Elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induces vasoconstriction and pulmonary vascular remodeling in PPHN via multiple mechanisms. In ECs, ROS inhibit eNOS activity, resulting in decreased levels of bioavailable NO. In smooth muscle cells, ROS inactivate sGC and activate PDE5, resulting in decreased levels of cGMP.
