Journal ArticleDOI

Cell-free hemoglobin limits nitric oxide bioavailability in sickle-cell disease.

Christopher D. Reiter, +6 more
- 01 Dec 2002 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated here that plasma from patients with sickle-cell disease contains cell-free ferrous hemoglobin, which stoichiometrically consumes micromolar quantities of nitric oxide and abrogates forearm blood flow responses to Nitric oxide donor infusions.
Journal ArticleDOI

A critical review of biomarkers used for monitoring human exposure to lead: advantages, limitations, and future needs

Fernando Barbosa, +3 more
- 01 Dec 2005 - 
TL;DR: Traditional analytical protocols in current use are presented, and the influence of confounding variables on BPb levels are assessed and the significance of Pb determinations in human specimens including hair, nails, saliva, bone, blood, urine, feces, and exfoliated teeth are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of ethnicity on the distribution of clinically relevant endothelial nitric oxide variants.

Jose E. Tanus-Santos, +2 more
- 01 Nov 2001 - 
TL;DR: The marked interethnic differences that are found in the distribution of eNOS variants, in the estimated haplotype frequency, and in the association between variants may help to understand how the combination of these genetic variants may influence cardiovascular diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metalloproteinase inhibition ameliorates hypertension and prevents vascular dysfunction and remodeling in renovascular hypertensive rats.

Michele M. Castro, +7 more
- 01 Jun 2008 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that MMP-2 plays a role in 2K-1C hypertension and its structural and functional vascular changes, which were attenuated by doxycycline.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitric oxide formation is inversely related to serum levels of antiangiogenic factors soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 and soluble endogline in preeclampsia.

Valeria C. Sandrim, +5 more
TL;DR: The negative correlations between markers of NO formation and antiangiogenic factors in preeclamptic patients suggest an inhibitory effect for these factors on NO formation, and clinical evidence for impaired NO formation is shown.
