Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction: redox events in oxygen sensing

Waypa, Gregory B., Schumacker, Paul T.·2005·Journal of Applied Physiology

Abstract

Recently, the mitochondria have become the focus of attention as the site of O 2 sensing underlying hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV). However, two disparate models have emerged to explain how mitochondria react to a decrease in Po 2. One model proposes that a drop in Po 2 decreases the rate of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, resulting in a decrease in oxidant stress and an accumulation of reducing equivalents. The resulting shift of the cytosol to a reduced state causes the inhibition of voltage-dependent potassium channels, membrane depolarization, and the influx of calcium through voltage-gated (L-type) calcium channels. A second and opposing model suggests that hypoxia triggers a paradoxical increase in a mitochondrial-induced ROS signal. The resulting shift of the cytosol to an oxidized state triggers the release of intracellular calcium stores, recruitment of calcium channels in the plasma membrane, and activation of contraction. This article summarizes the potential involvement of a mitochondria-induced ROS signal in these two very different models.

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.
