Abstract	Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has been associated with a number of different but interrelated pathogenic mechanisms. Metabolic and oxidative stresses have been shown to play important pathogenic roles in a variety of model systems. However, many of these relationships remain at the level of association. We sought to establish a direct role for metabolic stress and oxidant injury in the pathogenesis of PAH. Mice that universally express a disease-causing mutation in bone morphogenic protein receptor 2 (Bmpr2) were exposed to room air or to brief daily hyperoxia (95% oxygen for 3 h) for 6 weeks, and were compared with wild-type animals undergoing identical exposures. In both murine tissues and cultured endothelial cells, the expression of mutant Bmpr2 was sufficient to cause oxidant injury that was particularly pronounced in mitochondrial membranes. With the enhancement of mitochondrial generation of reactive oxygen species by hyperoxia, oxidant injury was substantially enhanced in mitochondrial membranes, even in tissues distant from the lung. Hyperoxia, despite its vasodilatory actions in the pulmonary circulation, significantly worsened the PAH phenotype (elevated right ventricular systolic pressure, decreased cardiac output, and increased pulmonary vascular occlusion) in Bmpr2 mutant animals. These experiments demonstrate that oxidant injury and metabolic stress contribute directly to disease development, and provide further evidence for PAH as a systemic disease with life-limiting cardiopulmonary manifestations.

Scholarly citation norms must be followed for content reuse.

Please note that the acknowledgment text includes a Research Resource Identifier (RRID) for the MMPC-Live CU and Centers. Reproducibility is one of the corner stones of effective, open and transparent biomedical published research. However, too often, resources (e.g. model organisms, antibodies, and tools) are not reported with adequate detail to ensure others can replicate or expand upon the published results. The Research Resource Identification Initiative (#RII) seeks to change these limitations in reporting by the use of unique Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs). This initiative is designed to encourage authors to provide identification of the types of resources used in their research by adding a globally unique accession number to the resources described in the their manuscripts. These identifiers, called RRIDs, will allow authors to cite the resources that they use in their manuscripts. RRIDs allow for easy tracking of all papers that have used the same resource making it easy to access how the same resources works in other scenarios.

It is expected that MMPC-Live users follow scholarly citation norms, giving credit to fellow scholars when accessing/using protocols and data, including data derived by MMPC-Live (such as summary data) and any plots, tables or screenshots depicting those data.
