Evidence for early endothelial dysfunction associated with the ALDH2 rs671 gene variant: A preliminary investigation with young East Asians

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is a mitochondrial enzyme that plays an important role in aldehyde detoxification. A large percentage (30–50%) of the East Asian population carry a single point mutation in the ALDH2 gene (ALDH2*2 variant) that causes a severe reduction or lack of ALDH2 enzyme activity, and leads to disrupted cellular ...

Postural control in humans: a study using transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of the study was to investigate the spinal mechanisms involved in regulating postural balance in humans. Participants stood in a normal stance, with their spinal postural networks either non‐invasively activated or not stimulated by electrical stimulation.

Early life stress and disruption of the ageing trajectory in female rats: Insights into the origins and mechanisms underlying the risk of hypertension

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Menopause increases the risk of hypertension in women, yet the factors contributing to this important change remain unclear. Because early life stress has persistent and sex‐specific consequences on health, we hypothesized that ageing reveals the latent effects of neonatal maternal separation (NMS) on cardiovascular homeostasis in female rats.

Quantifying skin microvascular function responses to distinct forms of heat stress in humans using optical coherence tomography

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables visualization and quantification of the cutaneous microvasculature, yet no study has compared responses to distinct forms of heating in humans. We hypothesized that local skin heating (LH) would evoke larger responses in microvascular diameter, velocity, flow and density than passive whole‐body ...

Evaluación de amplitud y frecuencia mediante el acondicionamiento del pulso pletismográfico y posterior extracción oximétrica – fase 2

open access: yesCiencia e Ingeniería, 2019
La señal pletismográfica permite cuantificar los cambios del volumen de sangre bajo parámetros de vasoconstricción y vasodilatación del diámetro venoso, para detectar posibles anomalías relacionadas con patologías pulmonares y sanguíneas. Por lo anterior,
