N-Hydroxyarginine as a Redox Activated Nitric Oxide Therapy

  Research Group: Crabtree and Campagnolo
Endothelial dysfunction is a unifying mechanism in diabetes, atherosclerosis and other chronic cardiovascular diseases. It is driven by oxidative stress and loss of nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability, particularly through oxidation of the essential eNOS cofactor tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) to 7,8‑dihydrobiopterin (BH2).
