A novel long non-coding natural antisense RNA is a negative regulator of Nos1 gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Long non-coding natural antisense transcripts (NATs) are widespread in eukaryotic species. Although recent studies indicate that long NATs are engaged in the regulation of gene expression, the precise functional roles of the vast majority of them are ...

Multi-omic signatures of atherogenic dyslipidaemia: pre-clinical target identification and validation in humans

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2021
Background Dyslipidaemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. The molecular mechanisms that translate dyslipidaemia into atherogenesis and reliable markers of its progression are yet to be fully elucidated.

Pharmacology and clinical drug candidates in redox medicine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
SIGNIFICANCE Oxidative stress is suggested to be a disease mechanism common to a wide range of disorders affecting human health. However, so far, the pharmacotherapeutic exploitation of this, for example, based on chemical scavenging of pro-oxidant ...

Pro-atherosclerotic disturbed flow disrupts caveolin-1 expression, localization, and function via glycocalyx degradation

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2018
Background Endothelial-dependent atherosclerosis develops in a non-random pattern in regions of vessel bending and bifurcations, where blood flow exhibits disturbed flow (DF) patterns.

Chimeras of Nitric-oxide Synthase Types I and III Establish Fundamental Correlates between Heme Reduction, Heme-NO Complex Formation, and Catalytic Activity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2001
Neuronal nitric-oxide synthase (nNOS or NOS I) and endothelial NOS (eNOS or NOS III) differ widely in their reductase and nitric oxide (NO) synthesis activities, electron transfer rates, and propensities to form a heme-NO complex during catalysis.

Type III Secretion Protein, PcrV, Impairs Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Formation by Increasing M1 Macrophage-Mediated Anti-bacterial Activities

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms employ a variety of strategies to hijack the host immune defense system to achieve chronic infection. However, the bacterial components that are involved in this process are not yet fully understood.

Nonylphenol and octylphenol differently affect cell redox balance by modulating the nitric oxide signaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Nonylphenol (NP) and octylphenol (OP) are pervasive environmental contaminants belonging to the broader class of compounds known as alkylphenols, with potential human toxic effects.

Localization of nitric oxide synthase type III in the internal thoracic and radial arteries and the great saphenous vein: A comparative immunohistochemical study [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2003
Endothelial nitric oxide synthase type III is the key enzyme of the nitric oxide production in the vessel wall. In this study the localization of endothelial nitric oxide synthase type III within the wall of the human internal thoracic and radial arteries and the great saphenous vein was investigated.Specimens were harvested from 23 patients undergoing

Compensatory Feto-Placental Upregulation of the Nitric Oxide System during Fetal Growth Restriction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Fetal Growth Restriction is often associated with a feto-placental vascular dysfunction conceivably involving endothelial cells. Our study aimed to verify this pathogenic role for feto-placental endothelial cells and, coincidentally ...

Scientific validation of anti-arthritic effect of Kashayams – A polyherbal formulation in collagen induced arthritic rats

open access: yesJournal of Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine, 2021
Background: Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR-4) mediates activation of nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) resulting in induction of proinflammatory genes such as that encoding tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin ...
