Ricevimento studenti: Cardiologia 3° piano, martedì ore 12:00 - 13:00
Attività di ricerca: Prof. Cosentino has investigated the role of endothelium-derived nitric oxide (NO) as a regulator of vascular tone and more recently he has investigated the signal transduction pathways involved in hyperglycemia-induced endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress.
