Implication

Preserving NO bioavailability may enhance collateral function in ischemia; leaves open targeted interventions for clinical validation.

Key Points

Synthesize the regulatory role of nitric oxide in collateral vessel adaptation, vascular conductance, and therapeutic vascular remodeling following arterial occlusion.
Review of mechanistic evidence examining the roles of shear stress, nitric oxide signaling, and growth factor pathways in collateral conduit enlargement.
Evaluation of interventions promoting arteriogenesis, specifically exercise training and exogenous growth factor administration (VEGF, FGF-2).
Nitric oxide modulates vasomotor tone to enhance collateral vessel conductance and downstream perfusion, with efficacy substantially amplified by prior exercise training.
Nitric oxide synthesis is required for therapeutic arteriogenesis driven by VEGF, FGF-2, or exercise via signaling pathways distinct from sheer conductance changes.
