Is uric acid-induced endothelial dysfunction associated with mitochondrial alterations and decreased intracellular ATP concentrations?
UA-induced endothelial dysfunction is associated with mitochondrial alterations and decreased intracellular ATP. These studies provide additional evidence for a deleterious effect of UA on vascular function that could be important in the pathogenesis of hypertension and vascular disease.
We failed to confirm an earlier claim that circulating relaxin levels are related to pelvic girdle pain in pregnant women.
