Human adaptation to high‐altitude: A contemporary comparison of the oxygen cascade in Andean, Tibetan and Ethiopian highlanders

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human populations native to high altitude have evolved distinct physiological adaptations to chronic hypoxia. This adaptation is evident in the O2 transport cascade. In this review, with brief inclusion of the related genetic adaptations, we compare the O2 cascade across three well‐characterized high‐altitude populations: Andeans (Aymara and ...

Exploring the nexus: Clinical and physiological correlation between cardiovascular disease and colorectal cancer

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, traditionally studied as distinct pathologies. However, emerging evidence suggests a significant physiological and molecular overlap between these conditions, indicating that they might share common pathophysiological pathways. The

Ouabain‐induced hypertension in rats: Mechanisms, variability and translational implications

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ouabain‐induced hypertension is a multifactorial and condition‐dependent phenomenon involving coordinated actions across vascular, renal and central nervous system pathways. At the vascular level, ouabain inhibits Na⁺/K⁺‐ATPase, particularly the α2‐isoform, leading to elevated intracellular Ca2⁺, enhanced vasoconstriction and structural ...

Impaired nitric oxide‐dependent endothelial function in young male individuals with obesity before the onset of symptoms and complications

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Endothelial dysfunction drives obesity‐related complications. Doppler ultrasound measurement of blood flow during 1‐min passive leg movements (PLM) is a valuable non‐invasive tool for assessing endothelial function and nitric oxide (NO)‐mediated vasodilation.

The anti-atherogenic effects of thiazolidinediones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The thiazolidinediones (TZDs) rosiglitazone (ROS) and pioglitazone (PIO) are insulin-sensitising agents widely used to treat patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Thiazolidinediones significantly improve glycaemic control in diabetics by reduced

Role of S1P‐ and Rho‐kinase signalling in age‐related myogenic tone deficiency in murine resistance arteries

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing is a risk factor for cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. The myogenic response in resistance arteries is responsible for basal (myogenic) tone and blood flow autoregulation. G‐protein‐coupled receptors and G12/RhoA/Rho kinase are implicated in myogenic tone (MT), and we aimed to clarify their role in pressure sensing and ...

ESM‐1 and GBP‐1 are associated with endothelial dysfunction: emerging biomarkers or key players in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia?

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Endothelial specific molecule‐1 (ESM‐1) and guanylate binding protein‐1 (GBP‐1) are proteins that are produced by activated/dysfunctional endothelial cells and are increased and decreased, respectively, during preeclampsia. It remains to be established whether ESM‐1 and GBP‐1 could potentially be included as biomarkers for the ...
