Objectives The aim of this study is to generate hypotheses about unknown drugs associated with the onset or worsening of Raynaud's Phenomenon (RP) and to explore their potential pathophysiological mechanisms through a mixed disproportionality/clustering analysis from the WHO pharmacovigilance database.

In vitro analysis of SERCA2 gene regulation in hypertrophic cardiomyocytes and increasing transfection efficiency by gene-gun biolistics [PDF]
The transcriptional downregulation of the SERCA2 gene is studied using neonatal rat cardiomyocytes stimulated with endothelin-1 to induce hypertrophy. Liposome-based transfection of cells with a 1.9 kb SERCA2 promoter fragment directed expression of a ...

Endothelin-1 in cardiovascular physiology [PDF]
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a 21 amino acid peptide endowed with a powerful vasoconstrictor activity. The molecular structure and biological activities of endothelin were explored in several studies starting soon after its discovery in 1988, but only recently has the availability of specific ET-1 antagonists allowed its physiological activities to be ...

ABSTRACT Coronary slow flow (SF) and no‐reflow (NR) are clinically significant complications of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), particularly in ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and saphenous vein graft (SVG) interventions. Angiographically defined as impaired myocardial perfusion despite restored epicardial patency, SF/NR ...

Microvascular alterations in hypertension and vascular aging [PDF]
Hypertension and aging are characterized by vascular remodelling and stiffness as well as endothelial dysfunction. Endothelial function declines with age, since aging is associated with senescence of the endothelium due to increased rate of apoptosis and

Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient cell population that emerges from the dorsal neural tube during neurulation and migrates extensively throughout the embryo. Among their diverse derivatives, glial cells (such as Schwann and satellite ganglionic cells) and melanocytes represent two major lineages. In vitro studies suggested they share a common

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Development of an ex vivo model for the study of cerebrovascular function utilizing isolated mouse olfactory artery [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Cerebral vessels, such as intracerebral perforating arterioles isolated from rat brain, have been widely used as an ex vivo model to study the cerebrovascular function associated with cerebrovascular disorders and the therapeutic effects of ...

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy
Abstract Cardiac remodelling is a key determinant of worse cardiovascular outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It affects both the left ventricle (LV) structure and function as well as the left atrium (LA) and the right ventricle (RV).

Truncated human endothelin receptor A produced by alternative splicing and its expression in melanoma [PDF]
In this study, reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction was used to amplify human endothelin receptor A (ETA) and ETB receptor mRNA. A truncated ETA receptor transcript with exons 3 and 4 skipped was found.
