Hypertrophy and reversal of hypertrophy in rat pelvic ganglion neurons [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Neurocytology, 1992
An experimental procedure which chronically reduces the lumen of the urethra in adult female rats produced distension of the bladder and conspicuous thickening of its wall, resulting within 6-8 weeks in a ten-fold increase in muscle weight (muscle hypertrophy). During this process, the neurons in the pelvic ganglion that innervate the bladder undergo a

Mechanisms of Cardiac Hypertrophy

Heart Failure Clinics, 2005
Cardiac 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

Cardiac hypertrophy and hypertension

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1998
In 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.

Unilateral temporalis muscle hypertrophy with contralateral masseteric hypertrophy

Dentomaxillofacial Radiology, 2007
We report the MRI findings of a 22-year-old woman who complained of localized swelling in the left temporal region and right side of the face. MRI revealed left temporal and right masseter muscle hypertrophy, which to our knowledge has not been reported previously. The diagnosis of benign masticatory muscle hypertrophy was confirmed by biopsy.

Choline ameliorates cardiac hypertrophy by regulating metabolic remodelling and UPRmt through SIRT3-AMPK pathway

Cardiovascular Research, 2018
AIMS Cardiac hypertrophy is characterized by a shift in metabolic substrate utilization, but the molecular events underlying the metabolic remodelling remain poorly understood.

Endothelin and Cardiac Hypertrophy

Life Sciences, 1997
Cardiac 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 ...

Differences in Concentric Cardiac Hypertrophy and Eccentric Hypertrophy

2012
Cardiac 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 ...
