Does selective endothelin-A receptor antagonism prevent prolonged endothelial dysfunction induced by mental stress?
Selective endothelin-A receptor antagonism prevents mental stress-induced prolonged endothelial dysfunction, providing a novel link to atherosclerotic vascular disease.
Mental stress induces prolonged endothelial dysfunction, which is prevented by selective endothelin-A receptor antagonism. This represents a novel and important link between mental stress and atherosclerotic vascular disease.
Spieker et al. (2002) studied this question.
