Background/Objectives: Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is a cofactor for nitric oxide synthase (NOS). Oxidative stress, reported in black populations (1), may lead to the oxidation of BH4, the uncoupling of eNOS, decreased NO and increased superoxide level

OBJECTIVES AND METHODS Hypertension is a growing health concern in childhood populations and individuals of African descent. As the kidneys play a significant role in blood pressure regulation, we compared alpha-1 microglobulin (A1M) as a marker of p
