  • Nitrate agents (nitroglycerin preparations, etc.) have been considered to be effective as exogenous NO donors for treating angina, heart failure or the like among the above diseases, but they show tolerance over long-term use. Namely, thiol groups (SH groups) become depleted during long-term use of nitrate agents, because SH groups are indispensable for NO production from these nitrate agents. Moreover, the balance of other endogenous substances may be disturbed during long-term use, because NO production requires metabolic enzymes and other NO-related materials such as nitrosothiol are produced during the reaction.

  • a decrease in BP in urine was also observed in this model rats.
  • oral administration of BH4 suppressed the rise in blood pressure and led to an increase of NO 2 /NO 3 in urine and an increase of NOS expression in renal tissues, indicating that BH4 is useful for the treatment of diseases caused by decreased endogenous NO production through activating the function of NOS (through regulation of NOS level/ NOS activity).
