Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes: Pathophysiological mechanisms and opportunities for multiscale computational modelling and simulation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Overview of multiscale cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes and how to model and simulate these changes using a human‐based, multiscale computational framework. Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes occurs at ionic channel, protein, cellular, tissue and whole‐organ level, affecting the electrophysiological function, mechanical

Role of aldosterone in various target organ damage in patients with hypertensive emergency: a cross-sectional study

BMC Nephrology
Background Hypertensive emergency is a critical disease that causes multiple organ injuries. Although the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAS) is enormously activated in this disorder, whether the RAS contributes to the development of the organ ...

Natural and Synthetic Corticosteroids Inhibit Uptake\u3csub\u3e2\u3c/sub\u3e-Mediated Transport in CNS Neurons [PDF]

, 2011
In addition to exerting actions via mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid receptors, corticosteroids also act by inhibiting uptake2, a high-capacity monoamine transport system originally described in peripheral tissues.

Mitochondrial oxidative stress, calcium and dynamics in cardiac ischaemia‐reperfusion injury

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Heart attack causes ischaemia–reperfusion injury in cardiomyocytes. Mitochondria generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to oxidative stress. High levels of mitochondrial calcium (Ca2+) activate the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), and excess ROS levels can lower the Ca2+ required to activate the mPTP ...

Mechanisms of haemoglobin mass expansion following heat stress

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Theorised mechanisms of heat stress‐induced erythropoiesis which may facilitate the expansion of haemoglobin mass. A, acute: heat stress‐induced renal ischaemia. Redistribution of blood flow away from the kidneys to facilitate thermoregulation during heat stress could reduce renal oxygen delivery, subsequently lowering renal PO2${

Augmenting erythropoiesis using recombinant human erythropoietin at sea level blunts the high altitude induced increase in erythropoiesis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pharmacologically augmenting erythropoiesis with rEPO at sea level blunts the high altitude induced erythropoiesis. Abstract Erythropoiesis increases with high altitude (HA) acclimatization. Recombinant human erythropoietin (rEPO) induces erythropoiesis.
