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

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.

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 ...

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 ...

Abstract figure legend Excessive hypercholesterolaemia during pregnancy impairs maternal endothelial function, which, in turn, drives the development of pre‐eclampsia and may also contribute to the increased risk of later‐life cardiovascular disease in women.

Use of a nonselective endothelin receptor antagonist in idiopathic pulmonary hypertension
Idiopathic (primary) pulmonary hypertension (IPH) is a rare disease of unknown etiology, which is characterized by elevated pulmonary artery pressure, increased total pulmonary vascular resistance, frequently a malignant course with evolving right ...

Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...
