Endogenous inhibitors of hypertrophy in concentric versus eccentric hypertrophy
European Journal of Heart Failure, 2007AbstractLeft ventricular (LV) hypertrophy (LVH) is an adaptive response to hemodynamic overload, but also contributes to the pathogenesis of heart failure. LVH can be concentric (cLVH) but subsequent dilatation and progression to eccentric hypertrophy (eLVH) may lead to global pump failure.

Nicardipine and vascular hypertrophy
American Heart Journal, 1991The effects of nicardipine administration on the morphology of coronary, renal, and pulmonary vascular trees were studied in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). Male 10-week-old SHRs received 1 mg/kg/day of nicardipine or vehicle orally for 12 weeks. Age-matched Wistar-Kyoto rats were used as normotensive reference animals.

Mechanisms of Cardiac Hypertrophy
Heart Failure Clinics, 2005Cardiac hypertrophy is a response of myocardium to various physiologic and pathologic stimuli, mechanical and hormonal, that causes the heart to work harder under conditions of increased workload [1–3]. Different cardiovascular diseases, such as aortic stenosis, hypertension, and myocardial infarct, cause mechanical stretching on cardiac walls. Cardiac

Endothelin and Cardiac Hypertrophy
Life Sciences, 1997Cardiac hypertrophy is a commonly observed complication of a variety of cardiovascular diseases. As well as mechanical stresses such as pressure overload, several humoral factors may contribute to the development of cardiac hypertrophy. In the early 1990s, endothelin-1 (ET-1) was found to induce cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in cultured neonatal rat ...

Cardiac hypertrophy and hypertension
Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1998In the general population and in patients with essential hypertension the presence of left ventricular hypertrophy is a powerful predictor of cardiovascular events, independent of blood pressure and other cardiovascular risk factors. The prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy increases with age and with the severity of renal impairment.

Differences in Concentric Cardiac Hypertrophy and Eccentric Hypertrophy
2012Cardiac hypertrophy is an adaptive process which occurs as a result of increased stress endured by the heart and this cardiac remodeling serves as a reactive mechanism to compensate for volume overload or pressure overload. An increase in pressure, common in hypertension or resistance training, results in a concentric hypertrophic phenotype whereas an ...
