The Nitric Oxide System in Peripheral Artery Disease: Connection with Oxidative Stress and Biopterins

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) pathophysiology extends beyond hemodynamics to include other operating mechanisms, including endothelial dysfunction. Oxidative stress may be linked to endothelial dysfunction by reducing nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability. We aimed to investigate whether the NO system...
