Endothelial dysfunction and vascular disease
TL;DR: The endothelium can evoke relaxations (dilatations) of the underlying vascular smooth muscle, by releasing vasodilator substances, which are reduced in the course of vascular disease and selectively loose the pertussis toxin‐sensitive pathway for NO release which favours vasospasm, thrombosis, penetration of macrophages, cellular growth and the inflammatory reaction leading to atherosclerosis.
