摘要: UrotensinII最早是从鱼尾部下垂体中分离出的神经环肽,随后在一种欧洲绿蛙Ranaridibunda的脑中鉴别出来和从人体基因组中克隆出来。人Uro-tensinII(humanurotensinII,hUII)有11个氨基酸残基组成,主要分布于心血管和神经系统。作为UT受体的一种内源性配体,hUII有广泛的生物学效应,如收缩和舒张血管,促进心肌细胞增殖,调节心功能,并在冠心病、心功能衰竭等某些心血管疾病的病理过程中起着重要的作用。本文就hUII在心血管系统方面的生物学效应作一简要的综述。

Abstract: Urotensin II(U-II),a cyclic peptide has been initially identified as a neuropeptide of teleost fish.Subsequently,U-II has been characterized in the brain of the Europeangreen frog and has also been cloned from the human genome.Human U-II(human U-II,hU-II),composed of 11 amino acid residues is rich in cardiovas-cularand nervous system.As an endogenous ligand forUT receptor,hU-II exerts a broad spectrum of biological actions,such as vasoconstriction and vasorelaxation,fa-cilitating proliferation of cardiac cells,regulating the car-diac function and playing an important role in pathogene-sis of some cardiovasculardiseases such as coronary heart disease and cardiac failure.The effects of hU-II on card-iovascularsystem were briefly reviewed as follows.
