Nitric oxide in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury
Abstract
Administration of nitric oxide (NO), NO donors or drugs that enhance NO release (statins, calcium antagonists, ACE-inhibitors, dexamethasone) prior to ischemia protects the myocardium against ischemia/reperfusion injury. While this exogenous administration of NO prior to ischemia can initiate a preconditioning-like phenomenon, endogenous NO-synthase (NOS)-derived NO is not involved in triggering or mediating the early phase of ischemic preconditioning's protection, but does play a pivotal role for initiating and mediating the delayed phase of ischemic preconditioning's protection. The present review now summarizes the importance of endogenous and exogenous NO when given at the time of reperfusion for vascular and myocardial function and morphological outcome following ischemia/reperfusion. Given the inconsistency of the published data, potential confounding factors that might affect experimental results on the role of NO in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion were identified, such as (1) the lack of characterization of the involved NOS isoforms in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury in different animal species, (2) the lack of direct measurements of myocardial NO concentration and/or NOS activity to assure sufficient NOS inhibition, (3) the lack of consideration of nonenzymatic NO production as a potential source of NO, and (4) the absence of plasma or blood components in in vitro studies influencing NO delivery and metabolism. Future research on the importance of NO in ischemia/reperfusion injury will have to focus more precisely on the identification and standardization of potential confounding experimental factors that influence synthesis, transport, and interaction of NO with various targets in blood and tissue.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
