Asymmetrical dimethylarginine, oxidative stress, and atherosclerosis.
Asymmetrical Dimethylarginine, Oxidative Stress, and Atherosclerosis To the Editor: Antoniades et al1 reported on the role of asymmetrical dimethylarginine (ADMA) in inflammation-induced endothelial dysfunction in healthy subjects and in patients with coronary artery disease or rheumatoid arthritis. In patients with chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases, serum nitrite concentrations were lowe...
متن کاملOxidative stress and atherosclerosis.
Understanding of the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis can provide new strategies for the prevention and treatment of patients with this common disease. Clinical, epidemiologic, and basic molecular science studies have identified oxidative stress as a factor contributing to the development and progression of atherosclerosis. Oxidative stress also participates in the pathogenesis of endothelial...
متن کاملAsymmetrical dimethylarginine: the Uber marker?
The traditional risk factors of hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and tobacco exposure identify a subset of patients at greater cardiovascular risk. A variety of clinical phenotypes, biochemical markers, and genetic polymorphisms have been proposed to explain the variance in risk not explained by the traditional factors. Notably, all of the traditional risk factors, as well...
متن کاملUCP2, oxidative stress and atherosclerosis
Vascular dysfunction in response to reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays an important role in the development and progression of atherosclerotic lesions. In most cells, mitochondria are the major source of cellular ROS during aerobic respiration. Under most conditions the rates of ROS formation and elimination are balanced through mechanisms that sense relative ROS levels. However, a chronic imb...
متن کاملAtherosclerosis, Inflammation and Oxidative Stress
Atherosclerosis is a focal disease of the arterial wall that leads to cardiovascular disease (CVD), the biggest cause of morbidity and mortality in Western societies. CVD, a group of disorders of the heart and the vasculature, includes atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, congestive heart failure, stroke and congenital heart defects. The World Health Organization report...
