Manipulation of the Sphingolipid Rheostat Influences the Mediator of Flow‐Induced Dilation in the Human Microvasculature
Background Elevated levels of ceramide, a sphingolipid known to cause a transition from nitric oxide (NO)– to hydrogen peroxide–dependent flow‐induced dilation (FID) in human arterioles, correlate with adverse cardiac events. However, elevations of ceramide are associated with changed concentrations...
