The nitric oxide-independent soluble guanylate cyclase activator ataciguat continued to show promise for slowing the progression of fibrocalcific aortic valve stenosis in phase I and II studies.
NO then reacts with guanylate cyclase in vascular smooth muscle to produce cGMP that reduces intracellular calcium concentrations resulting in relaxation of vascular smooth muscle and consequent ...
A novel therapeutic showed significant promise in slowing aortic valve calcification, potentially extending time until or eliminating need for transcatheter or surgical intervention for stenosis, ...
