OBSERVATIONS ON THE PATHOLOGICAL CHANGES FOLLOWING EXPERIMENTAL HYPERTENSION PRODUCED BY CONSTRICTION OF THE RENAL ARTERY [PDF]
The clinical histories and pathological findings of six animals dying within a few days following bilateral constriction of the renal arteries have been presented. No explanation for the rise in blood pressure was found. The clinical histories and pathological findings of twelve animals with a sustained hypertension have been considered ...

An electrostatic mechanism for Ca(2+)-mediated regulation of gap junction channels. [PDF]
Gap junction channels mediate intercellular signalling that is crucial in tissue development, homeostasis and pathologic states such as cardiac arrhythmias, cancer and trauma.

The effects of curvature and constriction on airflow and energy loss in pathological tracheas
This paper considers factors that play a significant role in determining inspiratory pressure and energy losses in the human trachea. Previous characterisations of pathological geometry changes have focussed on relating airway constriction and subsequent pressure loss, however many pathologies that affect the trachea cause deviation, increased ...

Cardiac remodeling predisposes to heart failure if the burden is unresolved, and heart failure is an important cause of mortality in humans. The aim of the present study was to identify the key genes involved in cardiac pathological remodeling induced by pressure overload.

PATHOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF DORSAL ROOT GANGLIA AND SPINAL CORD AND SCIATIC NERVE FOLLOWING A CHRONIC CONSTRICTION INJURY OF THE SCIATIC NERVE IN RATS [PDF]
Objective: To study pathological changes on spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and sciatic nerve itself after sciatic nerve injury in rats Design: Randomized experimental study Procedure: Rats were randomly divided into two main groups. Control group (25 rats) without any treatment and treated group (n=50) with induced chronic constriction ...

Estimation of lumped cerebral arterial radius is important for healthcare monitoring in ICU patients, specially for detecting the presence of vasospasm following Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. A technique for continuous monitoring based on available measurements without introducing any additional invasive technique is very attractive, and would allow ...

MicroRNA-1 downregulation increases connexin 43 displacement and induces ventricular tachyarrhythmias in rodent hypertrophic hearts. [PDF]
Downregulation of the muscle-specific microRNA-1 (miR-1) mediates the induction of pathologic cardiac hypertrophy. Dysfunction of the gap junction protein connexin 43 (Cx43), an established miR-1 target, during cardiac hypertrophy leads to ventricular ...

CTRP3 alleviates mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress injury in pathological cardiac hypertrophy by activating UPRmt via the SIRT1/ATF5 axis [PDF]
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is an independent risk factor for heart failure. Disruption of mitochondrial protein homeostasis plays a key role in pathological cardiac hypertrophy; however, the mechanism of maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis in ...
