The role of uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) in cardiac adaptation to pressure overload remains unclear. In a classical model of left ventricular pressure overload genetic deletion of UCP2 (UCP2-/-) protected against cardiac hypertrophy and failure. However, in UCP2-/- mice increased proliferation of pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells induces mild pulmonary hypertension, right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy, and reduced cardiac output. This suggests a different role for UCP2 in RV and left ventricular adaptation to pressure overload. To clarify this situation in more detail UCP2-/- and wild-type mice were exposed to pulmonary arterial banding (PAB).
