    Abstract Flow-mediated skin fluorescence (FMSF) at 460 nm is a non-invasive method for assessing dynamic changes in the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and microcirculation in forearm skin under varying conditions of tissue perfusion. Typically, fluorescence increases during ischaemia, but atypical cases show a temporary signal decrease instead of a constant increase. This study aimed to explore the clinical implications of atypical FMSF patterns in patients with newly diagnosed untreated hypertension. NADH fluorescence and pulse wave analysis were performed on 65 patients. Differences in peripheral and arterial pulse pressure profiles were examined based on FMSF curve courses. Patients with atypical curve courses had significantly (

    Abstract The reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) is crucial in cellular metabolism. During hypoxia, NADH accumulation results from anaerobic cytoplasmic glycolysis and impaired mitochondrial function. This study aimed to compare the dynamic changes in the 460-nm forearm skin fluorescence, which reflects cellular NADH content, during transient ischaemia between healthy individuals and patients with newly diagnosed, untreated essential hypertension (HA). Sixteen healthy volunteers and sixty-five patients with HA underwent non-invasive measurement of forearm skin NADH content using the Flow Mediated Skin Fluorescence (FMSF) method at rest and during a 100-s transient ischaemia induced by inflation of the brachial cuff. The fluorescent signal was sampled at 25 Hz. All samples were normalised to the end of the ischaemic phase, which is the most stable phase of the whole recording. Slope values of 1 s linear regressions were determined for every 25-sample neighbouring set. The 1-s slopes in the early phase of skin ischaemia, indicating quicker hypoxia-induced NADH accumulation in skin, were significantly higher in patients with HA than in healthy individuals. These findings suggest that some protecting mechanisms postponing the early consequences of early cellular hypoxia and premature NADH accumulation during skin ischaemia are impaired in patients with untreated HA. Further studies are needed to investigate this phenomenon.

    Abstract Background: Some antihypertensive medications alter cellular energy production, presumably by modification of the mitochondrial function. In vivo studies of such effects are challenging in humans. We applied a noninvasive forearm skin measurement of the 460-nm fluorescence specific for the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) to study the 6-week effects of four different antihypertensive medications on mitochondrial function using the Flow-Mediated Skin Fluorescence (FMSF).
    Methods: In a prospective open-label study, we compared the long-term effects of a 6-week treatment with either amlodipine (5 mg), perindopril (5 mg), nebivolol (5 mg), or metoprolol (50 mg) on the dynamic flow-mediated changes in the skin NADH content in 76 patients (29 women) with untreated primary arterial hypertension (HA). Patients underwent 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. To study mitochondrial function, the FMSF was measured at rest, during 100-second ischemia and postischemic reperfusion. The control group consisted of 18 healthy people (7 women).
    Results: There were no significant differences in the FMSF parameters between the control and the study group before medication. After the 6-week treatment, all drugs similarly reduced blood pressure. Neither amlodipine, perindopril, nor nebivolol changed the flow-mediated 460-nm skin fluorescence significantly. However, metoprolol raised this fluorescence at rest, during ischemia and reperfusion (
    Conclusion: Amlodipine, perindopril, and nebivolol appear neutral for the skin NADH content during the 6-week antihypertensive treatment. Similar treatment with metoprolol increased skin NADH at rest, during ischemia and reperfusion, probably due to an effect on microcirculation and altered mitochondrial function. Explanation of the potential mechanisms behind metoprolol influence on the skin NADH metabolism requires further investigation.
