Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract This narrative review highlights the impact of exercise on vascular health in females over the lifespan with an emphasis on puberty, pregnancy and menopause. These events encompass substantial changes in sex hormone levels, particularly oestrogens and progesterone.

Vasomotion of mice mesenteric arteries during low oxygen levels
European Journal of Medical Research, 2018 Background Ischemia of intestinal organs is a main cause of complications in surgical intensive care patients. Changes in the tonus of arteries contributing to vascular resistance play an important role in the determination of blood flow and thus oxygen ...

The therapeutic role of exercise training during menopause for reducing vascular disease
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Menopause marks a major milestone in female reproductive ageing. It is characterized by the cessation of ovarian function and a concomitant decline in hormones such as oestradiol. Subsequently, females undergoing menopausal transition experience a progressive increase in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease risk.

Migratory vasodilatation of cerebral arteries in MELAS episodes: a case report and literature review
Frontiers in ImmunologyMitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) is the commonest inherited mitochondrial disorder. Dilation of the major cerebral arteries is seldom mentioned in MELAS because magnetic resonance angiography (MRA ...

Microvascular function is impaired in ankylosing spondylitis and improves after tumour necrosis factor a blockade [PDF]
, 2009 Objectives: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Microvascular function has been linked to several risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Inflammation in AS may cause microvascular dysfunction.

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Migraine and motion sickness: what is the link? [PDF]
, 2010 The brainstem is a structurally complex region, containing numerous ascending and descending fibres that converge on centres that regulate bodily functions essential to life. Afferent input from the cranial tissues and the special senses is processed, in

Endoglin regulates nitric oxide‐dependent vasodilatation
The FASEB Journal, 2004 Endoglin is a membrane glycoprotein that plays an important role in cardiovascular development and angiogenesis. We examined the role of endoglin in the control of vascular tone by measuring nitric oxide (NO)‐dependent vasodilation in haploinsufficient mice ( Eng +/− ) and
