To assess the correlation between endothelial dysfunction and the serum levels of biomarkers of inflammation, remodelling and oxidative stress in essential hypertension, 78 treatment-naive essential hypertensives (mean age 43 years) underwent measurement of endothelial dysfunction, using the maximal acetylcholine-induced forearm vasodilation and serum levels of adhesion molecules, selectins, chemokines, metalloproteinases, copper, zinc, selenium, vitamins, homocysteine, malondialdehyde, erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase and erythrocyte superoxide dismutase. Mean (+/- s.e.m.) maximal acetylcholine-induced vasodilation was 367 +/- 20%. Patients with a more impaired acetylcholine-dependent vasodilation (first tertile) had increased levels of e-selectin (P=0.009), p-selectin (P
