Vascular Dysfunction in a Mouse Model of Rett Syndrome and Effects of Curcumin Treatment by Anna Panighini (414257)

“…Such functional aspects are associated with an intravascular increase in superoxide anion production, and a decreased vascular eNOS expression. These alterations are reversed by curcumin administration (5% (w/w) dietary curcumin for 21 days), which restores endothelial NO availability, decreases intravascular ROS production and normalizes vascular eNOS gene expression. …”
