Article Synopsis
  • Impaired endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) function and decreased nitric oxide (NO) production are linked to cardiovascular disease risk factors like diabetes and obesity, affecting mitochondrial health.
  • Genetic eNOS deletion and short-term NOS inhibition in rodents led to reduced mitochondrial protein levels and disrupted fission/fusion processes in the aorta.
  • The study highlights the importance of eNOS/NO in maintaining both baseline and adaptive mitochondrial biogenesis within blood vessels, which is crucial for cardiovascular health.
