Optimizing cerebrovascular endothelial health through shear stress modulation

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The endothelium plays a pivotal role in regulating cerebrovascular blood flow, and its dysfunction increases the risk of cerebrovascular disease. Endothelial shear stress, a primary mechanical stimulus for endothelial nitric oxide production, is a key modulator of vascular adaptation.

Menopause and vascular endothelial health: Is it all about the oestrogen?

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of mortality in women, and CVD risk is accelerated during the menopause transition. This acceleration has traditionally been attributed to the hallmark decline in oestradiol with menopause. However, the menopause transition is also characterized by changes in other sex hormones that exert effects

Contributions of vascular ageing to late‐onset Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) is an age‐related disease that is strongly associated with vascular risk factors and cerebrovascular impairments. As such, changes in the vasculature with advancing age likely contribute to LOAD, but the mechanisms underlying these contributions remain incompletely understood.

Cerebrovascular flow‐mediated dilation in humans: Methodological challenges, physiological interpretation and future integrations

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Arterial shear‐mediated vasodilation is a well‐established measure of endothelial function and serves as a critical biomarker for cardiovascular disease risk. Endothelial function can be measured using a variety of experimental methodologies; however, the most widely adopted technique is ultrasound‐based flow‐mediated dilation (FMD), in which ...

VEGF inhibitor‐induced vascular dysfunction involves redox‐sensitive PARP activation and SIRT1 disruption

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitors are effective antiangiogenic agents used in cancer therapy. However, they are associated with cardiovascular disease, including hypertension and vascular dysfunction. The molecular mechanisms underlying these cardiovascular toxicities are unclear, but oxidative stress might be ...
