CYBB and Hypertension: In this study, our finding that transverse aortic banding impairs endothelium-dependent dilatation in right-sided (hypertensive) cerebral arterioles in WT mice, but not in Nox2-/y mice, suggests that superoxide derived from Nox2-containing NADPH oxidase may play an important role in altered endothelium-dependent function in cerebral arterioles during hypertension.
