Pilot Study of Organic Nitrates on Endothelial Function in CAD Patients (ONEEF)

December 10, 2009 updated by: Julius-Maximilians University

Pilot Study of Organic Nitrates on Endothelial Progenitor Cells and Endothelial Function in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

Organic nitrates increase levels of circulating endothelial progenitor cells (Thum et al., Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol. 2007 Apr;27(4):748-54). Here, we want to test the effects of two different organic nitrates (PETN, ISDN) on number and function of endothelial progenitor cells and endothelial function.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

In this pilot study we test the effects of two different organic nitrates (PETN, ISDN) on number and function of endothelial progenitor cells and endothelial function. These parameters will be measured before and after 14d of treatment.
