Recurrent hypokalemia and hypotension with unspecified cause in pregnancy: a warning sign of rare antenatal Barrter syndrome

open access: yesArterial Hypertension
BACKGROUND: Hypokalemia is a frequent clinical disorder characterized by potassium levels under 3.5 mmol/L. In some cases, the cause can be challenging to be identified, resulting in suboptimal therapy.

Tissue Sodium Content and Arterial Hypertension in Obese Adolescents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Early-onset obesity is known to culminate in type 2 diabetes, arterial hypertension and subsequent cardiovascular disease. The role of sodium (Na+) homeostasis in this process is incompletely understood, yet correlations between Na+ accumulation and ...

Microphysiological Uremia Model Reveals Biophysical Potentiators of Vascular Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A microfluidic platform of engineered blood vessels is developed to study the role of mechanical forces in immune cell adhesion and extravasation in uremic microenvironments. Elevated pressure increases monocyte activity, with ICAM‐1 as a key driver. Matrix density influences monocyte phenotypes, but the uremic environment consistently promoted a pro ...

Stable isotope metabolomics of pulmonary artery smooth muscle and endothelial cells in pulmonary hypertension and with TGF-beta treatment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Altered metabolism in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and endothelial cells (PAECs) contributes to the pathology of pulmonary hypertension (PH), but changes in substrate uptake and how substrates are utilized have not been fully ...

Persistent Vascular Collagen Accumulation Alters Hemodynamic Recovery from Chronic Hypoxia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is caused by narrowing and stiffening of the pulmonary arteries that increase pulmonary vascular impedance (PVZ). In particular, small arteries narrow and large arteries stiffen. Large pulmonary artery (PA) stiffness

Parasubthalamic Glutamatergic Neurons Coordinate Cardiovascular Homeostasis and Locomotion in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
PSTNVglut2 neurons function as a new central baroreflex hub via projections to the NTS, modulating parasympathetic cardiac output to maintain cardiovascular homeostasis while synchronously regulating locomotion. Blood pressure fluctuations negatively correlate with locomotor performance.
