SPARCL1 and NT‐proBNP as biomarkers of right ventricular‐to‐pulmonary artery uncoupling in pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1416-1426, April 2025.
Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

Endothelin‐1 and Endothelin Receptor Antagonists in Cardiovascular Remodeling

open access: yesProceedings of the Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1999
Endothelins build a peptide family composed of three isoforms, each of them containing 21 amino acids. Endothelin‐1 is the isoform mainly responsible for any cardiovascular action and therefore the sole scope of this review. Endothelin‐1 is the most potent endogenous vasoconstrictor known; in addition it acts as a potent (co)mitogen.

The Impact of Methotrexate on Cardiovascular Outcomes in Psoriasis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Psoriasis is a chronic immune‐mediated inflammatory disease with a global prevalence of 2%–3% and 1.3% in Brazil. It is associated with comorbidities such as obesity, hypertension, and diabetes, all of which contribute to increased cardiovascular risk due to systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction.

Direct angiotensin AT2 receptor stimulation using a novel AT2 receptor agonist, compound 21, evokes neuroprotection in conscious hypertensive rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: In this study, the neuroprotective effect of a novel nonpeptide AT2R agonist, C21, was examined in a conscious model of stroke to verify a class effect of AT2R agonists as neuroprotective agents.
