Compositions and methods of modulating S-nitrosylation
A method of treating cardiovascular disorders and diseases in a subject in need thereof includes administering to the subject an ADH inhibitor, AKR inhibitor, and/or SNO-CoAR inhibitor at an amount(s) effective to promote S-nitrosylation of proteins in the subject, wherein the ADH inhibitor and/or SNO-CoAR inhibitor is not an ADH3 inhibitor.
