Abstract excerpt
Obesity induces inflammation and oxidative stress, and ultimately leads to vasodilatory dysfunction in which Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 4 (TRPV4) and Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Oxidase (Nox2) have been reported to be involved. However, little attention has been paid to the role of the TRPV4-Nox2 complex in these problems. The purpose of this study was to figure out the role of...
