- W1964861423 abstract "Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a major risk factor for erectile dysfunction in both patients and animal models. The pathogenesis of this dysfunction has not been fully elucidated. However, alterations in the synthesis of a number of vasoactive compounds, such as nitric oxide (NO) and prostacyclin (PGI2), have been reported in various diabetic tissues. The interaction between NO, PGI2 and endothelin-1 (ET-1), a powerful vasoconstrictor and smooth muscle cell mitogen, is thought to be important in maintaining vascular tone and the erectile process. We investigated the density and distribution of ET-1 and endothelin receptor subtypes in cavernosal tissue and assessed any changes brought about by DM in a rabbit model.DM was induced in New Zealand White rabbits using alloxan. Penises were excised from the diabetic rabbits three months (n = 6) and six months (n = 6) after the induction of DM. Low and high resolution autoradiography was performed using radioligands for ET-1, endothelin A (ETA) and endothelin B (ETB) receptors and were analyzed densitometrically. The results were compared with those from six age-matched healthy control rabbits for each group. Immunohistochemical localization of ET-1 immunoreactivity was also performed, together with ultrastructural evaluation of the corpus cavernosum.ET-1, ETA and ETB receptor binding sites were primarily localized to the smooth muscle cells of the corpus cavernosum and the endothelium lining the cavernosal spaces. A significant increase in ETB receptor binding sites was found only in cavernosal tissue six months after induction of DM, when compared with age-matched healthy controls. These receptor changes were accompanied by ultrastructural changes in the corpus cavernosum indicative of an early, atherosclerosis-like process.The autoradiographic and immunohistochemical findings in this study suggest that ET-1 may have a role in the pathophysiology of diabetic ED. This peptide may be released in an autocrine fashion causing cavernosal smooth muscle cell (CSMC) contraction and/or proliferation." @default.
