Hypercholesterolemia‐Induced Loss of Flow‐Induced Vasodilation and Lesion Formation in Apolipoprotein E–Deficient Mice Critically Depend on Inwardly Rectifying K(+) Channels
BACKGROUND: Hypercholesterolemia‐induced decreased availability of nitric oxide (NO) is a major factor in cardiovascular disease. We previously established that cholesterol suppresses endothelial inwardly rectifying K(+) (Kir) channels and that Kir2.1 is an upstream mediator of flow‐induced NO produ...
