Local regulation of the coronary circulation in health and disease: role of nitric oxide and endothelin [PDF]
, 2016 Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in western countries. Its pathogenesis is unknown, but involves enhanced vasoconstriction, increased interaction of platelets and monocytes with the vessel wall, as well as ...

Rekonstruktion des großen Oecus der Villa des P. Fannius Synistor in Boscoreale [PDF]
, 1975 Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO, EC 1.4.3.6) belongs to a family of copper-containing amine oxidases. SSAO exists as a membrane bound protein in endothelial-, smooth muscle-, and adipose cells as well as soluble in plasma.

Atrial Natriuretic Peptide: Binding and Cyclic GMP Response in Cultured Vascular SmoothMuscle Cells From Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats [PDF]
, 2017 Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is vasodilatory and natriuretic, but whereas increased plasma ANP levels occur in spontaneously hypertensive rats, their elevated vascular resistance suggests inappropriate target tissue responsiveness to ANP.
