ABSTRACT Understanding the mechanisms underpinning vascular smooth muscle contraction, which are critical targets for cardiovascular disease treatment, is essential for developing novel therapeutic agents. Recently, the role of mitochondrial fission as a key modulatory event in the vascular contractile process has been questioned.

ABSTRACT Inhibition of vasocontraction accounts for side effects in treating voiding symptoms in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We examined the vasoactivity of compounds previously showing inhibition of prostate smooth muscle contraction. Contractions of porcine renal interlobar and coronary arteries were induced by agonists or electric field ...

Mechanisms That Prevent Vascular Leakage During Leukocyte Extravasation
ABSTRACT Background Inflammation is the response of the immune system against harmful stimuli in tissues. Leukocyte extravasation or TransEndothelial Migration (TEM) is a crucial step during inflammation, in which leukocytes migrate over the endothelial barrier toward the damaged tissue.

Summary RHO (RAS homologous) GTPases regulate important cellular and developmental processes in most eukaryotes. Plant‐specific ROP (RHO of plants) GTPase families expanded and functionally diversified during the evolution of vascular plants, but contain few members in nonvascular extant relatives of early land plants.
