Endothelial dysfunction and reduced nitric oxide in resistance arteries in autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease

Abstract: EDR in resistance vessels from patients with ADPKD is impaired even in the absence of hypertension or CRI, but becomes more marked as hypertension develops. Patients with ADPKD have defective nitric oxide generation from diminished cNOS activity. Endothelial dysfunction and impaired cNOS activity in ADPKD may predispose to hypertension whose occurrence is accompanied by a further sharp deterioration in EDR.

“…It is possible that these are secondary to the development of renal cysts (4). The expression of polycystin 1 and polycystin 2 in vascular smooth muscle (5-7) and endothelial cells (8) and the functional alterations of vascular smooth muscle (9,10) and endothelial cells (11,12) with PKD1 or PKD2 mutations raise the possibility of a direct role of these mutations in their pathogenesis. The extent to which changes in renal blood flow (RBF) and vascular remodeling are associated with and possibly contribute to cystic disease progression and functional decline has not been ascertained, in part because of the lack of noninvasive methods.…”

“…Endothelial dysfunction has been shown to predate hypertension and chronic renal insufficiency in ADPKD and therefore appears to be a primary defect (58). However, as hypertension progresses, endothelial dysfunction increases (58).…”

“…Hypertension occurs early and is related to the activation of the renin-angiotensinaldosterone system (RAAS), including its major components angiotensinogen, renin, and angiotensin II, vascular inflammation and chemotaxis, endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and nitric oxide (NO) deficiency (6,8,27,47,(57)(58)(59)(60)(61).…”

“…Hypertension in ADPKD is characterized by relative activation of the reninangiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) (20 -22), the sympathetic nervous system (23), endothelin (24), and vasopressin (25,26). Abnormalities in endothelial function, left and right ventricular function, and kidney blood flow are present before loss of kidney function and the development of hypertension, and renal excretion of sodium is reduced early in ADPKD (27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35). These observations suggest that defects as a result of mutations in the polycystins may result in a vascular phenotype that is specific to ADPKD.…”
