Key result
Acute exposure to glucose caused a progressive and concentration-dependent attenuation of detectable nitric oxide through a covalent reaction, promoting chemical inactivation of NO.
Why the study?
Does acute glucose exposure reduce nitric oxide bioavailability in endothelial cells and in vitro models?
Does acute glucose exposure reduce nitric oxide bioavailability in endothelial cells and in vitro models?
Hyperglycemia promotes the chemical inactivation of nitric oxide, providing a mechanistic link to endothelial dysfunction and hypertension in diabetes.

May link acute hyperglycemia to endothelial NO loss; hypothesis-generating for diabetes-related vascular dysfunction.
Brodsky et al. (2001) studied Endothelial dysfunction in diabetes mellitus. Glucose was evaluated on Nitric oxide (NO) generation and concentration. Acute exposure to glucose caused a progressive and concentration-dependent attenuation of detectable nitric oxide through a covalent reaction, promoting chemical inactivation of NO.
