Ouabain‐induced hypertension in rats: Mechanisms, variability and translational implications

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ouabain‐induced hypertension is a multifactorial and condition‐dependent phenomenon involving coordinated actions across vascular, renal and central nervous system pathways. At the vascular level, ouabain inhibits Na⁺/K⁺‐ATPase, particularly the α2‐isoform, leading to elevated intracellular Ca2⁺, enhanced vasoconstriction and structural ...

Unraveling the Mechanism of Impaired Osteogenic Differentiation in Osteoporosis: Insights from ADRB2 Gene Polymorphism

open access: yesCells
Osteoporosis is characterized by increased resorption and decreased bone formation; it is predominantly influenced by genetic factors. G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a vital role in bone homeostasis, and mutations in these genes are associated ...

The skeletal muscle–adipose creatine metabolic axis: A novel paradigm for lipid metabolism reprogramming and obesity management

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The global prevalence of obesity and related metabolic disorders has spurred interdisciplinary research to develop new intervention strategies. Current research is increasingly focusing on the exercise‐induced browning of white adipose tissue and the mechanisms by which it improves energy metabolism.

When rehabilitation is not enough, how targeting metabolism can overcome the limited plasticity of skeletal muscle after traumatic injury

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract There is a category of large‐scale neuromusculoskeletal injuries that result in long‐term functional disabilities, and one such injury is volumetric muscle loss (VML) injury. In addition to the clinical outcomes related to long‐term dysfunction, co‐morbidities and reduced mobility and physical activity, this review addresses several ...

Impaired nitric oxide‐dependent endothelial function in young male individuals with obesity before the onset of symptoms and complications

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Endothelial dysfunction drives obesity‐related complications. Doppler ultrasound measurement of blood flow during 1‐min passive leg movements (PLM) is a valuable non‐invasive tool for assessing endothelial function and nitric oxide (NO)‐mediated vasodilation.

Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...

Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes: Pathophysiological mechanisms and opportunities for multiscale computational modelling and simulation

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Overview of multiscale cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes and how to model and simulate these changes using a human‐based, multiscale computational framework. Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes occurs at ionic channel, protein, cellular, tissue and whole‐organ level, affecting the electrophysiological function, mechanical
