Excess NO may impair autoregulation after prolonged renal ischemia in rats; hypothesis-generating for human AKI endothelial dysfunction.
Does ischemia-reperfusion injury cause renal endothelial dysfunction and impaired autoregulation via excess nitric oxide in Sprague-Dawley rats?
Arteriolar endothelial dysfunction after prolonged ischemic acute renal failure is predominantly functional rather than structural, driven by excess nitric oxide and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor.
Guan et al. (2006) studied this question.
