Hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) is an important mediator in the vasculature, but its role in the regulation of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) activity and expression is not completely understood. The aim of this study was to test the effect of H(2)O(2) on sGC expression and function and to explore the molecular mechanism involved.
