Abstract 545: Sex Difference in Right Ventricular Response to Pressure Overload is Associated With Differential Fibrotic Remodeling and Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate Signaling

Circulation Research, 2020
Background: In HFpEF and PAH, men are more likely than women to develop right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) and die. Mechanisms underlying these sex differences are not well understood. In advanced HF patients, RVD is associated with RV fibrosis.

Effects of fetal calf serum on cGMP pathway and oocyte lipid metabolism in vitro.

Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 2017
Intracellular levels of cyclic nucleotides, such as cGMP, are involved in the regulation of adipocyte lipolysis. Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) express enzymes that both synthesise (guanylate cyclase) and degrade (phosphodiesterase (PDE) 5A) cGMP ...

165 FETAL CALF SERUM INFLUENCES CYCLIC GMP PATHWAY, WHICH IN TURN AFFECTS THE LIPID CONTENT IN IN VITRO-MATURED BOVINE OOCYTES

, 2014
The sensitivity of IVP embryos to cryopreservation is often associated with lipid accumulation in the cytoplasm induced by the presence of fetal calf serum (FCS) during culture.

106 ANGIOGENIC FACTOR mRNA EXPRESSION IN FETAL MEMBRANES IN EARLY PREGNANT SHEEP

, 2009
Maternal and fetal placental development may be compromised by use of assisted reproductive techniques, including cloning, resulting in poor placental angiogenesis and subsequent high embryonic/fetal loss (Palmieri et al.

Mechanical pressure unloading therapy reverses thoracic aortic structural and functional changes in a hypertensive rat model

Journal of Hypertension, 2018
Objectives: Hypertension can impair structure and function of blood vessels. Experimental data describing the reverse remodeling process after a mechanical pressure unloading therapy in the vasculature is limited.

128 Evidence that Pregnancy-Associated Serum Protein A (PAPP-A) Plays Role on Bovine In Vitro Embryo Production

, 2018
The aim of present work was to assess the effects of pregnancy-associated serum protein A (PAPP-A) during oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM) on meiosis progression, DNA fragmentation, IGF-1 free bioavailability, as well as effects on embryo yield and ...

259 PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATIONS OF THE EFFECT OF NITRIC OXIDE ON THE EXPRESSION OF GENES INVOLVED IN THE NITRIC OXIDE/CYCLIC GUANOSINE MONOPHOSPHATE/CYCLIC ADENOSINE MONOPHOSPHATE PATHWAY DURING MEIOSIS RESUMPTION IN BOVINE OOCYTES

, 2013
Nitric oxide is a chemical messenger generated by the activity of the enzyme NO synthase (NOS) and has been implicated in the control of oocyte maturation.
