UNI-494 treatment improves measures of renal dysfunction and cardiac pathology in male rats receiving L-NAME and angiotensin II. [PDF]
Abstract Mitochondrial dysfunction is essential in the pathophysiology of both cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Nicorandil, a nicotinamide nitrate derivative, has been used for years as a cardioprotective agent. It binds to sulfonylurea receptors, activating mitochondrial ATP‐sensitive potassium channels (MitoKATP) and ...

Effect of eplerenone on extracellular cardiac matrix biomarkers in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction without heart failure: insights from the randomized double-blind REMINDER Study [PDF]
Objective: Aldosterone stimulates cardiac collagen synthesis. Circulating biomarkers of collagen turnover provide a useful tool for the assessment of cardiac remodeling in patients with an acute myocardial infarction (MI).

Possible dose-dependent effect of eplerenone on intraocular pressure
Purpose: Intraocular pressure (IOP) is the main modifiable risk factor for glaucoma. Current therapies target the anterior outflow of aqueous humor or its production. This study aims to demonstrate eplerenone could reduce IOP through a possible posterior
