Rethinking Endothelial Dysfunction as a Crucial Target in Fighting Heart Failure
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 ...

Mechanisms and Clinical Implications of Endothelial Dysfunction in Arterial Hypertension
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 ...

Influence of hyperhomocysteinemia on the cellular redox state - Impact on homocysteine-induced endothelial dysfunction [PDF]
Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. An increasing body of evidence has implicated oxidative stress as being contributory to homocysteines deleterious effects on the vasculature.

Atrial Natriuretic Peptide Protects against Histamine-Induced Endothelial Barrier Dysfunction in Vivo [PDF]
Endothelial barrier dysfunction is a hallmark of many severe pathologies, including sepsis or atherosclerosis. The cardiovascular hormone atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) has increasingly been suggested to counteract endothelial leakage.

Angiotensin II impairs endothelial function via tyrosine phosphorylation of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase [PDF]
Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (PYK2) can be activated by angiotensin II (Ang II) and reactive oxygen species. We report that in endothelial cells, Ang II enhances the tyrosine phosphorylation of endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) in an AT1-, H2O2-, and PYK2-

INSULIN RESISTANCE AND ENDOTHELIAL DYSFUNCTION IN RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS [PDF]
Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease, in which, besides articular involvement, cardiovascular complications due to premature and accelerated atherosclerosis represent a serious problem.

Experimental models for vascular endothelial dysfunction
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 ...
