Dietary capsaicin-mediated attenuation of hypertension in a rat model of renovascular hypertension
Background: Capsaicin, a pungent component of chili pepper, has been reported to decrease blood pressure (BP) and to cause vasorelaxation via nitric oxide (NO) production.

Obesity is always associated with chronic (low-grade) inflammation, which causes insulin-resistance in type-II diabetes mellitus. Dramatically, cholesterol level rises with starting diabetes and lower insulin level.

The key role of nitric oxide in hypoxia: hypoxic vasodilation and energy supply-demand matching [PDF]
Significance: a mismatch between energy supply and demand induces tissue hypoxia with the potential to cause cell death and organ failure. Whenever arterial oxygen concentration is reduced, increases in blood flow - 'hypoxic vasodilation' - occur in an ...

A rapid and transient synthesis of nitric oxide (NO) by a constitutively expressed type II NO synthase in the guinea‐pig suprachiasmatic nucleus [PDF]
We have measured extracellular NO/NO2− concentrations in guinea‐pig suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) brain slices using fast cyclic voltammetry. A rapid and transient signal equivalent to 2.2±0.2 μM NO/NO2− (mean±s.e.mean, n=13) was detected at 1.26 V, the peak oxidation potential for NO, following local electrical stimulation (five pulses of 0.1 ms ...

Autophagy contributes to angiotensin II induced dysfunction of HUVECs
Background: Signal transduction of Angiotensin II (Ang II) induced autophagy and its role in Ang II–induced dysfunction of HUVECs are still unclear. Methods: HUVECs are stimulated with different doses of Ang II (10-9-10-5 mol/L) for different time (6–48 ...

The SWELL1-LRRC8 complex regulates endothelial AKT-eNOS signaling and vascular function
The endothelium responds to numerous chemical and mechanical factors in regulating vascular tone, blood pressure, and blood flow. The endothelial volume-regulated anion channel (VRAC) has been proposed to be mechanosensitive and thereby sense fluid flow ...
