Arginase 1 mediates increased blood pressure and contributes to vascular endothelial dysfunction in deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertension

Enhanced arginase (ARG) activity has been identified as a factor that reduces nitric oxide (NO) production and impairs endothelial function in vascular pathologies. Using a gene deletion model, we investigated involvement of arginase isoforms (1 and 2) in hypertension and endothelial dysfunction in...
