Mechanisms of Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase–Mediated Vascular Dysfunction
Abstract
Objective— Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is expressed in arteries during inflammation and may contribute to vascular dysfunction. Effects of gene transfer of iNOS to carotid arteries were examined in vitro in the absence of systemic inflammation to allow examination of mechanisms by which iNOS impairs contraction and relaxation. Methods and Results— After gene transfer of iNOS with an adenovirus (AdiNOS), constrictor responses to phenylephrine (PE) and U46619 were impaired. After AdiNOS, inhibition of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) with 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo-[4,3,2]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ) reduced the EC 50 for PE from 4.33±0.78 μmol/L to 1.15±0.43 μmol/L (mean±SEM). These results imply that iNOS impairs contraction by activation of the NO/cGMP pathway. Relaxation to acetylcholine (ACh) also was impaired after AdiNOS. Sepiapterin (300 μmol/L), the precursor for tetrahydrobiopterin (BH 4 ), improved relaxation to Ach. Because BH 4 is an essential cofactor for production of NO by both iNOS and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), these results suggest that iNOS may reduce production of NO by eNOS by limiting availability of BH 4 . Next, we examined effects of expression of iNOS in endothelium and adventitia. Selective expression of iNOS in endothelium, but not adventitia, impaired contraction to phenylephrine and relaxation to acetylcholine. Conclusions— We conclude that: (1) iNOS may impair contraction in part by activation of sGC; (2) iNOS impairs relaxation, at least in part, by limiting availability of BH 4 ; and (3) expression of iNOS in endothelium may be a more important mediator of vascular dysfunction than expression of iNOS in adventitia.

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.
