Abstract

It was shown in acute experiments on laboratory rats that intraportalinjectionof hydrogen sulfide's precursor L-cysteine (15 mg/kg)caused dilatation of the intrahepatic vessels. As a result, systemic blood pressure (SBP) and blood pressure in the portal vein (PVP) significantly decreased on 17,6 and 24,5%, respectively, and the rate of local blood flow in the liver (LF) and its blood filling (BF) increased on 28,2 and 24,4% respectively. Application of hydrogen sulfide donor NaHS (7 mg/kg) resulted in similarly directed changes: SBP and PVP decreased on 20,8% i 26,2% respectively,LF and BF increased on 16,4% and 30,9% respectively. Application of L-cysteine in the conditions of tsystationin-gamma-lyase blockade by LD-proparhilhlitsyn led to an increase in SBP on 20,4 % and PVP on 26,6% and a decrease of BF on 21,5% and LF in the liver on 11,7% comparing with baseline values of these parameters. So, blockade of tsystationin-gamma-lyase not only completely removed the effects of L-cysteine, but also inhibited synthesis of H2S from its endogenous predecessors,which led to vasoconstriction of liver's blood vessels and, consequently, to an increase of blood pressure and a decrease of liver blood flow rat's and volume of blood deposited in liver.
