Dose-Dependent Regulation of NAD(P)H Oxidase Expression by Angiotensin II in Human Endothelial Cells: Protective Effect of Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blockade in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

Abstract

Objective— Angiotensin II (Ang II)–mediated induction of vascular superoxide anion formation could contribute to the development of endothelial dysfunction, hypertension, and atherosclerosis. An NAD(P)H oxidase has been identified as a major endothelial source of superoxide anions. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the regulation of NAD(P)H oxidase activity in response to Ang II is not well understood. Methods and Results— We investigated the dose-dependent regulation of superoxide anion formation and of NAD(P)H oxidase subunit expression in response to Ang II in human endothelial cells. Ang II regulates superoxide anion formation and the limiting subunit of endothelial NAD(P)H oxidase, gp91-phox, in a dose-dependent manner via Ang II type 1 (AT 1 ) receptor–mediated induction and Ang II type 2 receptor–mediated partial inhibition at higher Ang II concentrations. Furthermore, AT 1 receptor blocker therapy before coronary bypass surgery downregulates the gp91-phox expression in internal mammary artery biopsies of patients with coronary artery disease. Conclusions— Our data support a dose-dependent induction of proatherosclerotic oxidative stress in human endothelial cells in response to Ang II. The expression of NAD(P)H oxidase subunit gp91-phox is critical for endothelial superoxide anion formation. AT 1 receptor blockade has an antiatherosclerotic and antioxidative potential by the reduction of oxidative stress in the vessel wall.

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.
