Relationships of Adrenoceptor Polymorphisms with Obesity

open access: yesJournal of Obesity, 2011
Obesity, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes are rapidly growing public health problems. Heightened sympathetic nerve activity is a well-established observation in obesity, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes.

Oxidative Stress in the Brain Causes Hypertension via Sympathoexcitation

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2012
Activation of the sympathetic nervous system has an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension, and is determined by the brain. Previous many studies have demonstrated that oxidative stress, mainly produced by angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor

A Model for the Genesis of Arterial Pressure Mayer Waves from Heart Rate and Sympathetic Activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Both theoretic models and cross-spectral analyses suggest that an oscillating sympathetic nervous outflow generates the low frequency arterial pressure fluctuations termed Mayer waves. Fluctuations in heart rate also have been suggested to relate closely

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

Local sympathetic nerve depletion does not alter vitiligo progression in a mouse model

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
Vitiligo, an autoimmune skin disorder characterized by melanocyte loss, has long been associated with sympathetic nervous system activity. Clinical observations have suggested links between psychological stress, sympathetic activation, and vitiligo ...

KISS1 and KISS1R expression in the human and rat carotid body and superior cervical ganglion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
KISS1 and its receptor, KISS1R, have both been found to be expressed in central nervous system, but few data are present in the literature about their distribution in peripheral nervous structures.

The heartbreak of depression: 'Psycho-cardiac' coupling in myocardial infarction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ample evidence identifies strong links between major depressive disorder (MDD) and both risk of ischemic or coronary heart disease (CHD) and resultant morbidity and mortality. The molecular mechanistic bases of these linkages are poorly defined. Systemic

Nerve growth factor is sufficient to cause multiple osteoarthritis‐relevant pathological features in naïve murine knee joints

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Nerve growth factor (NGF), a key mediator of pain, is increased in osteoarthritic (OA) joints. Antibodies against NGF show analgesic effects in painful knee OA, but clinical development was stopped due to side‐effects in the joints. Knowledge about the biological effects of NGF on joint tissues is limited.

ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS AND SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2001
Several studies have demonstrated that essential hypertension is accompanied by sympathetic activation, which contributes to blood pressure elevation. Sympathetic activation also has adverse consequences in hypertensive patients beyond initiating blood pressure elevation.
