TO THE EDITOR: The proposed role of O2 produced by NAD (P) H oxidase acting in concert with changes in mitochondrial O2 on regulating local blood flow hypothesized by Golub and Pittman (5) could very well be a contributing factor in the fascinatingly complex biology of the NO pathway. A delayed increase in O2 production might explain the frequently observed undershoot in blood flow after reactive hyperemia. However, it is far too simplistic to attribute a major role to a single mechanism, as recognized in my review paper on NO (1) and demonstrated in an earlier mathematical model showing theoretical effects of NO scavenging by O2(4) and more thoroughly discussed in updated reviews (2, 3) for developments that need to be incorporated into mathematical models for NO biotransport. In my view, it is unlikely that a single “set point” for NO flux exists, because many other mechanisms, some of which are dependent on NO whereas others are not, can significantly modify NO-related feedback signaling. Indirect effects of NO, for example by nitrosylation of various signaling proteins, can also alter the sensitivity of blood flow regulation. Furthermore, because NO is known to inhibit the mitochondrial respiration chain and there is evidence in the literature that cytochrome oxidase can act either as an O2 reductase or a NO oxidase, it is difficult to precisely define tissue hypoxia without knowing the extent of metabolic inhibition and net ATP production. A comprehensive, dynamic model for regulating blood flow and metabolism remains to be developed and experimentally verified.
