MnSOD protects against COX1-mediated endothelial dysfunction in chronic heart failure

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2010
Endothelial function is impaired by oxidative stress in chronic heart failure (HF). Mechanisms that protect against increases in oxidative stress in HF are not clear. The goal of this study was to determine whether manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) plays a key role in protecting against endothelial dysfunction in HF. Endothelial function and gene
