In general, endothelial dysfunction can be treated. Treatments include life style modifications, certain medications such as Statins or vasodilators (of the ACE-Inhibitor or ARB families) which can improve or even reverse endothelial dysfunction. There are several new lines of drugs investigated by Pharma companies to treat endothelial dysfunction and its underlying causes

What is the link between endothelial dysfunction and heart disease?
Endothelial dysfunction is associated with most cardiovascular diseases, especially coronary artery disease, which can lead to a heart attack. Endothelial dysfunction is considered to be an early marker of coronary artery disease as it usually precedes it decades before any signs or symptoms appear. In fact, many investigators in the cardiovascular field view endothelial dysfunction as the disease whose clinical manifestation is cardiovascular disease.
What pathologies are associated with endothelial cell dysfunction?
Thrombosis, atherosclerosis, and hypertensive vascular lesions.
What is endothelial dysfunction?
Endothelial dysfunction is a process in which the endothelium secretes substances that promote atherosclerotic plaque build-up rather than the protective substances that prevent this build-up. It is the earliest detectable stage of cardiovascular disease. The good news is that this condition is treateble and even reversible.
What is the prognosis for people suffering from autonomic dysfunction?
The prognosis for persons suffering autonomic dysfunction is variable and depends on specific dysfunction and on the severity of the dysfunction. Autonomic dysfunctions can present as acute and reversible syndromes.
What has the author Shauna M Dauphinee written?
Shauna M. Dauphinee has written: 'Endothelial dysfunction and inflammation' -- subject(s): Diseases, Physiopathology, Vascular endothelium, Pathophysiology, Inflammation, Pathology, Endothelial Cells, Vascular Endothelium, Cardiovascular system
What is the difference between reversible and irreversible ischemia?
Reversible ischemia occurs when blood flow is temporarily restricted to an area, but the tissue is not permanently damaged and can recover if blood flow is restored quickly. Irreversible ischemia, on the other hand, results in permanent tissue damage due to prolonged lack of blood supply, leading to cell death and potentially organ dysfunction.
Is there a link between autism and endothelial dysfunction?
It is unknown how autism is linked to endothelial dysfunction but there is evidence that something is going on. A variation of the MET gene was more common in children the the GI form of autism.
