Cystamine reduces vascular stiffness in Western diet-fed female mice.

Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol, 2022
Consumption of diets high in fat, sugar and salt (Western diet, WD) is associated with accelerated arterial stiffening, a major independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Obese women are more prone to develop arterial stiffening leading to

Exercise, Vascular Stiffness, and Tissue Transglutaminase [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association, 2014
Background Vascular aging is closely associated with increased vascular stiffness. It has recently been demonstrated that decreased nitric oxide ( NO )‐induced S‐nitrosylation of tissue transglutaminase ( TG 2) contributes to age‐related vascular stiffness ...

The Clinical Significance and Application of Vascular Stiffness Measurements [PDF]

American Journal of Hypertension, 2018
Increasing evidence points out at vascular stiffness (and in particular aortic stiffness measured by pulse wave velocity) as a reliable biomarker of vascular aging, able to integrate in a single measure the overall burden of cardiovascular (CV) risk ...

Arterial Stiffness Assessed by Cardio-Ankle Vascular Index [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Arterial stiffness is an age-related disorder. In the medial layer of arteries, mechanical fracture due to fatigue failure for the pulsatile wall strain causes medial degeneration vascular remodeling. The alteration of extracellular matrix composition and arterial geometry result in structural arterial stiffness.

Activation of the IKK2/NF-κB pathway in VSMCs inhibits calcified vascular stiffness in CKD [PDF]

JCI Insight
IKK2/NF-κB pathway–mediated inflammation in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) has been proposed to be an etiologic factor in medial calcification and stiffness.

Characterization of di‐gital, tri‐gital, and tetra‐gital temporal movement of systolic blood pressure on the arterial pulse waveform of rats at different vascular stiffness [PDF]

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine
Background An arterial stiffness is an indicator of many cardiovascular diseases. The temporal position of systolic blood pressure (BP) on aorta pulse waveform is assumed to gradually shift on the waveform in response to increasing/decreasing vascular ...

Tissue Transglutaminase Modulates Vascular Stiffness and Function Through Crosslinking‐Dependent and Crosslinking‐Independent Functions

Journal of the American Heart Association, 2017
Background The structural elements of the vascular wall, namely, extracellular matrix and smooth muscle cells (SMCs), contribute to the overall stiffness of the vessel.

Vascular stiffness and diastolic heart failure

Терапевтический архив, 2013
Vascular stiffness is regarded as a result of degenerative processes potentiated by aging, hypertension, and other risk factors. Central hemodynamic changes are one of the serious sequels of high arterial stiffness, which gives rise to a chain of events ...

Association between one-hour post-load plasma glucose levels and vascular stiffness in essential hypertension [PDF]

, 2012
Objectives: Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a surrogate end-point for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. A plasma glucose value $155 mg/dl for the 1-hour post-load plasma glucose during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is able to identify ...

Advanced glycation end-products, measured as skin autofluorescence, associate with vascular stiffness in diabetic, pre-diabetic and normoglycemic individuals: a cross-sectional study

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2021
Advanced glycation end-products are proteins that become glycated after contact with sugars and are implicated in endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffening. We aimed to investigate the relationships between advanced glycation end-products, measured
