Endothelial Dysfunction in Diabetes [PDF]
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]
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]
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 ...

Association Between the Female Athlete Triad and Endothelial Dysfunction in Dancers [PDF]
Objective: To determine the prevalence of the 3 components of the female athlete triad [disordered eating, menstrual dysfunction, low bone mineral density (BMD)] and their relationships with brachial artery flow-mediated dilation in professional dancers.

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.

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 ...

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.

Hyperhomocysteinemia and Endothelial Dysfunction [PDF]
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.
