Urinary Proteomics and Systems Biology Link Eight Proteins to the Higher Risk of Hypertension and Related Complications in Blacks Versus Whites

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Blacks are more prone to salt‐sensitive hypertension than Whites. This cross‐sectional analysis of a multi‐ethnic cohort aimed to search for proteins potentially involved in the susceptibility to salt sensitivity, hypertension, and hypertension‐related complications.

Adjoint Monte Carlo calculation of charged plasma particle flux to wall [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
This manuscript describes an adjoint/reverse Monte Carlo method to calculate the flux of charged plasma particles to the wall of e.g. a tokamak. Two applications are described: a fusion product activation probe and a neutral beam injection prompt loss measurement with a fast ion loss diagnostic.

Effects of Circulating and Local Uteroplacental Angiotensin II in Rat Pregnancy. [PDF]

, 2010
The renin-angiotensin (Ang) system is important during placental development. Dysregulation of the renin-Ang system is important in preeclampsia (PE). Female rats transgenic for the human angiotensinogen gene crossed with males transgenic for the human ...

The Role of Magnesium in Liver Cirrhosis

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Magnesium is a vital mineral involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions, crucial for physiological functions. Its deficiency, common in liver cirrhosis patients, correlates with poor outcomes by affecting inflammation, oxidative stress, fibrosis, and immunity. This review explores magnesium's role in cirrhosis and its interaction with disease mechanisms.

The planar Multipole Resonance Probe: a functional analytic approach [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Active Plasma Resonance Spectroscopy (APRS) is a well known diagnostic method, where a radio frequency probe is immersed into a plasma and excites plasma oscillations. The response of the plasma is recorded as frequency dependent spectrum, in which resonance peaks occur.

A new common functional coding variant at the DDC gene change renal enzyme activity and modify renal dopamine function. [PDF]

, 2019
The intra-renal dopamine (DA) system is highly expressed in the proximal tubule and contributes to Na+ and blood pressure homeostasis, as well as to the development of nephropathy.

Hydrochlorothiazide combined with exercise training attenuates blood pressure variability and renal dysfunctions in an experimental model of hypertension and ovarian hormone deprivation

FASEB BioAdvances, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2025.
Hydrochlorothiazide plus combined exercise training provides superior benefits compared to medication alone in female spontaneously hypertensive rats subjected to ovarian hormone deprivation. This combined approach significantly reduced blood pressure variability, improved inflammatory and redox profiles, and provided functional and morphological ...

Temporal changes in cardiac oxidative stress, inflammation and remodeling induced by exercise in hypertension: Role for local angiotensin II reduction [PDF]

, 2017
Exercise training reduces renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activation, decreases plasma and tissue oxidative stress and inflammation in hypertension. However, the temporal nature of these phenomena in response to exercise is unknown. We sought to determine
