Tongxinluo Inhibits Cyclooxygenase-2, Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase, Hypoxia-inducible Factor-2α/Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor to Antagonize Injury in Hypoxia-stimulated Cardiac Microvascular Endothelial Cells

Background: Endothelial dysfunction is considered as the initiating process and pathological basis of cardiovascular disease. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and prostacyclin synthase (PGIS), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and endothelial NOS (eNOS) are key enzymes with opposing actions in inflamma...
