Exposure to hypoxia causes structural changes in the endothelial cell (EC) monolayer that alter its permeability. There was a report earlier of impairment of nitric oxide (NO) production in endothelium. The intervention of NO in the altered cellular arrangements of actin cytoskeleton in endothelium for rectification of paracellular gaps in endothelium under hypoxia was observed. The present study...
Leakiness of the endothelial bed is attributed to the over-perfusion of the pulmonary bed, which leads to high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). Inhalation of nitric oxide has been successfully employed to treat HAPE patients. We hypothesize that nitric oxide intervenes in the permeability of the pulmonary macrovascular endothelial bed to rectify the leaky bed under hypoxia. Our present work explores...
