Brief Summary:
Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), a metabolite produced by gut microbial metabolism of dietary choline, has recently been causally linked to atherosclerosis in animal models and has been shown to be predictive of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in some but not all cohort studies. The relevance of observations in animals to humans is unclear and little information is available on the mechanisms linking TMAO to increased CVD risk. Vascular dysfunction plays a critical role in the initiation and progression of atherothrombotic disease. Whether TMAO impairs vascular function in humans is not known. The purpose of this study is to determine if short term supplementation of dietary choline, which increase TMAO, impairs vascular function.
