Atheroprotective Effects of Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase in Apolipoprotein E Knockout Mice
Open accessAbstract
Objective— All 3 isoforms of the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) are expressed in atherosclerotic lesions. To test whether neuronal NOS (nNOS) deficiency affects atherosclerosis, we studied apoE/nNOSα double knockout (DKO) and apolipoprotein E (apoE) knockout (KO) control mice. Methods and Results— Lesion area was significantly increased in male DKO (66%) mice after 14 weeks and in female DKO animals (31%) after 24 weeks of “western” diet. Moreover, mean arterial blood pressure was significantly reduced in female DKO animals. Immunohistochemistry revealed nNOS expression in the neointima of KO mice. In DKO animals, residual nNOS staining was caused by the presence of nNOS splice variants. Whereas nNOSα was present in vessels of KO and absent in DKO animals, nNOSγ was expressed in KO and DKO mice. Conclusion— nNOSα protects against atherosclerosis as nNOSα deletion leads to an increase in plaque formation in apoE/nNOSα DKO mice. Female DKO mice showed a significant reduction in mean arterial blood pressure. Additionally, we found expression of nNOS splice variants in vessels of apoE KO mice. Our data highlights nNOSα overexpression as a potential therapeutic strategy and naturally occurring splice variants that lack exon 2 of the nNOS gene as a potential risk factor for vascular disease.

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.
