Fenofibrate Therapy Restores Antioxidant Protection and Improves Myocardial Insulin Resistance in a Rat Model of Metabolic Syndrome and Myocardial Ischemia: The Role of Angiotensin II

open access: yesMolecules, 2016
Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activation promotes oxidative stress which increases the risk of cardiac dysfunction in metabolic syndrome (MetS) and favors local insulin resistance. Fibrates regulate RAS improving MetS, type-2 diabetes and cardiovascular

Nitric oxide synthase and the contribution of nitric oxide to vertebrate motor control

open access: yes, 2008
I have explored the role of nitric oxide (NO) and the distribution of its synthetic enzyme in neurons, nNOS, in vertebrate motor control. The CNS of Xenopus laevis tadpoles was used primarily in this investigation as a developmental model of neural ...

Signaling of angiotensin II-induced vascular protein synthesis in conduit and resistance arteries in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
<b>Background</b> From in vitro studies, it has become clear that several signaling cascades are involved in angiotensin II-induced cellular hypertrophy.

IRF‐1 modulates hepatic ferroptosis and aggravates liver ischemia/reperfusion injury via DYRK1α

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
IRF‐1 modulates hepatic ferroptosis and aggravates liver ischemia/reperfusion injury via DYRK1α. Abstract Background The purpose is to define the contribution of the interferon regulatory factor‐1–dual‐specificity tyrosine phosphorylation‐regulated kinase 1α (IRF‐1–DYRK1α) axis to hepatocellular ferroptosis during liver ischemia/reperfusion injury ...

Lipocalin‐2 activates hepatic stellate cells and promotes nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in high‐fat diet–fed Ob/Ob mice

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Graphical summary of obesity‐induced NASH progression by LCN2 targeted to HSC activation. Abstract Background and Aims In obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, leptin promotes insulin resistance and contributes to the progression of NASH via activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs).

Effects of cardiovascular angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockade on nitric oxide synthase inhibition in patients with insulin resistance syndrome

open access: yesBlood Pressure, 2009
There is evidence that in the early stages of type II diabetes, the cardiovascular system compensates by increasing endothelial nitric oxide synthase (e-NOS) expression. In the advanced stages of disease, e-NOS is diminished, and is associated with endothelial dysfunction.

Nitric oxide mediates the neuroproliferative effect of Neuropeptide Y

open access: yes, 2012
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is widely expressed in both the central and peripheral nervous system and has an important role in the regulation of adult hippocampal neurogenesis by mediating the proliferation of neural precursor cells in both health and disease ...

Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

The NADPH oxidase NOX4 regulates redox and metabolic homeostasis preventing HCC progression

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Loss of NOX4 in HCC tumor cells induces metabolic reprogramming in a Nrf2/MYC‐dependent manner to promote HCC progression. Abstract Background and Aims The NADPH oxidase NOX4 plays a tumor‐suppressor function in HCC. Silencing NOX4 confers higher proliferative and migratory capacity to HCC cells and increases their in vivo tumorigenic potential in ...

Distinct modulation of angiotensin II-induced early left ventricular hypertrophic gene programming by dietary fat type

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
Long-term dietary fatty acid intake alters the development of left ventricular hypertrophy, but the linking signaling pathways are unclear. We studied the role and underlying signaling mechanisms of dietary fat intake in the early phase of the ...
