Melatonin Decreases Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling and Oxygen Sensitivity in Pulmonary Hypertensive Newborn Lambs

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Background: Chronic hypoxia and oxidative stress during gestation lead to pulmonary hypertension of the neonate (PHN), a condition characterized by abnormal pulmonary arterial reactivity and remodeling.

Perivascular adipose tissue mediated aortic reactivity data: Female lean and obese Zucker rats

open access: yesData in Brief, 2020
Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) is recognized as a paracrine organ that controls vascular function. One of the early data demonstrated PVAT from male Sprague-Dawley rats altered aortic vascular reactivity [1].

Interaction of vascular endothelial cells with CD8+ T-cells in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Transplantation of organs and cells saves and prolongs thousands of lives every year. Surgical techniques were significantly improved but major problems remain, in particular the host’s immune system.

Mechanics and composition of middle cerebral arteries from simulated microgravity rats with and without 1-h/d -Gx gravitation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: To elucidate further from the biomechanical aspect whether microgravity-induced cerebral vascular maladaptation might be a contributing factor to postflight orthostatic intolerance and the underlying mechanism accounting for the potential ...

Pericytes protect rats and mice from sepsis-induced injuries by maintaining vascular reactivity and barrier function: implication of miRNAs and microvesicles

open access: yesMilitary Medical Research, 2023
Background Vascular hyporeactivity and leakage are key pathophysiologic features that produce multi-organ damage upon sepsis. We hypothesized that pericytes, a group of pluripotent cells that maintain vascular integrity and tension, are protective ...

Effects of lead on vascular reactivity. [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Health Perspectives, 1988
Considerable controversy exists concerning the possible role of lead in the etiology of human hypertension. In animal studies, there is convincing evidence that lead alters cardiovascular responsiveness; rats drinking water containing 100 ppm lead develop a chronic, significant 15 to 20 mm Hg elevation in systolic blood pressure. Pressor responsiveness

The association of nadir CD4-T cell count and endothelial dysfunction in a healthy HIV cohort without major cardiovascular risk factors

open access: yesSAGE Open Medicine, 2020
Objectives: HIV-infected population may have increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The prevalence of traditional cardiovascular disease risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia in HIV-infected individuals has made it difficult to ...

Serum adiponectin level is positively associated with vascular reactivity index by digital thermal monitoring in patients with coronary artery disease

open access: yesTzu Chi Medical Journal, 2023
Objectives: Adiponectin has anti-inflammatory and antiatherogenic effects and is important in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. In this cross-sectional study, our objective was to study the potential correlation between serum adiponectin ...
