The Effects of Acidosis on eNOS in the Systemic Vasculature: A Focus on Early Postnatal Ontogenesis

Abstract: The activity of many vasomotor signaling pathways strongly depends on extracellular/intracellular pH. Nitric oxide (NO) is one of the most important vasodilators produced by the endothelium. In this review, we present evidence that in most vascular beds of mature mammalian organisms metabolic or respiratory acidosis increases functional endothelial NO-synthase (eNOS) activity, despite the observation that direct effects of low pH on eNOS enzymatic activity are inhibitory. This can be explained by the fact that… Show more

“…In addition, high glucose causes damage to endothelial cells by increasing TOS concentrations and impairs vascular responses ( Stocker and Keaney, 2004 ; Tota et al, 2021 ). This deterioration in vascular responses has also been attributed to NO-dependent mechanisms ( Alp et al, 2003 ; Cai et al, 2005 ; Gaynullina et al, 2022 ). Therefore, we measured eNOS levels in the high glucose group and found a significantly decreased eNOS, parallel with other studies ( Han et al, 2014 ; Kassan et al, 2014 ).…”

“…The body's response to the hypoxaemic state either acute or chronic, is linked to an increase in minute ventilation leading to a steady increase of hypocapnia, as the CO2 diffuses through tissues faster than O2. Though the clinical significance of this loop still remains to clarify, the whole scenario suggests that this condition may generate a steady immune dysfunction due to a subtle inflammatory process that progress over the years almost unnoticed, typical patterns that vividly recall the the ABDs [22][23][24].…”

“…Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, angiotensin (Ang) II, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α are important inflammatory factors and are abundantly expressed in the process of vascular injury. [8][9][10] Ang II, thromboxane (TX)A 2 , and ET-1 are vasoconstriction regulators, 11,12 while prostaglandin (PG)I 2 , atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), and nitric oxide (NO) are vasodilation regulators, [13][14][15] which collectively play an important role in maintaining normal vascular ecology.…”
