Aims: This study evaluates a possible relationship between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2-derived products in conductance and resistance arteries from hypertensive animals. Angiotensin II (Ang II)-infused mice or spontaneously hypertensive rats treated with the NAD(P)H Oxidase inhibitor apocynin, the mitochondrion-targeted SOD2 mimetic Mito-TEMPO, the superoxide dismutase analog tempol, or the COX-2 inhibitor Celecoxib were used.

Results: Apocynin, Mito-TEMPO, and Celecoxib treatments prevented Ang II-induced hypertension, the increased vasoconstrictor responses to phenylephrine, and the reduced acetylcholine relaxation.
