The mechanisms that lead to COPD and cause its cardiovascular complications are partially known. NO is produced at high levels by NO-synthases in the human lung with emphysema, but its role in this disease is not clear. Interestingly, COPD patients have an endothelial dysfunction linked to the decrease of NO levels in peripheral blood vessels. In a first study, we demonstrated that iNOS and eNOS were diffusely upregulated in the lung of mice with emphysema after elastase instillation. By using iNOS-/- and eNOS -/- mice and a drug-based inhibitor of iNOS (1400W), we demonstrated that the induction of iNOS in the lung was responsible of an increase of protein nitration in alveolar type 2 cells and of an alleviated oxidation of proteins.
