NITRITE INCREASES MITOFUSIN-1 LEVELS TO INHIBIT VASCULAR SMOOTH MUSCLE CELL PROLIFERATION AND PREVENT INTIMAL HYPERPLASIA
2026-01-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Vascular disease remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality and is driven by maladaptive vascular remodeling following injury. Stent-induced vascular injury induces vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) phenotypic switching from a contractile to a proliferative state, resulting in intimal hyperplasia (IH), restenosis and compromised vessel function. Nitrite, an endogenous oxidation product...
