Vasodilator reactive oxygen species ameliorate perturbed myocardial oxygen delivery in exercising swine with multiple co...
...
Multiple common cardiovascular comorbidities produce coronary microvascular dysfunction. We previously observed in swine that a combination of diabetes mellitus (DM), high fat diet (HFD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) induced systemic inflammation, increased oxidative stress and produced coronary endothelial dysfunction, altering control of coron...
