Efficacy and safety of oral pulmonary vasodilators in pulmonary veno‐occlusive disease

Pulmonary Circulation, 2022
Pulmonary veno‐occlusive disease (PVOD) or pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis (PCH) is a rare subtype of pulmonary hypertension with dismal prognosis.

Safranal Induces Vasorelaxation by Inhibiting Ca²⁺ Influx and Na⁺/Ca²⁺ Exchanger in Isolated Rat Aortic Rings

Molecules, 2022
Introduction: Safranal, which endows saffron its unique aroma, causes vasodilatation and has a hypotensive effect in animal studies, but the mechanisms of these effects are unknown.

Comparative Study of Different H₂S Donors as Vasodilators and Attenuators of Superoxide-Induced Endothelial Damage

Antioxidants, 2023
In the last years, research proofs have confirmed that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) plays an important role in various physio-pathological processes, such as oxidation, inflammation, neurophysiology, and cardiovascular protection; in particular, the protective

The key role of nitric oxide in hypoxia: hypoxic vasodilation and energy supply-demand matching [PDF]

, 2013
Significance: a mismatch between energy supply and demand induces tissue hypoxia with the potential to cause cell death and organ failure. Whenever arterial oxygen concentration is reduced, increases in blood flow - 'hypoxic vasodilation' - occur in an ...

Alpha1 -adrenergic stimulation selectively enhances endothelium-mediated vasodilation in rat cremaster arteries. [PDF]

, 2018
We have systematically investigated how vascular smooth muscle α1 -adrenoceptor activation impacts endothelium-mediated vasodilation in isolated, myogenically active, rat cremaster muscle 1A arteries.

Collateral Arteriogenesis Involves a Sympathetic Denervation That Is Associated With Abnormal α-Adrenergic Signaling and a Transient Loss of Vascular Tone

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Stimulating collateral arteriogenesis is an attractive therapeutic target for peripheral artery disease (PAD). However, the potency of arteriogenesis-stimulation in animal models has not been matched with efficacy in clinical trials.

Multidisciplinary Consideration of Potential Pathophysiologic Mechanisms of Paradoxical Erythema with Topical Brimonidine Therapy. [PDF]

, 2016
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory disease with transient and non-transient redness as key characteristics. Brimonidine is a selective α2-adrenergic receptor (AR) agonist approved for persistent facial erythema of rosacea based on significant efficacy and

The role of ADAM17 in cerebrovascular and cognitive function in the APP/PS1 mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionThe disintegrin and metalloproteinase 17 (ADAM17) exhibits α-secretase activity, whereby it can prevent the production of neurotoxic amyloid precursor protein-α (APP).

Aging and aerobic fitness affect the contribution of noradrenergic sympathetic nerves to the rapid cutaneous vasodilator response to local heating [PDF]

, 2011
Sedentary aging results in a diminished rapid cutaneous vasodilator response to local heating. We investigated whether this diminished response was due to altered contributions of noradrenergic sympathetic nerves; assessing 1) the age-related decline and,
