Stimulation of Tetrahydrobiopterin Synthesis by 17β-Estradiol in Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells
The purpose of this study was to examine whether 17β-estradiol stimulates the synthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin : BH4), which is one of the cofactors of nitric oxide (NO) synthase, in mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells. Addition of 17()-estradiol to endothelial cells time- and concentration-...
