sGC stimulator BAY 41‐8543 improves survival and ventricular function in a rat model of doxorubicin‐induced cardiomyopathy with nephrotic syndrome

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Anthracyclines such as doxorubicin (DOXO) remain a cornerstone of cancer therapy but are associated with a high risk of cardiotoxicity and subsequent heart failure (HF). Impairment of NO/soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)/cGMP pathway has been reported in anthracycline‐induced cardiomyopathy.

Heart failure medication to prevent cancer therapy–related cardiac dysfunction: A narrative review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Advances in oncological therapies have improved cancer survival but also have increased the clinical incidence of cancer therapy–related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD), a spectrum of conditions ranging from subclinical biomarker or strain abnormalities to progressive heart failure and cardiogenic shock.

Factors affecting the aldosterone/renin ratio

, 2012
Plasma aldosterone/renin ratio (ARR) is the most popular screening test for primary aldosteronism (PA). Because both estrogen and progesterone (including in oral contraceptive agents) affect aldosterone and renin levels, we studied the effects of ...

Kininase I drives angiotensin II‐induced hypertension through activation of the bradykinin B1 receptor

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Kininase I, comprising carboxypeptidase N (CPN) and carboxypeptidase M, regulates kinin activity and is up‐regulated during injury, inflammation and immune activation. Under these conditions, kininase I converts bradykinin and kallidin into des‐Arg kinins, primary endogenous agonists of the bradykinin B1 receptor (R ...

Epigenetic and Metabolic Changes That Drive Trained Immunity in Response to Microbes and Vaccines

Immunology, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates how microbial products, vaccines and microbial metabolites activate pattern‐recognition receptor signalling, inducing metabolic rewiring and epigenetic remodelling. These changes establish long‐lasting trained immunity through the functional reprogramming of haematopoietic progenitors and innate immune cells, thereby

Expression of corticoid‐regulatory genes in the gills of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) parr and smolt and during salinity acclimation

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In teleost fishes, cortisol is the major corticoid and has both glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid actions. However, how fish tissues discriminate between these distinct corticosteroid actions is unclear. In mammals, the major factors responsible for intracellular corticosteroid regulation are glucocorticoid receptors (grs) and the ...

Plasma renin, angiotensin II, and plasma and urinary aldosterone in running exercise

, 1976
Plasma renin activity (PRA), renin concentration (PRC), angiotensin II and urinary aldosterone of four male athletes were investigated before and after a running exercise of 3 X 300 m.

High urine osmolality and elevated urine sodium predict early nonresponse to fluid restriction in patients with the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Fluid restriction is the current first‐line therapy for hyponatremia induced by the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIAD), yet up to 50% of patients do not achieve an adequate plasma sodium correction. Reported predictors of nonresponse include urine osmolality >500 mOsm/kg, the Furst ratio >1 [(UNa + UK)/(PNa)], urine ...

Aldosterone Induces Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases-1 Expression and Further Contributes to Collagen Accumulation From Clinical to Bench Studies

, 2017
Aldosterone induces myocardial fibrosis. Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) is a key factor of myocardial fibrosis. This study tested the hypothesis that aldosterone induces TIMP-1 expression and contributes to the fibrotic process.

Targeting Overweight and Obesity Phenotypes for Secondary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease: A Call to Action for the Middle East and Beyond

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although there are conflicting clinical data on the efficacy of weight reduction in reducing secondary events in patients with comorbid overweight and obesity (OAO) and cardiovascular disease (CVD), there is excellent epidemiological and biological evidence of a cause–effect relationship between OAO, CVD, and other systemic complications ...
