Penile endothelial cell injury mainly produces erectile dysfunction, ejaculation disorder and other symptoms.
Penile endothelial cells are an important component of the corpus cavernosum. Vascular endothelial cells in the corpus cavernosum of the penis can release nitric oxide during sexual stimulation, and nitric oxide activates the guanylate cyclase enzyme in the cavernous smooth muscle cells, which makes the cavernous smooth muscle relax, and blood flows into the cavernous sinus to cause an erection.
When the endothelial cells are damaged, the ability to release nitric oxide is weakened or disappears, causing symptoms such as erectile dysfunction and ejaculatory disorders. Penile endothelial injury is mainly caused by metabolic abnormalities such as high blood sugar, high blood pressure, high blood fat and other diseases.
Patients with penile endothelial injury should go to the hospital in time, improve the examination, and give targeted treatment after clarifying the cause of the disease, so as to avoid further development of the condition.
