Lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor (LOX-1) is a newly identified endothelial cell surface major receptor for oxidatively modified low-density lipoprotein. Progression of arthrosclerosis in the donor organ after organ transplantation is a major problem. We hypothesized that ischemia-reperfusion induces LOX-1. After 1 h ischemia of bilateral kidneys plus 3, 6, or 12 h reperfusion, we first revealed that LOX-1 mRNA expression was increased in renal cortex and medulla at 6 h after reperfusion, which was decreased by L-arginine supplement. Plasma nitric oxide (NO) end-product nitrite plus nitrate and inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS) expression were increased after reperfusion of 6 h. However, NOS substrate L-arginine did not augment but markedly decreased plasma NO end product, because L-arginine supplement suppressed inducible NOS expression in kidney. We hypothesized that available L-arginine is depleted by ischemia-reperfusion, leading to inducible NOS induction. Ischemia decreased L-arginine levels in kidney and L-arginine supplement increased NO end products in renal cortex in the earliest phase of reperfusion. These results disclosed for the first time that a deficiency in L-arginine by ischemia reperfusion causes uncoupling of constitutive NOS, which induces inducible NOS and LOX-1, implying why L-arginine is effective for stroke or transplantation in preventing atherosclerotic progress.
