摘要

VEGF, nitric oxide (NO), inflammation, and vascular- and extravascular remodeling coexist in asthma and other disorders. In these responses, VEGF regulates angiogenesis. VEGF also induces inflammation and remodeling. The mechanisms of the latter responses have not been defined, however. We hypothesized that VEGF-induces extravascular tissue responses via NO-dependent mechanisms. To evaluate this hypothesis, we compared the effects of transgenic VEGF(165) in lungs from normal mice, mice treated with pan-NO synthase (NOS) or endothelial NOS (eNOS) inhibitors, and mice with null mutations of inducible NOS (iNOS) or eNOS. These studies demonstrate that VEGF selectively stimulates eNOS and NOS. They also demonstrate that VEGF induces pulmonary alterations via NO-dependent and -independent mechanisms with angiogenesis, edema, mucus metaplasia, airway hyperresponsiveness, lymphocyte accumulation, dendritic cell hyperplasia and S-nitrosoglutathione reductase stimulation being NO-dependent and dendritic cell activation being NO-independent. Furthermore, they demonstrate that eNOS and NOS both contribute to these responses. NO/NOS-based interventions may be therapeutic in VEGF-driven inflammation and remodeling.
