Endothelial Phenotype Evoked by Low Dose Carvedilol in Pulmonary Hypertension
Background: The therapeutic benefits of β-blockers are well established in left heart failure. The Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Treatment with Carvedilol for Heart Failure [PAHTCH] study showed safety and possible benefit of carvedilol in pulmonary ...

Smad3 inactivation and MiR-29b upregulation mediate the effect of carvedilol on attenuating the acute myocardium infarction-induced myocardial fibrosis in rat. [PDF]
Carvedilol, a nonselective β-adrenoreceptor antagonist, protects against myocardial injury induced by acute myocardium infarction (AMI). The mechanisms underlying the anti-fibrotic effects of carvedilol are unknown.

Electrospinning Using AC Electric Fields
This review covers the state‐of‐the‐art of process of alternating field electrospinning (AFES, a.k.a. AC‐electrospinning). Although tremendous progress is achieved in the development of AC‐electrospinning over the last 10 years, this technique remains uncommon. The synopses of AFES process concepts, parameters, spinneret designs, benefits and obstacles,

Ambulatory intra-arterial blood pressure recording provides a precise and objective method for the study of antihypertensive drugs and their effects on blood pressure. Application of this technique has shown that beta-adrenoceptor-blocking drugs are only effective during the day when the subject is active.

Recent Developments in the Optical Control of Adrenergic Signaling
ABSTRACT Adrenoceptors (ARs) play a vital role in various physiological processes and are key therapeutic targets. The advent of optical control techniques, including optogenetics and photopharmacology, offers the potential to modulate AR signaling with precise temporal and spatial resolution. In this review, we summarize the latest advancements in the

Selecting the primary endpoint in a randomized clinical trial: the ARE method [PDF]
The decision on the primary endpoint in a randomized clinical trial is of paramount importance and the combination of several endpoints might be a reasonable choice. Gómez and Lagakos (2013) have developed a method that quantifies how much more efficient
