We hypothesized that increased pulmonary vascular pressure--one of the characteristics of congestive heart failure--directly regulates pulmonary endothelial vasoconstrictors (endothelin-1, urotensin II) and vasodilators (adrenomedullin, relaxin). To this end, we subjected pulmonary artery endothelial cells in a novel flow-chamber model to different shear stresses (17, 29, and 46 dyn/cm(2)) at low and elevated levels of downstream pressure (10 and 30 mm Hg). Application of elevated pressure over 16 h increased gene expression and peptide secretion of endothelin-1 at all shear levels, whereas secretion of adrenomedullin rose via decreased expression of its clearance receptor. In contrast, preprourotensin II mRNA and urotensin II peptide decreased in response to elevated pressure, and relaxin remained unaffected. This is the first study to identify pressure as key regulator of mediator synthesis by pulmonary vascular endothelium. Pressure-induced mediator regulation may represent an early event in the development of secondary pulmonary hypertension.
