Diet and Endothelial Function [PDF]
Biological Research, 2004 Endothelial dysfunction is one of the earliest events in atherogenesis. A consequence of endothelial damage is a lower availability of nitric oxide (NO), the most potent endogenous vasodilator.

Vascular Endothelial Function in Periodontal Disease: Role of Inflammation [PDF]
Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular DiseasePeriodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory condition of the periodontal tissues, encompassing pathologies such as gingivitis and periodontitis. It has been shown that these conditions not only lead to localized inflammation but also have systemic ...

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2017 The endothelium plays important roles in modulating vascular tone by synthesizing and releasing a variety of endothelium-derived relaxing factors, including vasodilator prostaglandins, NO, and endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization factors, as well as endothelium-derived contracting factors.

Circulation, 2002 The endothelium regulates vascular homeostasis by elaborating a variety of paracrine factors that act locally in the blood vessel wall and lumen.1 Under normal conditions, the sum total effect of these endothelial factors is to maintain normal vascular tone, blood fluidity, and limit vascular inflammation and smooth muscle cell proliferation.

Double-Stranded RNA Attenuates the Barrier Function of Human Pulmonary Artery Endothelial Cells [PDF]
, 2013 Circulating RNA may result from excessive cell damage or acute viral infection and can interact with vascular endothelial cells. Despite the obvious clinical implications associated with the presence of circulating RNA, its pathological effects on ...
