Improvement of endothelial function by chronic angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition in heart failure : Role of nitric oxide, prostanoids, oxidant stress, and bradykinin

BACKGROUND-Chronic heart failure (CHF) impairs the endothelium-dependent, flow-mediated dilation (FMD) of small arteries. However, whether chronic angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition affects the impairment of FMD in CHF is unknown. We investigated the effects of long-term ACE inhibition o...
