Research Abstract |
We used F344 which high-altitude pulmonary edema was hard to develop and WKY which it was easy compared eNOS, ACE receptor and HIF1α protein expressions, in the pulmonary and systemic arteries by chronic and acute exposures to hypoxia, and inspected association with the high-altitude pulmonary edema onset. Thecoefficients of pulmonary vascular filtration were significantly shown lower in F344 group in comparison with WKY group. With the F344 rats, hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction was inhibited after the chronic exposure to hypoxia, and right ventricular hypertrophy and pulmonary hyperplasia were small, and the endothelial nitric oxide synthase activities and protein expressions in pulmonary arteries were high. The onsets of the high-altitude pulmonary edema depended on pulmonary vascular sensitivities to hypoxia, and the contribution of genetic factors became clear.
