الوصف: Vasoconstriction to stimulation of postsynaptic alpha1- and alpha2-adrenoceptors involves different mechanisms of Ca2+ mobilization. Alpha2-adrenoceptor-mediated vasoconstriction in vivo as well as in vitro is invariably and effectively antagonized by Ca2+ channel blockers, such as nifedipine or verapamil, and is therefore primarily carried by influx of extracellular Ca2+. On the other hand, alpha1-adrenoceptor stimulation has been linked to both influx of extracellular Ca2+ and release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. The sensitivity of alpha1-adrenoceptor-mediated vasoconstriction to blockade by Ca2+ channel antagonists depends on how much both mechanisms of Ca2+ mobilization contribute to the contraction process, and varies between vascular tissues and alpha1 -adrenoceptor agonists. The experimental evidence for the differential utilization of Ca2+ in vasoconstriction to alpha1- and alpha2-adrenoceptor stimulation is reviewed.
