Objective-To assess the importance of genetic background for collateral artery development. Methods and Results-C57BL/6, BALB/c and 129S2/Sv mice were studied after femoral artery ligation by laser Doppler imaging, visible light oximetry, time-of-flight-magnetic resonance imaging, and treadmill testing; C57BL/6 and BALB/c also underwent electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) oximetry, x-ray angiography, and histology. C57BL/6 had the least initial distal ischemia and most complete recovery. BALB/c had the most severe initial ischemia and poorest recovery. BALB/c had some vasodilatory reserve in their ligated limbs not seen in the other strains at 3 weeks. By in vivo TOF-magnetic resonance angiography, C57BL/6 had larger preexistent and developed collaterals. By x-ray angiography, C57BL/6 had a higher collateral-dependent filling score and number of visible collaterals immediately after femoral ligation and a higher number of visible collaterals at 1 week but not at 4 weeks. EPR oximetry and histology revealed hypoxia and tissue damage in regions of collateral growth of BALB/c but not C57BL/6 mice. In C57BL/6 BrdUrd uptake in the thigh was limited to larger vessels and isolated perivascular cells. Proliferative activity in collateral arterioles was similar in both strains. Conclusions-Genetic differences in preexistent collateral vasculature can profoundly affect outcome and milieu for compensatory collateral artery growth after femoral artery occlusion.
