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

Substrate stiffness differentially impacts autophagy of endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells
Bioactive Materials, 2021 Stiffening of blood vessels is one of the most important characteristics in the process of many cardiovascular pathologies such as atherosclerosis, angiosteosis, and vascular aging.

Substrate stiffness directs diverging vascular fates [PDF]
Acta Biomaterialia, 2019 Embryonic stem cells (ESC) are excellent cell culture systems for elucidating developmental signals that may be part of the stem cell niche. Although stem cells are traditionally induced using predominately soluble signals, the mechanical environment of the niche can also play a role in directing cells towards differential cell lineages.

Association of vascular stiffness and geriatric syndromes in hypertensive elderly patients
Российский кардиологический журнал, 2021 Aim. To study the relationship of vascular stiffness (cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI)) with frailty and other geriatric syndromes in hypertensive elderly patients.Material and methods. The study included 160 patients aged 60 to 101 years with verified

Arterial Stiffness and Vascular Aging: Effects of Hypertension
Архивъ внутренней медицины, 2021 This review highlights the relationship of age and arterial hypertension observed in the aging process. The main structural and functional changes underlying the increase in vascular stiffness are analyzed. The similarity of vascular changes in aging and

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2021 Objective Cardiac diastolic dysfunction (DD) and arterial stiffness are early manifestations of obesity-associated prediabetes, and both serve as risk factors for the development of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

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 ...

Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2008 Arterial stiffness is recognized increasingly as an important component in the determination of cardiovascular risk, particularly in chronic kidney disease and ESRD populations. Although the technique has been around for nearly 100 yr, in the past 20 to 25 yr, pragmatic noninvasive approaches have allowed the incorporation of arterial stiffness ...

Sodium Intake and Vascular Stiffness in Hypertension [PDF]
Hypertension, 2009 The relationship between sodium and blood pressure (BP) continues to be the focus of intense research. In humans, the impact of sodium on systolic BP (SBP), diastolic BP (DBP), mean BP, and pulse pressure (PP) is currently thought to be quite similar for the 4 pressures and to occur practically with identical consequences (see reviews1–8).
