P4 Aldosterone-Induced Vascular Dysfunction by Decreasing Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2–Related Factor 2 Activity and Increasing Reactive Oxygen Species Generation
Introduction: Chronic increases in aldosterone (Aldo) levels (hyperaldosteronism) increases blood pressure and induces hypertension. In the cardiovascular system, Aldo stimulates reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. ROS contribute to vascular dysfunction by increasing vascular smooth muscle con...
