Abstract We investigated the effects of aortic banding–induced hypertension on the endothelium-dependent vasodilator responses in the aorta and coronary circulation of Sprague-Dawley rats. We studied the influence of hypertension on the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS III) expression, assessed by Western blot and reverse transcription–polymerase chain reactions experiments, and on the superoxide anion (O2-) production. Two weeks after aortic banding, the endothelium-dependent relaxations were not altered. At this time, the expression of NOS III in the aorta and in confluent coronary microvascular endothelial cells (RCMECs) exhibited no marked changes, whereas O2- production was enhanced 1.9-fold in aortas from aortic-banded rats. Six weeks after aortic banding, the endothelium-dependent dilations were markedly impaired in the heart (50% decrease) and aorta (35% decrease). Analysis of NOS III protein and mRNA levels revealed marked increases in both aortas and confluent RCMECs (2.6- to 4-fold) from aortic-banded compared with sham-operated rats. There was no further increase in O2- production in both the aorta and confluent RCMECs from aortic-banded rats. An enhanced nitrotyrosine protein level was also detected in the aorta from 6-week aortic-banded rats. These findings indicate that in hypertension induced by aortic banding, an enhanced O2- production alone is not sufficient to produce endothelial dysfunction. Endothelial vasodilator hyporesponsiveness was observed only when NOS III expression and O2- production were increased and was associated with the appearance of enhanced nitrotyrosine residues. This would suggest that the development of endothelial dysfunction is linked to an overproduction of not one, but two, endothelium-derived radicals that might lead to the formation of peroxynitrite.
