TNF-α induces vascular insulin resistance via positive modulation of PTEN and decreased Akt/eNOS/NO signaling in high fat diet-fed mice

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2016
BackgroundHigh fat diet (HFD) induces insulin resistance in various tissues, including the vasculature. HFD also increases plasma levels of TNF-α, a cytokine that contributes to insulin resistance and vascular dysfunction.

Vascular Microenvironment, Tumor Immunity and Immunotherapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Immunotherapy holds great promise for treating cancer. Nonetheless, T cell-based immunotherapy of solid tumors has remained challenging, largely due to the lack of universal tumor-specific antigens and an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME ...

Changes in Vascularization of Human Breast Cancer Xenografts Responding to Antiestrogen Therapy

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 1999
To elucidate the previously suggested vascular effect(s) of antiestrogen therapy, we studied the effect of estrogen withdrawal and tamoxifen on 1) vascular resistance, 2) glucose and oxygen consumption, 3) vascular density in a perfused breast cancer ...

Carotid baroreceptor reflexes in humans during orthostatic stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Orthostatic stress, including standing, head-up tilting and lower body suction, results in increases in peripheral vascular resistance but little or no change in mean arterial pressure.

Descending Aorta Blood Flow Characteristics before the Development of Necrotizing Enterocolitis in Preterm Neonates [PDF]

open access: yesNeonatal Medicine, 2018
Purpose To investigate the hemodynamic risk factors for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), we analyzed the characteristics of descending aorta (DA) blood flow in preterm neonates, who later developed NEC.

The response of tumour vasculature to angiotensin II revealed by its systemic and local administration to 'tissue-isolated' tumours [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
A tissue-isolated preparation of the P22 rat carcinosarcoma was used to investigate the tumour vascular response to angiotensin II (ATII). In particular, the relative importance of systemic and local tumour factors was assessed by comparing tumour ...
