    Abstract Hypoxia sensing and related signaling events, including activation of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1), represent key features in cell physiology and lung function. Using cultured A549 cells, we investigated the role of NAD(P)H oxidase 1 (Nox1), suggested to be a subunit of a low-output NAD(P)H oxidase complex, in hypoxia signaling. Nox1 expression was detected on both the mRNA and protein levels. Upregulation of Nox1 mRNA and protein occurred during hypoxia, accompanied by enhanced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. A549 cells, which were transfected with a Nox1 expression vector, revealed an increase in ROS generation accompanied by activation of HIF-1-dependent target gene expression (heme oxygenase 1 mRNA, hypoxia-responsive-element reporter gene activity). In A549 cells stably overexpressing Nox1, accumulation of HIF-1alpha in normoxia and an additional increase in hypoxia were noted. Interference with ROS metabolism by the flavoprotein inhibitor diphenylene iodonium (DPI) and catalase inhibited HIF-1 induction. This suggests that H2O2 links Nox1 and HIF-1 activation. We conclude that hypoxic upregulation of Nox1 and subsequently augmented ROS generation may activate HIF-1-dependent pathways.

    Abstract Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) matches lung perfusion with ventilation. Controversy exists whether decreased or increased reactive oxygen species may elicit HPV and from which source such oxygen metabolites are derived. In rabbit lungs, we detected transcripts of a nonphagocytic NADPH oxidase subunit homologous to mitogenic oxidase-1 (Mox1) or NADPH oxidase homolog 1 (NOH-1L). In perfused rabbit lungs, we employed 1) a new NADPH oxidase inhibitor [4-(2-aminoethyl)benzenesulfonyl fluoride (AEBSF; 100-600 microM)] and 2) the superoxide dismutase (SOD) inhibitors diethyldithiocarbamic acid (DETC; 100 microM to 10 mM) and triethylenetetramine (TETA; 1-25 mM). Specificity of these agents for HPV was investigated by comparison with U-46619-induced vasoconstrictions. AEBSF induced a transient increase in pulmonary arterial pressure with increased strength of HPV. Subsequent to this initial response, normoxic pulmonary arterial pressure was not affected and HPV was specifically suppressed. Whereas DETC turned out to act in a nonspecific fashion, TETA suppressed HPV specifically. These findings provide evidence of a role for a nonphagocytic NAD(P)H oxidase with superoxide and SOD-related hydrogen peroxide formation in HPV. Because HPV was inhibited but not mimicked by the inhibitors, increased rather than decreased superoxide and/or hydrogen peroxide formation is suggested as the hypoxia-provoked signaling event.

    Title translation Tachycardia and pulmonary arterial hypertension.
    Abstract Pulmonary hypertension is newly defined as an elevation of the mean pulmonary arterial pressure >20 mmHg and a pulmonary vascular resistance ≥3 Wood units. Arrhythmias are an increasing problem in patients with pulmonary hypertension. Pathophysiological aspects leading to supraventricular arrhythmias are atrial fibrosis caused by increased right atrial pressure and dilation. An increased sympathetic tone leads to prolongation of action potential and delayed polarisations causing arrhythmias. Therapy of arrhythmias includes drugs (preferred amiodarone) and electrophysiological therapy like electric cardioversion and ablation, which is safe in patients with pulmonary hypertension.

    Abstract We present a wearable, flexible, wireless and smartphone-enabled epidermal electronic system (EES) for the continuous monitoring of a prognostic parameter for hypertension. The thin and lightweight EES can be tightly attached to the chest of a patient and synchronously monitor first lead electrocardiograms (ECG) and seismocardiograms (SCG). To demonstrate the concept, we developed the EES using state-of-the-art cleanroom technologies. Two types of sensors were integrated: A pair of metal electrodes to contact the skin and to record ECG and a vibration sensor based on a thin piezoelectric polymer to record SCG from the same location of the chest, simultaneously. The complete EES was powered by the near field communication functionality of the smartphone. We developed a machine-learning algorithm and trained it on public ECG data and recorded SCG signals to extract characteristic features of the recordings. Binary classifiers were used to automatically annotate peaks. After training, the algorithm was transferred to the smartphone to continuously analyze the timing between particular ECG and SCG peaks and to extract the Weissler's index as a prognostic parameter for hypertension. Tests with data of healthy control persons and clinical experiments with patients diagnosed with cardio-pulmonary hypertension showed a promising prognostic performance. The presented EES technology could be utilized for pre-screening of cardio-pulmonary hypertension, which is a strong burden in our today's healthcare system.
