Oxygen is a critical substrate for both nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide (02-) biosynthesis. Previous studies have established that constitutive calcium-dependent NO synthase (NOS) and 02 producing NADPH-oxidase are affected at the level of gene expression and at a functional level. For example, hypoxia increases expression of the genes encoding both macrophage and endothelial NOS isoforms, and low oxygen tension attenuates NOS activity and NO-dependent vascular relaxation. Both NOS and NADPH-oxidase participate in modulation of vascular tone ° although how oxygen regulates endothelial response is unclear. We have previously demonstrated the dependence of macrophage NADPH-oxidase on the cellular distribution of oxygen, and both superoxide and NO production by endothelial cells.
