[Oxygen radicals and hypertension].
The Author reviews the problem, starting with a short introduction about oxygen free radicals. He discusses the vascular factor, emphasizing the importance of several known relaxants, EDRF, prostacyclin, monooxigenated arachidonate derivatives, ANF, hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical. He analyses the involvement of free radicals in kidney damage and presents evidence for their formation during cerebral vascular accidents.
