Rethinking Endothelial Dysfunction as a Crucial Target in Fighting Heart Failure

open access: yesMayo Clinic Proceedings: Innovations, Quality & Outcomes, 2019
Endothelial dysfunction is characterized by nitric oxide dysregulation and an altered redox state. Oxidative stress and inflammatory markers prevail, thus promoting atherogenesis and hypertension, important risk factors for the development and ...

Association between periodontitis and vascular endothelial function using noninvasive medical device—A pilot study

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Dental Research, 2020
The present study aimed to assess the relationship between periodontal condition and endothelial function using a noninvasive device. Many recent studies have reported associations between periodontitis and cardiovascular diseases.

SIRT1 Activation Attenuates the Cardiac Dysfunction Induced by Endothelial Cell-Specific Deletion of CRIF1

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
The CR6-interacting factor1 (CRIF1) mitochondrial protein is indispensable for peptide synthesis and oxidative phosphorylation. Cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of CRIF1 showed impaired mitochondrial function and cardiomyopathy.

Mechanisms and Clinical Implications of Endothelial Dysfunction in Arterial Hypertension

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022
The endothelium is composed of a monolayer of endothelial cells, lining the interior surface of blood and lymphatic vessels. Endothelial cells display important homeostatic functions, since they are able to respond to humoral and hemodynamic stimuli ...

Endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 1997
Mammalian endothelium acts as a mediator in arterial and venous relaxation and contraction. Endothelium-dependent relaxation is due to endothelial release of powerful, non-prostanoid vasodilatory substances. The best known of these is the endothelial factor EDRF identified as nitrous oxide (NO).

Endothelial Dysfunction in Diabetes [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2020
Diabetes is a worldwide health issue closely associated with cardiovascular events. Given the pandemic of obesity, the identification of the basic underpinnings of vascular disease is strongly needed. Emerging evidence has suggested that endothelial dysfunction is a critical step in the progression of atherosclerosis.

INSULIN RESISTANCE AND ENDOTHELIAL DYSFUNCTION IN RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Rheumatology, 2016
Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease, in which, besides articular involvement, cardiovascular complications due to premature and accelerated atherosclerosis represent a serious problem.

Endothelial dysfunction in diabetes [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2000
Endothelial dysfunction plays a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic vascular disease. The endothelium controls the tone of the underlying vascular smooth muscle through the production of vasodilator mediators. The endothelium‐derived relaxing factors (EDRF) comprise nitric oxide (NO), prostacyclin, and a still elusive endothelium‐derived ...

Experimental models for vascular endothelial dysfunction

open access: yesBangladesh Journal of Pharmacology, 2021
Vascular endothelial dysfunction is characterized by apoptosis of endothelial cells, an imbalance between vasoconstrictory and vasodilatory substances, the imbalance between ROS and antioxidants, vascular remodeling, loss of vascular integrity which ...

Hyperhomocysteinemia and Endothelial Dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Hypertension Reviews, 2009
Hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) is a significant and independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Endothelial dysfunction (ED) is the earliest indicator of atherosclerosis and vascular diseases. We and others have shown that HHcy induced ED in human and in animal models of HHcy induced by either high-methionine load or genetic deficiency.
