Aldosterone impairs vascular reactivity by decreasing glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity
Article Abstract:
The decrease in the endothelial glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) expression and activity in vitro by aldosterone has resulted in increased oxidant stress and decreased bioavaliable nitric oxide (NO) levels. The results have shown that aldosterone has induced a G6PD-deficient phenotype to impair endothelial function.
