Increased superoxide anion production is associated with early atherosclerosis and cardiovascular dysfunctions in a rabbit model.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:Hypercholesterolemia (HC) has been associated with impairment of vascular and myocardial functions. As HC could generate an alteration in the oxidative status, we studied the effects of a 1-month cholesterol diet on cardiovascular oxidative stress. METHODS AND RESULTS:New Zealand rabbits received cholesterol (1%) or normal chow for 1 month. At 30 days, superoxide anion levels, assessed by ESR spectroscopy, NAD(P)H oxidase (NOX) activity, and dihydroethidium (DHE) staining of aortas were higher in the cholesterol-fed (CF) group compared with control (respectively, 4.0 +/- 0.6 Arbitrary Units/mg (AU/mg) vs. 2.6 +/- 0.3, p < 0.05; 4231 +/- 433 vs. 2931 +/- 373 AU/mg, p<0.05; 21.4 +/- 1.2 vs. 12.9 +/- 1.7% fluorescence/mm2, p < 0.001). NOX gp91 phox and p67 phox expression in the aortas were higher in the CF group vs. control (1.5 +/- 0.2 vs. 0.5 +/- 0.2, p < 0.001; 0.9 +/- 0.2 vs. 0.3 +/- 0.2, p<0.05). The endothelium-dependent relaxation evaluated on the iliac arteries was higher in control than in the CF group (64.8 +/- 10.1 vs. 13.1 +/- 3.70%, p<0.001). The cardiac diastolic pressure estimated on isolated hearts was higher in the CF group than in control (21.1 +/- 4.1 vs. 10.3 +/- 1.4 mmHg, p<0.05) after 60 min of ischemia. CONCLUSIONS:Hypercholesterolemia induced increased levels of superoxide in the aortas and a higher expression of NOX subunits, associated with altered vasorelaxation. The increased diastolic pressure observed in hearts, consistent with a post-ischemic contractile dysfunction might be mediated by the production of superoxide.
