Background

S1P (sphingosine-1-phosphate) has been reported to possess vasodilatory properties, but the underlying pathways are largely unknown.

Methods

Isolated mouse mesenteric artery and endothelial cell models were used to determine S1P-induced vasodilation, intracellular calcium, membrane potentials, and calcium-activated potassium channels (KCa2.3 and KCa3.1 [endothelial small- and intermediate-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels]). Effect of deletion of endothelial S1PR1 (type 1 S1P receptor) on vasodilation and blood pressure was evaluated.

Results

Mesenteric arteries subjected to acute S1P stimulation displayed a dose-dependent vasodilation response, which was attenuated by blocking endothelial KCa2.3 or KCa3.1 channels. In cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells, S1P stimulated immediate membrane potential hyperpolarization following activation of KCa2.3/KCa3.1 with elevated cytosolic Ca2+. Further, chronic S1P stimulation enhanced expression of KCa2.3 and KCa3.1 in human umbilical vein endothelial cells in dose- and time-dependent manners, which was abolished by disrupting either S1PR1-Ca2+ signaling or downstream Ca2+-activated calcineurin/NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T-cells) signaling. By combination of bioinformatics-based binding site prediction and chromatin immunoprecipitation assay, we revealed in human umbilical vein endothelial cells that chronic activation of S1P/S1PR1 promoted NFATc2 nuclear translocation and binding to promoter regions of KCa2.3 and KCa3.1 genes thus to upregulate transcription of these channels. Deletion of endothelial S1PR1 reduced expression of KCa2.3 and KCa3.1 in mesenteric arteries and exacerbated hypertension in mice with angiotensin II infusion.

Conclusions

This study provides evidence for the mechanistic role of KCa2.3/KCa3.1-activated endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization in vasodilation and blood pressure homeostasis in response to S1P. This mechanistic demonstration would facilitate the development of new therapies for cardiovascular diseases associated with hypertension."xsd:string
