Proposed mechanism of TERT in regulating balance of endothelial mitochondrial ROS and NO to maintain FMD in human microvessels. AGS 499 indicates telomeres activator; ATP, adenosine triphosphate; CAD, coronary artery disease; FMD, flow-mediated dilation; H2O2, hydrogen peroxide; mt, mitochondrial; nuc, nuclear; NAD+, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide; NO, nitric oxide; O2–·, superoxide; ROS, reactive oxygen species; and TERT, catalytic subunit of human telomerase complex.
