Leptin and Vascular Smooth Muscle

Current Vascular Pharmacology, 2006
Leptin has received extensive attention as an endogenously produced satiety factor. Although once considered to be solely derived from adipose tissue, it is now apparent that leptin can be produced by various tissues including those comprising the cardiovascular system such as blood vessels and cardiomyocytes. Moreover, leptin receptors (OBR) have been

Vascular Smooth Muscle Energetics

Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 1984
ATP utilization (delta approximately P) during an isometric contraction has been studied in terms of both measurements of oxygen consumption and lactate production as well as of the tissue nucleotide and metabolite levels. The contribution of breakdown of preformed ATP and phosphocreatine (PCr) pools to delta approximately P during contraction is minor

Vascular Smooth Muscle

2005
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are a major component of arteries, veins and small blood vessels. Their main function is to maintain vascular tone, via co-ordinated vasoconstriction and vasorelaxation, thereby regulating blood pressure and flow.

Mechanotransduction by Vascular Smooth Muscle

Journal of Vascular Research, 1995
Mechanotransduction by vascular smooth muscle (VSM) is defined as a cellular response (contraction, secretion, growth, division) to transmural pressure or stretch. This review includes an overview of the physical forces VSM cells experience in vivo, consideration of experimental techniques used to study VSM mechanotransduction, and a discussion of the ...

Leptin and Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2014
This review concerns the influence of leptin on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). VSMC express different isoforms of the leptin receptor (Ob-R) able to activate a wide range of intracellular signalling pathways, mediating many relevant biological actions.
