Kajiwara,Kenji Kitamura,Hiroshi Suzuki,Yushi Ito,Hirosi Kuriyama +6 more
TL;DR: Effects of 2-nicotinamidoethyl nitrate on smooth muscle cells of porcine and guinea-pig coronary arteries were investigated by the microelectrode and double sucrose-gap methods and from isometric contractions and suppression of the mechanical response is postulated to be mainly due to hyperpolarization of the membrane.

BKCa and KV channels limit conducted vasomotor responses in rat mesenteric terminal arterioles
Bjørn Olav Hald,Jens Christian Brings Jacobsen,Thomas Hartig Braunstein,Ryuji Inoue,Yushi Ito,Preben Graae Sørensen,Niels-Henrik Holstein-Rathlou,Lars Juhl Jensen +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that inhibition of voltage-activated K+ channels enhance vascular-conducted responses to local depolarization in terminal arterioles by increasing the membrane resistance of VSMCs.

Dual Modulation of Airway Smooth Muscle Contraction by Th2 Cytokines via Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 Production
TL;DR: Th2 cytokines modulate airway contraction without affecting cellular contractility but by secreting MMP-1 from the SM cells via PI3K activation and changing cell-to-matrix interactions is indicated.

Protein kinase A inhibits lysophosphatidic acid-induced migration of airway smooth muscle cells
TL;DR: Results indicate that LPA induces cAMP/PKA-sensitive, RhoA-mediated random migration of BTSMCs, and Regulation of this mechanism would be beneficial for the control of airway remodeling.

Differential Effects of Divalent Cations on Spontaneous and Evoked Glycine Release From Spinal Interneurons
Megumi Maeda,Eiichiro Tanaka,Kiyomitsu Shoudai,Kiku Nonaka,Nobuki Murayama,Yushi Ito,Norio Akaike +6 more
TL;DR: The results show that these divalent cations affect mIPSC and eIPSCs differently and indicate that the mechanisms underlying transmitter release that generates e IPSCs and m IPSC in presynaptic nerve terminals are different.
