Exercise training and losartan improve endothelial function in heart failure rats by different mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Objectives. To investigate the mechanisms of losartan- and exercise training-induced improvements on endothelial dysfunction in heart failure. Design. Sprague-Dawley rats subjected to left coronary artery ligation inducing myocardial infarction and heart

Extracellular vesicles derived from Akkermansia muciniphila promote placentation and mitigate preeclampsia in a mouse model

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 12, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Am produced EVs in the GI tract. AmEVs can cross the intestinal barrier and reach the placenta in dams. AmEVs can interact with trophoblasts to improve trophoblast proliferation, migration and invasion by activating the EGFR‐PI3K‐AKT signalling pathway, which further promotes SpA remodelling. The graphical abstract was created with BioRender.com.

Vascular effects of arachidonic acid in the rat perfused heart: role of the endothelium, cyclooxygenase, cytochrome P450, and K+ channels

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1999
The vascular effects of arachidonic acid (AA) were addressed in the rat perfused heart in terms of metabolic pathways and effector mechanisms. Under basal perfusion pressure, AA elicited dilator responses. However, in hearts treated with nitroarginine to

Nitric Oxide Is Required for L-Type Ca(2+) Channel-Dependent Long-Term Potentiation in the Hippocampus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Nitric oxide (NO) has long been implicated in the generation of long-term potentiation (LTP) and other types of synaptic plasticity, a role for which the intimate coupling between NMDA receptors (NMDARs) and the neuronal isoform of NO synthase (nNOS) is ...

Critical role of mitogen‐inducible gene 6 in restraining endothelial cell permeability to maintain vascular homeostasis

open access: yesJournal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 17, Issue 1, Page 151-165, March 2023., 2023
Graphical abstract Xing et al. (2022) investigated the critical role of MIG6 in vascular permeability. MIG6 deficiency promotes VEGFA‐induced vascular permeability via activation of PLCγ1‐Ca2+‐eNOS signaling and perturbation of the balance in RAC1/RHOA activation, resulting in endothelial barrier disruption.

Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase participates in nitric oxide consumption by rat brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In low nanomolar concentrations, NO (nitric oxide) functions as a transmitter in brain and other tissues, whereas near-micromolar NO concentrations are associated with toxicity and cell death.

Glycyrrhetinic Acid Reverses the Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Hypocontractility to Noradrenaline in Rat Aorta: Implications to Septic Shock

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2014
.: Septic shock and associated vascular hyporeactivity to vasoconstrictor agonists remain a major problem of critical care medicine. Here we report that glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), the active component of licorice, effectively restores vascular ...

Involvement of nitric oxide in the mitochondrial action of efavirenz: a differential effect on neurons and glial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) drug efavirenz (EFV) alters mitochondrial function in cultured neurons and glial cells. Nitric oxide (NO) is a mediator of mitochondrial dysfunction associated with HIV central nervous system symptoms.

l-2-Nitrimino-1,3-diazepane-4-carboxylic acid

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section E, 2008
The cyclic form of l-nitroarginine, C6H10N4O4, crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. According to the geometrical parameters, similar in both molecules, the structure corresponds to that of l-2-nitrimino-1,3-diazepane-4 ...

L-ARGININE PREVENTS ISCHEMIC INJURY IN EXPLANTED RAT INTESTINAL REGIONS IN AN EX VIVO PERFUSION MODEL

open access: yesTransplantation Reports, 2022
Background: The small intestine is one of the most sensitive organs to ischemia. L-arginine has been shown to reduce damage from ischemia and reperfusion injury.
