Abstract

Background— Oxidant stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of atherothrombosis and other vascular disorders accompanied by endothelial dysfunction. Glutathione peroxidases (GPx) play an important role in the cellular defense against oxidant stress by utilizing glutathione (GSH) to reduce lipid hydroperoxides and hydrogen peroxide to their corresponding alcohols. Cellular GPx (GPx-1) is the principal intracellular isoform of GPx. We hypothesized that GPx-1 deficiency per se induces endothelial dysfunction and structural vascular abnormalities through increased oxidant stress. Methods and Results— A murine model of heterozygous deficiency of GPx-1 (GPx +/−) was investigated to examine this hypothesis. Mesenteric arterioles in GPx-1 +/− mice demonstrated vasoconstriction to acetylcholine compared with vasodilation in wild-type mice (maximal change in vessel diameter, −13.0±2.8% versus 13.2±2.8%, P <0.0001). We also noted an increase in the plasma and aortic levels of the isoprostane iPF 2α -III, a marker of oxidant stress, in GPx-1 +/− mice compared with wild-type mice (170.4±23 pg/mL plasma versus 98.7±7.1 pg/mL plasma, P <0.03; 11.7±0.87 pg/mg aortic tissue versus 8.2±0.55 pg/mg aortic tissue, P <0.01). Histological sections from the coronary vasculature of GPx-1 +/− mice show increased perivascular matrix deposition, an increase in the number of adventitial fibroblasts, and intimal thickening. These structural abnormalities in the myocardial vasculature were accompanied by diastolic dysfunction after ischemia-reperfusion. Conclusions— These findings demonstrate that heterozygous deficiency of GPx-1 leads to endothelial dysfunction, possibly associated with increased oxidant stress, and to significant structural vascular and cardiac abnormalities. These data illustrate the importance of this key antioxidant enzyme in functional and structural responses of the mammalian cardiovascular system.

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.
