Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction.
Humans encounter hypoxia throughout their lives. This occurs by destiny in utero, through disease, and by desire, in our quest for altitude. Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is a widely conserved, homeostatic, vasomotor response of resistance pulmonary arteries to alveolar hypoxia. HPV mediates ventilation-perfusion matching and, by reducing shunt fraction, optimizes systemic Po(2). HPV...
متن کاملPotential role of arachidonic acid metabolites in hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction.
Hypoxic vasoconstriction is important for lung ventilation/perfusion matching. The mechanism of hypoxic vasoconstriction remains elusive. Arachidonic acid is released from hypoxic tissues; possibly vasoconstricting arachidonate metabolites are involved in hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction. Data are presented that consider (a) lipoxygenase product(s) as "local," which could be involved in the h...
متن کاملHypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction.
Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction is a local reflex in the lung that diverts blood away from poorly oxygenated regions. Improvements in understanding of modulators of this response have led to pharmacologic methods whereby V/Q matching may potentially be improved in certain types of pulmonary pathology and during anesthesia for thoracic surgical procedures.
متن کاملHypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction in Humans
Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction is the elegant theory put forward more than six decades ago to explain regional variations in perfusion within the lung in certain animal species in response to localised restrictions in oxygenation. Although considerable progress has been made to describe the phenomenon at the macroscopic level and explain it at the microscopic level, we are far from a univer...
متن کاملSustained Hypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction in the Isolated Perfused Rat Lung: Effect of α1-adrenergic Receptor Agonist
Background: Alveolar hypoxia induces monophasic pulmonary vasoconstriction in vivo, biphasic vasoconstriction in the isolated pulmonary artery, and controversial responses in the isolated perfused lung. Pulmonary vascular responses to sustained alveolar hypoxia have not been addressed in the isolated perfused rat lung. In this study, we investigated the effect of sustained hypoxic ventilation o...
