Arms Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: Isosorbide- A
Subjects received Isosorbide Dinitrate 5 mg po after receiving Bradykinin and LNMMA. The Bradykinin and LNMMA is then repeated
Drug: Isosorbide
Will use a non invasive measurement of endothelial function for first five minutes of the study. After arterial line and intravenous line placement; subject is given Aspirin 325 mg. After 30 minute rest period, a measurement of basal forearm bloodflow is obtained. After measurement, Bradykinin will be infused at 50, 100 and 200 ng/min. Each dose will be infused for 5 minutes and blood samples will be obtained. After a 30 minute rest period, LNMMA (12 umol/min) will be infused for 10 minutes and Bradykinin will be repeated. Blood samples will be obtained after each dose. Subjects will then be given IDSN 5 mg. One hour later, the LNMMA and Bradykinin infusion will be repeated and blood samples obtained.
Other Names:
  • Bradykin
  • LNMMA
  • Isosorbide dinitrate
Active Comparator: Sildenafil - B
Subjects received Sildenafil after receiving Bradykinin and LNMMA. After 1 hour, Bradykinin and LNMMA is repeated.
Drug: Sildenafil
Will use a non invasive measurement of endothelial function for first five minutes of the study.After arterial line and intravenous line placement; subject is given Aspirin 325 mg. After 30 minute rest period, a measurement of basal forearm bloodflow is obtained. After measurement, Bradykinin will be infused at 50, 100 and 200 ng/min. Each dose will be infused for 5 minutes and blood samples will be obtained. After a 30 minute rest period, LNMMA (12 umol/min) will be infused for 10 minutes and Bradykinin will be repeated. Blood samples will be obtained after each dose. Subjects will then be given Sildenafil 50 mg. One hour later, the LNMMA and Bradykinin infusion will be repeated and blood samples obtained.
Other Names:
  • Sildenafil
  • LNMMA
  • Bradykinin

Detailed Description:

To test the hypothesis that the administration of the NO donor isosorbide dinitrate,but not the phosphodiesterase inhibitor sildenafil, will attenuate stimulated vascular t-PA release during ACE inhibition whereas both agents will improve glucose uptake.
