OBJECTIVE: Hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension (HPH) increases lipid peroxidation with generation of toxic aldehydes that are metabolized by detoxifying enzymes, including ALDH2 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 2). However, the role of lipid peroxidation and ALDH2 in HPH pathogenesis remain undefined. Approach and Results: To determine the role of lipid peroxidation and ALDH2 in HPH, C57BL/6 mice, ALDH2 transgenic mice, and ALDH2 knockout (ALDH2-/-) mice were exposed to chronic hypoxia, and recombinant tissue-specific ALDH2 overexpression adeno-associated viruses were introduced into pulmonary arteries via tail vein injection for ALDH2 overexpression. Human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells were used to elucidate underlying mechanisms in vitro. Chronic hypoxia promoted lipid peroxidation due to the excessive production of reactive oxygen species and increased expression of lipoxygenases in lung tissues. 4-hydroxynonenal but not malondialdehyde level was increased in hypoxic lung tissues which might reflect differences in detoxifying enzymes. ALDH2 overexpression attenuated the development of HPH, whereas ALDH2 knockout aggravated it. Specific overexpression of ALDH2 using AAV1 (adeno-associated virus)-ICAM (intercellular adhesion molecule) 2p-ALDH2 and AAV2-SM22αp (smooth muscle 22 alpha)-ALDH2 viral vectors in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells, but not endothelial cells, prevented the development of HPH. Hypoxia or 4-hydroxynonenal increased stabilization of HIF (hypoxia-inducible factor)-1α, phosphorylation of Drp1 (dynamin-related protein 1) at serine 616, mitochondrial fission, and pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells proliferation, whereas ALDH2 activation suppressed the latter 3. CONCLUSIONS: Increased 4-hydroxynonenal level plays a critical role in the development of HPH. ALDH2 attenuates the development of HPH by regulating mitochondrial fission and smooth muscle cell proliferation suggesting ALDH2 as a potential new therapeutic target for pulmonary hypertension.
