“…Precise mechanisms underlying agonist-induced nonphagocyte NADPH oxidase activation are not yet understood, but it is clear that both acute protein modification and chronic changes in expression levels may be involved. Several studies have shown a crucial role of the p47 phox subunit in agonist-induced (angiotensin II [Ang II], PMA, TNF-␣, growth factors, and thrombin) vascular cell NADPH oxidase activation (18,(21)(22)(23) and in the development of atherosclerotic lesions in ApoEϪ/Ϫ mice (24). We also found that coronary microvascular endothelial cells isolated from wild-type mice respond to PMA and TNF-␣ with a significant increase in O 2 Ϫ generation.…”

“…A recent study has demonstrated that NADPH oxidase is responsible for the generation of superoxide in mouse lung microvascular endothelial cells stimulated with PMA, and that the superoxide release is inhibited by DPI. 34) These results indicate that NADPH oxidases, originating from lung microvascular endothelial cells as well as from neutrophils, participate in superoxide generation.…”

“…The doses of DPI, a NADPH oxidase inhibitor, 32) and allopurinol, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor, 33) to inhibit superoxide generation were chosen as follows. Some in vitro studies have reported that DPI at concentrations ranging from 10 to 100 mM exerted an inhibitory effect on superoxide generation from pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells stimulated with paraquat or phorbol ester (PMA), 4,34) and the inhibition of NADPH oxidase activity in neutrophils was complete at DPI concentrations above 10 mM. 33) A dose of 600 mg/kg DPI (i.v.)…”

“…generation may play a critical role. 3,5 Two potential inducible intracellular sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase, a flavin-containing enzyme present in polymorphonuclear cells and in the systemic and pulmonary vasculature, 6,7 and xanthine oxidase, a modified form of the ubiquitous enzyme xanthine dehydrogenase. 8 In resting cells, NADPH oxidase has a low level of activity, and its protein components are segregated into cytoplasmic and plasma membrane compartments.…”
