Impaired effectiveness of nitric oxide-donors in resistance arteries of patients with arterial hypertension
Impaired effectiveness of nitric oxide-donors in resistance arteries of patients with arterial hypertension
Dilation of resistance arteries in response to infusion of nitric oxide donors is impaired in hypertensive patients and the degree of this impairment depends critically on the severity of arterial hypertension. The reduced effectiveness of nitric oxide appears to be independent of the class of nitric oxide donor and thus of the mode of intravascular nitric oxide generation. These findings are likely to have important implications not only for our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of endothelial dysfunction but also for nitric oxide donor therapy in arterial hypertension.

Abstract
Dilation of resistance arteries in response to infusion of nitric oxide donors is impaired in hypertensive patients and the degree of this impairment depends critically on the severity of arterial hypertension. The reduced effectiveness of nitric oxide appears to be independent of the class of nitric oxide donor and thus of the mode of intravascular nitric oxide generation. These findings are likely to have important implications not only for our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of endothelial dysfunction but also for nitric oxide donor therapy in arterial hypertension.
