The dependence of nitric oxide synthase inhibition caused by cigarette smoking extract on the cellular aging of bovine aortic endothelial cells
Objectives Cigarette smoking had been recorded as the main cause of impaired endothelium- dependent vasodilation in smokers by reducing nitric oxide (NO), a production of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). However, the mechanism of NO impairment via eNOS activity is unclear until now. In this...
