Redox-Dependent Mechanisms in Coronary Collateral Growth: The “Redox Window” Hypothesis

Abstract: This review addresses the complexity of coronary collateral growth from the aspect of redox signaling and introduces the concept of a ''redox window'' in the context of collateral growth. In essence, the redox window constitutes a range in the redox state of cells, which not only is permissive for the actions of growth factors but also amplifies their actions. The interactions of redox-dependent signaling with growth factors are well established through the actions of many redox-dependent kinases (e.g., Akt an… Show more

“…Mild, but not severe, increases in reactive oxygen and nitrogen species are needed to transduce VEGF's angiogenic signal. This concept is now known as the redox window 42 ( Figure 3) and might be one explanation for the angiogenic paradox (increased versus impaired angiogenesis) in different vascular beds in diabetes as well as the reason why 'therapeutic angiogenesis trials' failed. 42,62 Several studies provided evidence as to how the redox window modulates VEGF-A signaling in diabetic retinopathy.…”

“…Resting distal coronary pressure consistently falls as stenosis severity exceeds 70% (13). Myocardial ischemia, growth factors and shear stress are likely the factors that contributes to initiating and remodeling for collateral development during the tissue hypoxia (15). The severity of CAD and the duration of myocardial ischemic symptoms were described as influencing the development of coronary collaterals (16).…”

“…On the opposite side of the spectrum, too little ROS and the consequential reductive stress, also inhibits coronary collateral growth. This optimal "level" of ROS has been dubbed "redox window" [24], which is the level of the redox state that is optimal for growth factor signaling. p53 is thought to be the connection between redox dependent and growth factor dependent signaling.…”

“…As a result, this particular species is exclusively deleterious when produced within a cell. When the ROS levels deviate away from the "redox widow," imbalance in these systems occurs and detrimental consequences can be triggered [24].…”
