PO-20 A HYDROGEN SULFIDE PRODRUG AUGMENTS ANGIOGENESIS IN A SWINE MODEL OF CRITICAL LIMB ISCHEMIA VIA A NITRIC OXIDE DEPENDENT MECHANISM

Introduction: Despite advances in revascularization, treatments for critical limb ischemia (CLI) have been largely unsuccessful. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and nitric oxide (NO), are endogenous gasotransmitters which exert potent vasodilatory and proangiogenic effects. Recent experimental evidence sugge...
