Abstract
We performed correction of endothelial dysfunction with phenol derivatives KUD-259 and KUD-974 containing heteroatomic and heterocyclic structures. Pharmacological activity of KUD-259 and KUD-974 surpassed that of L-norvaline, a non-selective arginase inhibitor.
Keywords:
L-NAME; L-norvaline; arginase; modeled endothelial dysfunction; nitric oxide.
