RELAXATION VASODILATION Endothelium-dependent REGULATION OF BLOOD PRESSURE PKA G proteins How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver GPCR-associated signaling GPCR-associated signaling Blood Pressure is tightly controlled by several signaling systems. Many of them involve regulation of cell functions through G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). This slide shows a Gq protein-associated pathway involved in the regulation of cytosolic Ca2+. How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver G proteins: peripheral membrane proteins G proteins propagate messages from membrane receptors to effectors that control cytosolic levels of second messengers (cAMP, cGMP, IP3, DAG, ions, etc.).
Lipid-protein interactions regulate the localization and activity of G proteins and, therefore, cell signaling. G PROTEIN-COUPLED RECEPTORS (GPCRs) INVOLVED IN THE REGULATION OF BP CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM : ADRENOCEPTORS α 2A α2B

P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver C-terminal region of Gg: Main player in G protein-lipid interactions.
Membrane lipids affect G protein structure and vice versa. How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver A new model of G protein activity based on their interactions with lipids Two views of the same process. From the membrane (above) or from the cytosol (right): receptors (R) are activated by agonists (a or AG) in hexagonal phase-prone regions (H), which are loaded with G proteins (G) thanks to Gbg. Upon activation, Ga goes to lamellar-prone regions (L) to regulate the activity of effectors (E, E1). Gg protein-membrane interactions How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V.

How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver Acute effects of VOO, TO, and OA on systolic BP How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver Normotensive rats V, vehicle; VOO, virgin olive oil; TO, triolein; OA, oleic acid Olive oil also induces short-term reductions of BP. Triolein and oleic acid have similar effects Chronic effects of OA, elaidic acid and stearic acid on systolic BP How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver Normotensive rats V, vehicle; OA, oleic acid; EA, elaidic acid; SA, stearic acid Oleic acid, but not elaidic and stearic acids, induces BP reductions. Oleic acid is the fatty acid present in triolein and the main component of olive oil (70-80%). Effects of VOO treatment on BP in SHRs How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver Hypertensive rats Olive oil and oleic acid (OA) reduce BP in hypertensive animals. Elaidic acid (EA) and stearic acid (SA) failed to reduce BP. Effects of VOO, TO, and OA treatments on total G protein αi2, αi3 and αq/11 subunits and PKCβ1 levels in aorta How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver Olive oil, triolein and oleic acid regulate Gi and Gq protein levels and those of downstream effectors, such as phospholipase C (PLC). V, vehicle; VOO, virgin olive oil; TO, triolein; OA, oleic acid Correlations between BP reductions (mmHg) and decrease of L-to-HII phase transition temperature (°C; A) or the dose of cis-MUFA (g/kg) administered to animals (B) How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver Treatments: 1, VOO; 2, 2-hydroxyoleic acid; 3, TO; 4; OA; 5, stearic acid; 6; vehicle; 7, elaidic acid; 8, soybean oil. Decrease of BP correlates with the dose of cis-monounsaturated fatty acids (cis-MUFA). Fatty acids, rather than triacylglycerides, are involved in this effect. Consequences for human health Consumption of fats that contain cis-monounsaturated fatty acids (e.g., oleic acid) have positive effects on cardiovascular health, compared with saturated or trans-MUFA fats.
Because this effect has structural molecular bases, we can design molecules to regulate BP or reverse other pathological processes. How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver Then, I can control cell functions by regulating membrane lipid structure and composition!!! Sure. You may even design nutritional or pharmaceutical approaches to treat human pathologies!!! Chronic effects of soybean oil, VOO, or TO treatments on systolic BP How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver Normotensive rats V, vehicle; SO, soy oil; VOO, virgin olive oil; TO, triolein Olive oil, but not soy oil, reduces blood pressure. Triolein, the main triacylglyceride in olive oil reproduces this effect.
VOO is the oil obtained from olives by pressure at room temperature. OLEIC ACID ANALOGUES FOR TREATMENT OF BLOOD PRESSURE OLEIC ACID ANALOGUES FOR TREATMENT OF BLOOD PRESSURE How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver Rational design of 2-hydroxyoleic acid Rational design of 2-hydroxyoleic acid 2-Hydroxyoleic acid (left) is an oleic acid (center) analog that keeps most structural properties of oleic acid and differs from elaidic acid (pink) in its interaction with membranes (right). Effects of 2-hydroxyoleic acid (2-OHOA) treatment (600 mg/kg every 12 h) on blood pressure (BP) and heart rate in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) and Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure.

Halver WKY veh WKY 2OHOA SHR veh SHR 2OHOA 0 2 4 6 8 ** cGMP levels in aorta (pmol ·mg -1 protein) cGMP is not involved in the effects of 2-hydroxyoleic acid The levels of cGMP in normotensive (WKY) and hypertensive (SHR) rats were unrelated to 2-hydroxyoleic acid effects on BP 2-Hydoxyoleic acid on Gi proteins Serum w/o
PDGF Serum with PDGF Gi3 actin Gi3 actin 48 h BASAL 10%FBS OH50 OH100 PDGF How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver 2-Hydroxyoleic acid induces reduced expression of G protein.
This effect is PDGF-independent. Effects of 2-hydroxyoleic acid treatment (600 mg/kg every 12 h) for 7 days on protein kinase A (PKA) subunit levels in aortas from SHRs and WKY rats How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver 2-Hydroxyoleic acid regulates the expression of some PKA subunits Effects of 2-hydroxyoleic acid treatment (600 mg/kg every 12 h) for 7 days on adenylyl cyclase (AC) activities in SHRs and WKY rat aortas How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver 2-Hydroxyoleic acid treatments induce restoration of Adenyly cyclase activity
in rat aorta. Adenyly cyclase produces cAMP, which in turn regulates PKA. Effects of 2-OHOA treatment (600 mg/kg every 12 h) for 7 days on PKA activity in aortas from SHRs and WKY rats How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver 2-Hydroxyoleic acid treatments induce restoration of PKA activity in aorta of
hypertensive rats and do not change PKA activity in normotensive rats. How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver b-Adrenoceptor signaling pathway Epinephrine activates b-adrenoceptors, which in turn activate a Gs protein. Gs proteins activate adenylyl cyclase, that produce cAMP and activate PKA. Effects of acute administration of the PKA inhibitor 8-bromo adenosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphorothioate, Rp isomer (Rp-8-Br-cAMP), on systolic BP in vehicle-treated (control) and 2-OHOA-treated SHRs How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver The use of a specific PKA inhibitor in rats treated with 2-hydroxyoleic acid reversed the hypotensive effect of this drug. This result demonstrates that the proposed mechanism of the hypotensive effects of 2-hydroxyoleic acid (via Gs protein, adenyly cyclase and PKA) operates in vivo.
In normotensive animals (treated and untreated) and hypertensive rats not treated with 2-hydroxyoleic acid, no blood pressure reductions were observed (data not shown), indicating that the effect cannot be attributed to the PKA inhibitor itself.
In addition, this effect was time- and concentration-dependent. Effects of withdrawal of 2-OHOA on systolic BP and aortic PKA subunit levels in SHRs How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver After treatments with 2-hydroxyoleic acid, blood pressure started to rise to reach their initial high values about two weeks after the administration of the last dose. This slow recovery of blood pressure indicates that the modification induced by the fatty acid occurs on membrane lipids, whose turnover is slower. Effects of 2-OHOA treatment (600 mg/kg every 12 h) for 7 days on Rho kinase II levels in aortas from SHRs and WKY rats How Oleic Acid in olive oil reduces blood pressure. P.V. Escribá & J.E. Halver Rho kinase also appeared to be markedly increased in hypertensive rats. Treatment with 2-OHOA reduced the expression of this protein to normal levels. This result indicates that besides PKA, vascular cell’s cytoskeleton is also regulated by this compound. CONCLUSION The CIS structure of Oleic Acid fits neatly into the phospholipid structure of biomembranes, and alters receptor sites on the membrane surface, to regulate blood pressure. Q.E.D.
