P10 LOSS OF ENDOTHELIUM-DEPENDENT REGULATION OF ARTERIAL WALL VISCOSITY IN ESSENTIAL HYPERTENSION
Background: Nitric oxide (NO) and epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) regulate arterial wall viscosity (AWV) in young subjects (1). During hypertension, characterised by a decrease in endothelium-derived NO and an early disappearance of EETs, AWV is not modified (2,3). We compared the role of NO and EE...
