Abstract
Pneumonectomy results in a transient increase in RVP. Under normal circumstances, these pressures return to baseline within 3 days. The eNOS-/- mice failed to display compensatory vasodilation yet could be rescued with iNO. These results suggest that eNOS is essential for postpneumonectomy compensatory vasodilation.
