Participation of NO in the vasodilatory action of isoespintanol
Background: accumulating evidence suggests that natural compounds and specifically monoterpenes exert a vasodilator action. Objetive: to investigate the vascular effects of isoespintanol (2-isopropil-3,6- dimetoxi-5-metilfenol, ISO) monoterpene isolated ...

Tumor Necrosis Factor - Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand (TRAIL) promotes angiogenesis and ischemia- induced neovascularization via NADPH Oxidase 4 (NOX4) and Nitric Oxide - dependent mechanisms [PDF]
Background — Tumor necrosis factor–related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) has the ability to inhibit angiogenesis by inducing endothelial cell death, as well as being able to promote pro- angiogenic activity in vitro.

GLP‐2 and GIP acutely increase superior mesenteric artery blood flow in male rats, and the effect is independent of nitric oxide and vasoactive intestinal peptide. Abstract Following a meal, splanchnic blood flow increases. This is important for nutrient absorption and is regulated by the enteric nervous system and gastrointestinal (GI) hormones ...

Role of HO/CO in the Control of Peripheral Circulation in Humans
Experimental studies show that the heme oxygenase/carbon monoxide system (HO/CO) plays an important role in the homeostasis of circulation and in the pathophysiology of hypertension.
