Comparison of mechanisms involved in impaired vascular reactivity between high sucrose and high fat diets in rats

"Oxidative stress diminishes vasodilatory responsiveness in HSD and HFD rats through ROS-mediated scavenging of NO and decreased smooth
muscle sensitivity to NO. Inflammation also plays a significant role in the impaired vasodilation."
