Endothelial dysfunction reversibility [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2007 Coronary artery disease, the leading cause of morbidity and mortality, is a continuum of events that can lead to end stage heart disease . Common to the pathogenesis of most cardiovascular diseases are the processes, called risk factors for atherosclerotic coronary artery disease, that cause pathologic change and dysfunction in the blood vessels and ...

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2004 Endothelial dysfunction is characterized by a shift of the actions of the endothelium toward reduced vasodilation, a proinflammatory state, and prothrombic properties. It is associated with most forms of cardiovascular disease, such as hypertension, coronary artery disease, chronic heart failure, peripheral artery disease, diabetes, and chronic renal ...

Mechanisms and Clinical Implications of Endothelial Dysfunction in Arterial Hypertension
Journal 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]
European 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).

INSULIN RESISTANCE AND ENDOTHELIAL DYSFUNCTION IN RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS [PDF]
Romanian 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]
British 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
Bangladesh 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]
Current 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.

Scientific Reports, 2018 Endothelial dysfunction contributes to sepsis outcome. Metabolic phenotypes associated with endothelial dysfunction are not well characterised in part due to difficulties in assessing endothelial metabolism in situ.

Endothelial Function in Dyslipidemia: Roles of LDL-Cholesterol, HDL-Cholesterol and Triglycerides
Cells, 2023 Dyslipidemia is associated with endothelial dysfunction. Endothelial dysfunction is the initial step for atherosclerosis, resulting in cardiovascular complications.
