Divergent Cardiopulmonary Actions of Heme Oxygenase Enzymatic Products in Chronic Hypoxia

BACKGROUND: Hypoxia and pressure-overload induce heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in cardiomyocytes and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). HO-1(−/−) mice exposed to chronic hypoxia develop pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) with exaggerated right ventricular (RV) injury consisting of dilation, fibrosis...
