Paclitaxel-Induced Endothelial Dysfunction in Living Rats Is Prevented by Nicorandil via Reduction of Oxidative Stress

Paclitaxel-eluting stents dramatically reduce rates of in-stent restenosis; however, paclitaxel is known to lead to endothelial dysfunction. Protective effects of nicorandil on paclitaxel-induced endothelial dysfunction by examining flow-mediated dilation (FMD) were investigated in anesthetized rats...
