Mitochondrial transplantation attenuates hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction
Hypoxia triggers pulmonary vasoconstriction, however induces relaxation of systemic arteries such as femoral arteries. Mitochondria are functionally and structurally heterogeneous between different cell types. The aim of this study was to reveal whether mitochondrial heterogeneity controls the distinct responses of pulmonary versus systemic artery smooth muscle cells to hypoxia. Intact mitochon...
متن کاملMitochondrial transplantation attenuates hypoxic pulmonary hypertension
Mitochondria are essential for the onset of hypoxia-induced pulmonary vasoconstriction and pulmonary vascular-remodeling, two major aspects underlying the development of pulmonary hypertension, an incurable disease. However, hypoxia induces relaxation of systemic arteries such as femoral arteries and mitochondrial heterogeneity controls the distinct responses of pulmonary versus femoral artery ...
متن کاملHypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction.
Humans encounter hypoxia throughout their lives. This occurs by destiny in utero, through disease, and by desire, in our quest for altitude. Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is a widely conserved, homeostatic, vasomotor response of resistance pulmonary arteries to alveolar hypoxia. HPV mediates ventilation-perfusion matching and, by reducing shunt fraction, optimizes systemic Po(2). HPV...
متن کاملHypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction.
Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction is a local reflex in the lung that diverts blood away from poorly oxygenated regions. Improvements in understanding of modulators of this response have led to pharmacologic methods whereby V/Q matching may potentially be improved in certain types of pulmonary pathology and during anesthesia for thoracic surgical procedures.
متن کاملModel for hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction involving mitochondrial oxygen sensing.
We tested whether mitochondria function as the O(2) sensor underlying hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV). In buffer-perfused rat lungs, rotenone, myxothiazol, and diphenyleneiodonium, which inhibit mitochondria in the proximal region of the electron transport chain (ETC), abolished HPV without attenuating the response to U46619. Cyanide and antimycin A inhibit electron transfer in the dis...
