The relationship of nitric oxide synthesis capacity, oxidative stress, and albumin-to-creatinine ratio in black and white men: the SABPA study

Mels, Catharina M.C.; Huisman, Hugo W.; Smith, Wayne; Schutte, Rudolph; Schutte, Aletta E. (Springer, 2016)

Inadequate substrate availability and increased nitric oxide synthase inhibitor levels attenuate nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, whereas increased vascular oxidative stress may lead to inactivation of NO. We compared markers ...
Urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio is inversely related to nitric oxide synthesis in young black adults: the African-PREDICT study

Craig, Ashleigh; Mels, Catharina M.C.; Schutte, Aletta E.; Kruger, Ruan; Bollenbach, Alexander (Nature, 2020)

Hypertension is common in black populations and is known to be associated with low nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability. We compared plasma and urinary NO-related markers and plasma creatine kinase (CK) levels between young ...
