Hydrogen Sulphide Release via the Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor Zofenopril Prevents Intimal Hyperplasia in Human Vein Segments and in a Mouse Model of Carotid Artery Stenosis

Objective: Hypertension is a major risk factor for intimal hyperplasia (IH) and re-stenosis following vascular and endovascular interventions. Preclinical studies suggest that hydrogen sulphide (H2S), an endogenous gasotransmitter, limits re-stenosis. While there is no clinically available pure H2S...
