Abstract
Previous studies have suggested an involvement of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in obesity, but the relation, if
any, between this and mechanisms underlying endothelial dysfunction in obesity is unknown. We studied mice fed an obesogenic
high-fat or standard diet for up to 8 weeks. Obesity was associated with elevated blood pressure; resistance to the glucoregulatory
actions of insulin; resistance to the vascular actions of insulin, assessed as the reduction in phenylephrine constrictor
response of aortic rings after insulin preincubation (lean −21.7 ± 11.5 vs. obese 18.2 ± 15.5%; P < 0.05); and evidence of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent vasodilatation in response to acetylcholine in aortic rings
(change in maximal relaxation to acetylcholine after exposure to catalase: lean −2.1 ± 6.0 vs. obese −15.0 ± 3.8%; P = 0.04). Obese mice had increased expression of iNOS in aorta, with evidence of increased vascular NO production, assessed
as the increase in maximal constriction to phenylephrine after iNOS inhibition with 1400W (lean −3.5 ± 9.1 vs. obese 42.1
± 11.2%; P < 0.001). To further address the role of iNOS in obesity-induced vascular and metabolic dysfunction, we studied the effect
of a high-fat diet in iNOS knockout mice (iNOS KO). Obese iNOS KO mice were protected against the development of resistance
to insulin’s glucoregulatory and vascular effects (insulin-dependent reduction in maximal phenylephrine response: obese wild-type
11.2 ± 15.0 vs. obese iNOS KO −20.0 ± 7.7%; P = 0.02). However, obese iNOS KO mice remained hypertensive (124.0 ± 0.7 vs. 114.9 ± 0.5 mmHg; P < 0.01) and had evidence of increased vascular ROS production. Although these data support iNOS as a target to protect against
the adverse effects of obesity on glucoregulation and vascular insulin resistance, iNOS inhibition does not prevent the development
of raised blood pressure or oxidative stress.

Abstract
Previous studies have suggested an involvement of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in obesity, but the relation, if
any, between this and mechanisms underlying endothelial dysfunction in obesity is unknown. We studied mice fed an obesogenic
high-fat or standard diet for up to 8 weeks. Obesity was associated with elevated blood pressure; resistance to the glucoregulatory
actions of insulin; resistance to the vascular actions of insulin, assessed as the reduction in phenylephrine constrictor
response of aortic rings after insulin preincubation (lean −21.7 ± 11.5 vs. obese 18.2 ± 15.5%; P < 0.05); and evidence of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent vasodilatation in response to acetylcholine in aortic rings
(change in maximal relaxation to acetylcholine after exposure to catalase: lean −2.1 ± 6.0 vs. obese −15.0 ± 3.8%; P = 0.04). Obese mice had increased expression of iNOS in aorta, with evidence of increased vascular NO production, assessed
as the increase in maximal constriction to phenylephrine after iNOS inhibition with 1400W (lean −3.5 ± 9.1 vs. obese 42.1
± 11.2%; P < 0.001). To further address the role of iNOS in obesity-induced vascular and metabolic dysfunction, we studied the effect
of a high-fat diet in iNOS knockout mice (iNOS KO). Obese iNOS KO mice were protected against the development of resistance
to insulin’s glucoregulatory and vascular effects (insulin-dependent reduction in maximal phenylephrine response: obese wild-type
11.2 ± 15.0 vs. obese iNOS KO −20.0 ± 7.7%; P = 0.02). However, obese iNOS KO mice remained hypertensive (124.0 ± 0.7 vs. 114.9 ± 0.5 mmHg; P < 0.01) and had evidence of increased vascular ROS production. Although these data support iNOS as a target to protect against
the adverse effects of obesity on glucoregulation and vascular insulin resistance, iNOS inhibition does not prevent the development
of raised blood pressure or oxidative stress.
