Unravelling the Intricate Relationship Between Oxidative Stress and Endothelial Dysfunction in Hypertension.

Introduction: Hypertension (HTN), a leading risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, is intricately linked with endothelial dysfunction, a hallmark of vascular pathology. The effect of oxidative stress in maintaining the optimum endothelial function in the regulation of blood pressure is yet to be explored. While numerous factors contribute to the pathogenesis of HTN, emerging evidence highlights the pivotal role of oxidative stress in endothelial dysfunction, offering novel insights into the underlying mechanisms.
