Inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase restores hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in endotoxemic mice

Published: Oct 1, 2020
Abstract
Endotoxemia impairs hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction which leads to systemic hypoxemia. This derogation is attributable to increased activity of nitric oxide synthase 2 and arginase metabolism. Gene expression analysis has shown increased expression of ornithine decarboxylase in lungs of endotoxemic mice, a downstream enzyme of arginase metabolism. The aim of this study was to investigate whether inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase increases...
