    Abstract New findings: What is the central question of this study? Does cutaneous sensory nerve-mediated vasodilatation differ between non-Hispanic Black and White young adults? What is the main finding and its importance? The magnitude of cutaneous reactive hyperaemia is lower in non-Hispanic Black relative to non-Hispanic White young adults, but the overall sensory nerve contribution is the same, suggesting that sensory nerve function is similar in both non-Hispanic Black and White young adults.
    Abstract: The aim of this study was to assess cutaneous sensory nerve function, independent of nitric oxide, in non-Hispanic Black and White young adults. We tested the hypothesis that cutaneous reactive hyperaemia and sensory nerve-mediated vasodilatation would be lower in non-Hispanic Black young adults relative to non-Hispanic White young adults. Twenty-four participants who self-identified as non-Hispanic Black (n = 12) or non-Hispanic White (n = 12) were recruited. All participants underwent three bouts of reactive hyperaemia. An index of skin blood flow was measured continuously using laser-Doppler flowmetry at a control site and at a site treated with topical 4% lignocaine to inhibit sensory nerve function. Peak reactive hyperaemia was lower in non-Hispanic Black relative to non-Hispanic White participants (P < 0.001). Total reactive hyperaemia was lower in non-Hispanic Black [mean (SD); control, 4085 (955)%CVC

    Abstract We assessed the combined effect of superoxide and iNOS inhibition on microvascular function in non-Hispanic Black and non-Hispanic White participants (n = 15 per group). Participants were instrumented with four microdialysis fibers: (1) lactated Ringer's (control), (2) 10 μM tempol (superoxide inhibition), (3) 0.1 mM 1400 W (iNOS inhibition), (4) tempol + 1400 W. Cutaneous vasodilation was induced via local heating and NO-dependent vasodilation was quantified. At control sites, NO-dependent vasodilation was lower in non-Hispanic Black (45 ± 9% NO) relative to non-Hispanic White (79 ± 9% NO; p < 0.01; effect size, d = 3.78) participants. Tempol (62 ± 16% NO), 1400 W (78 ± 12% NO) and tempol +1400 W (80 ± 13% NO) increased NO-dependent vasodilation in non-Hispanic Black participants relative to control sites (all p < 0.01; d = 1.22, 3.05, 3.03, respectively). The effect of 1400 W (p = 0.04, d = 1.11) and tempol +1400 W (p = 0.03, d = 1.22) was greater than tempol in non-Hispanic Black participants. There was no difference between non-Hispanic Black and non-Hispanic White participants at 1400 W or tempol + 1400 W sites. These data suggest iNOS has a greater effect on NO-dependent vasodilation than superoxide in non-Hispanic Black participants.

    Abstract Human endothelial cells are routinely utilized in cardiovascular research to provide a translational foundation for understanding how the vascular endothelium functions in vivo. However, little attention has been given to whether there are sex specific responses in vitro. Similarly, it is unclear whether endothelial cells derived from distinct tissues behave in a homogenous manner. Herein, we demonstrate that marked sex differences exist within, and between, commonly utilized human primary endothelial cells from healthy donors, with respect to redox status, nitric oxide synthesis, and associated proteins that can mediate their expression. Further, we demonstrate that endothelial cells respond uniquely to inflammatory insult in a sex- and tissue origin-dependent manner. Our findings suggest sex and tissue derivation may need to be considered when studying endothelial cells in vitro as cells derived from distinct tissue and sexes may not behave interchangeably.
