Interaction between coronary artery stenosis and coronary microcirculation in ischemic heart disease

open access: yes, 2000
The hallmark of ischemic heart disease is the presence of focal obstructions in the major coronary arteries. Classically, epicardial stenoses are thought to exert their pathogenetic role mainly through a limitation on maximal flow capacity in the distal ...

Decreased coronary flow reserve in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is related to remodeling of the coronary microcirculation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
BACKGROUND: Ischemia occurs frequently in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) without evidence of epicardial stenosis. This study evaluates the hypothesis that the occurrence of ischemia in HCM is related to remodeling of the coronary ...

The short-chain fatty acid propionate prevents ox-LDL-induced coronary microvascular dysfunction by alleviating endoplasmic reticulum stress in HCMECs.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is a critical pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. Lower endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) phosphorylation leads to reduced endothelium-derived relaxing factor nitric oxide (NO) generation, causing and ...

Calcium‐activated chloride channels in pericytes and their role in regulating organ blood flow

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pericytes are microvascular mural cells with diverse roles. Contractile pericytes directly regulate local perfusion, while non‐contractile pericytes coordinate upstream vascular contractility via propagating electrical signals.

Energetic microdomains and the vascular control of neuronal and muscle excitability: Toward a unified model

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The capillary–mitochondria–ion channel (CMIC) axis scales structural resources to match functional workload. (Left) In settings of restricted energetic capacity (e.g. cortical neurons), sparse capillary networks and modest mitochondrial pools set a lower energetic ceiling, sufficient to support phasic, low‐workload excitability.

Demonstration of beat‐to‐beat, on‐demand ATP synthesis in ventricular myocytes reveals sex‐specific mitochondrial and cytosolic dynamics

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Beat‐locked mitochondrial ATP transients reveal modular, sex‐specific bioenergetic control during excitation–contraction coupling. A, each action potential activates L‐type CaV1.2 channels, producing a Ca2+ influx that triggers ryanodine receptors (RyR2) and elicits SR Ca2+ release.

Reduced cardiovascular mortality at moderate altitude: a putative role of physical activity and body mass

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Benefits of performing physical exercise at moderate altitude. At moderate altitude, increased resting metabolic rate and physical exertion promote physical fitness and exercise tolerance, whereas hypoxia suppresses appetite and elicits adaptations that increase tissue O2 delivery while augmenting O2‐independent ATP production ...

Adipose‐derived small extracellular vesicles exacerbate microvascular dysfunction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction via mmu‐miR‐582‐3p‐mediated Rap1b suppression

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterized by diastolic dysfunction despite a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction, and visceral adipose tissue is implicated in its pathogenesis.

Impaired Coronary Microcirculation and Myocardial Systolic Function: A Narrative Review on Non-Invasive Assessment in Cardiovascular Diseases

open access: yesLife
Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is presently recognized as a condition characterized by a reduction in coronary blood flow. CMD is associated with poor cardiac outcomes, and mounting evidence suggests that coronary microcirculation may be ...
