Peripheral artery disease (PAD) pathophysiology extends beyond hemodynamics to include other operating mechanisms, including endothelial dysfunction. Oxidative stress may be linked to endothelial dysfunction by reducing nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability. We aimed to investigate whether the NO system and its regulators are altered in the setting of PAD and to assess the relationship between NO bioavailability and oxidative stress. Sera from 35 patients with intermittent claudication (IC), 26 patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI), and 35 non-PAD controls were analyzed to determine levels of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), dihydrobiopterin (BH2), nitrate/nitrite (nitric oxides, or NOx), arginine, citrulline, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA), and the oxidative stress markers 8-Oxo-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), advanced glycation end products (AGEs), and protein carbonyls. NOx was significantly lower in IC and CLI patients compared to controls in association with elevated oxidative stress, with the greatest NOx reductions observed in CLI. Compared with controls, IC and CLI patients had reduced BH4, elevated BH2, and a reduced BH4/BH2 ratio. SDMA, the arginine/SDMA ratio, and the arginine/ADMA ratio were significantly higher in CLI patients. The NO system and its regulators are significantly compromised in PAD. This dysregulation appears to be driven by increased oxidative stress and worsens as the disease progresses from claudication to CLI.

Abstract. Both coronary and peripheral artery disease are representative atherosclerotic diseases, which are also known to be positively associated with presence of abdominal aortic aneurysm. It is still controversial, however, whether coronary and peripheral artery disease are positively associated with expansion and rupture as well as presence of abdominal aortic aneurysm. In the present article, we overviewed epidemiological evidence, i. e. meta-analyses, regarding the associations of coronary and peripheral artery disease with presence, expansion, and rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm through a systematic literature search. Our exhaustive search identified seven meta-analyses, which suggest that both coronary and peripheral artery disease are positively associated with presence of abdominal aortic aneurysm, may be negatively associated with expansion of abdominal aortic aneurysm, and might be unassociated with rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm.
