We recently demonstrated that rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle (RPASM) generates maximal nitric oxide (NO) when exposed to inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interferon (IFN)-gamma. Our hypothesis is that NO produced by cytokine-stimulated RPASM has local cytotoxic effects on endothelium. Accordingly, we designed a pulmonary smooth muscle and endothelial coculture experiment in which the effects of NO on endothelium can be distinguished from the direct effects of cytokines.
