Description
BACKGROUND: Vascular endothelial dysfunction is one of the earliest recognizable events under hyperglycemic conditions. It is characterized by decreased endothelium-derived nitric oxide (NO) and increased oxidative stress, such as superoxide and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). However, the real-time changes in blood NO and H2O2 levels under acute hyperglycemia have not been evaluated.
