Redox sensor and effector functions of tetrahydrobiopterin and the mitochondria in molecular models of cardiovascular disease
<p>Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH<sub>4</sub>) is a redox active molecule that is essential for the production of nitric oxide (NO) by the NO synthase (NOS) enzymes. Loss of endothelial BH<sub>4</sub> leads to decreased NO and increased superoxide generation by endothelial NOS...
