Novel organic nitrates are potent dilators of large coronary arteries with reduced development of tolerance during long-term infusion in dogs: role of the sulfhydryl moiety

The vasodilator action of organic nitrates can be severely impaired by induction of drug tolerance. A critical depletion of sulfhydryl groups has been proposed to play a key role in impairment of the biotransformation of organic nitrates to nitric oxide (NO). We studied the effects of the new cystei...
