Popis: | We appreciate Dr Tsuda’s comments and observations on the involvement of nitric oxide in leptin-induced endothelial dysfunction and cardiac failure. We agree with Dr Tsuda that similar mechanisms might occur in neonatal leptin–treated rats. Because endothelial dysfunction represents an early form of vascular disease that precedes other cardiovascular complications, the role of neonatal leptin on endothelial function may provide valuable … |
