MTS mimetic induces pathological H2O2 mediated dilation, while NLS mimetic restores physiological NO-mediated dilation. (A) Treatment of vessels from non-CAD subjects with the TERT MTS mimetic peptide induces a CAD like phenotype for FMD (Peg-catalase inhibitable), (B) while treatment with TERT NLS mimetic has no effect. (C) Treatment of vessels from subjects with CAD with TERT NLS mimetic is sufficient to restore FMD to NO (L-NAME mediated). (D) Endothlial indepedent dilation to papaverine was not alterd in any groups. * P < 0.05 2-way ANOVA RM, N = 6–11.
