Effects of tempol on renal medullary tissue hypoxia in an ovine model of Gram‐negative septic acute kidney injury

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Renal arterial infusion of tempol (RAT) at the onset of Gram‐negative sepsis can prevent sepsis‐induced medullary tissue hypoxia and acute kidney injury (AKI). However, it is not known whether treatment with tempol at a clinically relevant time point of sepsis is similarly effective. Thus, we examined whether tempol can reverse renal medullary

Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...

Differential sensitivity of basal and acetylcholine-induced activity of nitric oxide to blockade by asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) in the rat aorta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
<b>Background and purpose</b>: Previous work has shown that NG-monomethyl-l-arginine (l-NMMA) paradoxically inhibits basal, but not ACh-stimulated activity of nitric oxide in rat aorta.

ISA‐vasodilatation: improvement of organ perfusion. [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1987
1. In almost all forms of established hypertension the increase in blood pressure can be attributed to increased total peripheral vascular resistance. 2. beta‐adrenoceptor blocking compounds, which are frequently used as first‐line therapy in hypertension, may compromise blood flow to vital organs in view of the fact that they reduce cardiac output ...

Nitrite supplementation alleviates cerebrovascular dysfunction in chronically stressed mice, but cognitive decline remains

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aimed to determine whether sodium nitrite supplementation prevented chronic stress‐induced cerebrovascular dysfunction and cognitive decline. We hypothesize that nitrite supplementation will prevent the oxidative environment and cerebrovascular dysfunction associated with chronic stress and maintain cognitive health.

Effects of thyroxine replacement on endothelial function and carotid artery intima-media thickness in female patients with mild subclinical hypothyroidism

open access: yesClinics, 2011
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have suggested an association between subclinical hypothyroidism and coronary artery disease that could be related to changes in serum lipids or endothelial dysfunction.

Robert F. Furchgott, Nobel laureate (1916-2009) - a personal reflection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Robert F. Furchgott, pharmacologist and joint winner of the Nobel Prize for Medicine or Physiology (1998) died on the 12th of May 2009 aged 92. By unlocking the astonishingly diverse biological actions of nitric oxide, Furchgott leaves behind a rich ...

Endothelial dysfunction: a comprehensive appraisal

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2006
The endothelium is a thin monocelular layer that covers all the inner surface of the blood vessels, separating the circulating blood from the tissues. It is not an inactive organ, quite the opposite.

Influence of estimated training status on anti and pro-oxidant activity, nitrite concentration, and blood pressure in middle-aged and older women [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The purpose of this study was to compare the association between anti and pro-oxidant activity, nitrite concentration, and blood pressure (BP) in middle-aged and older women with different levels of estimated training status (TS). The sample consisted of
