Basis for the correlation between dysregulation of eNOS/iNOS enzymes. Uncoupled eNOS is unable to produce NO and generates superoxide anions. The reduction in NO levels and the increase in lipoperoxides upregulate iNOS activity. In this context, lipoperoxide increase causes an enhanced expression of LOX-1 and, consequently, a further dysregulation of NO production.
