Relationship of diastolic blood pressure with cyclic GMP excretion among young adults (the CARDIA Study): influence of a family history of hypertension. Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults.

J Hypertens 15(9):955-62 (1997) PMID 9321742

Guanosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) is the second messenger of nitric oxide and atrial natriuretic factor, and mediates local vasodilatation. These vasodilatory factors are important in blood pressure regulation and possibly in the etiology of hypertension. Urinary cGMP levels among normotensive young adults have not previously been studied.

    We have demonstrated the neuroprotection of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) against chemical hypoxia-induced injury by inhibiting p38MAPK pathway. The present study attempts to evaluate the effect of H2S on chemical hypoxia-induced inflammation responses and its mechanisms in PC12 cells. We found that treatm...
