Abstract

We aimed to elucidate the possible role of phenotypic alterations and oxidative stress in age-related endothelial dysfunction of coronary arterioles. Arterioles were isolated from the hearts of young adult (Y, 14 weeks) and aged (A, 80 weeks) male Sprague-Dawley rats. For videomicroscopy, pressure-induced tone of Y and A arterioles and their passive diameter did not differ significantly. In A, arterioles L-NAME (a NO synthase blocker)–sensitive flow-induced dilations were significantly impaired (Y: 41±8% versus A: 3±2%), which could be augmented by superoxide dismutase (SOD) or Tiron (but not l -arginine or the TXA 2 receptor antagonist SQ29,548). For lucigenin chemiluminescence, O 2 ·− generation was significantly greater in A than Y vessels and could be inhibited with SOD and diphenyliodonium. NADH-driven O 2 ·− generation was also greater in A vessels. Both endothelial and smooth muscle cells of A vessels produced O 2 ·− (shown with ethidium bromide fluorescence). For Western blotting, expression of eNOS and COX-1 was decreased in A compared with Y arterioles, whereas expressions of COX-2, Cu/Zn-SOD, Mn-SOD, xanthine oxidase, and the NAD(P)H oxidase subunits p47 phox , p67 phox , Mox-1, and p22 phox did not differ. Aged arterioles showed an increased expression of iNOS, confined to the endothelium. Decreased eNOS mRNA and increased iNOS mRNA expression in A vessels was shown by quantitative RT-PCR. In vivo formation of peroxynitrite was evidenced by Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry showing increased 3-nitrotyrosine content in A vessels. Thus, aging induces changes in the phenotype of coronary arterioles that could contribute to the development of oxidative stress, which impairs NO-mediated dilations.

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.
