Hyperuricemia enhances intracellular urate accumulation via down-regulation of cell-surface BCRP/ABCG2 expression in vascular endothelial cells

Hyperuricemia has been recognized as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Urate stimulates NADPH oxidase and induces production of reactive oxygen species (ROS); consequently, intracellular urate accumulation can induce oxidative stress leading to endothelial dysfunction. Here, we...
