Abstract

Abstract —Oxygen-derived free radicals are involved in the vascular response to angiotensin II (Ang II), but the role of NADPH oxidase, its subunit proteins, and their vascular localization remain controversial. Our purpose was to address the role of NADPH oxidase in the blood pressure (BP), aortic hypertrophic, and oxidant responses to Ang II by taking advantage of knockout (KO) mice that are genetically deficient in gp91 phox , an NADPH oxidase subunit protein. The baseline BP was significantly lower in KO mice than in wild-type (WT) (92±2 [KO] versus 101±1 [WT] mm Hg, P <0.01), but infusion of Ang II for 6 days caused similar increases in BP in the 2 strains (33±4 [KO] versus 38±2 [WT] mm Hg, P >0.4). Ang II increased aortic superoxide anion production 2-fold in the aorta of WT mice but did not do so in KO mice. Aortic medial area increased in WT (0.12±0.02 to 0.17±0.02 mm 2 , P <0.05), but did not do so in KO mice (0.10±0.01 to 0.11±0.01 mm 2 , P >0.05). Histochemistry and polymerase chain reaction demonstrated gp91 phox localized in endothelium and adventitia of WT mice. Levels of reactive oxidant species as indicated by 3-nitrotyrosine immunoreactivity increased in these regions in WT but not in KO mouse aorta in response to Ang II. These results indicate an essential role in vivo of gp91 phox and NADPH oxidase–derived superoxide anion in the regulation of basal BP and a pressure-independent vascular hypertrophic and oxidant stress response to Ang II.

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.
