Cerebral vasomotor reactivity and apnea test in symptomatic and asymptomatic high-grade carotid stenosis [PDF]
Introduction. Cerebral vasomotor reactivity (VMR) represents an autoregulatory response of the arterial trunks on the specific vasoactive stimuli, most commonly CO2. Objective. The aim of this retrospective study was to compare VMR in high-grade

Mind-body interventions for vasomotor symptoms in healthy menopausal women and breast cancer survivors. A systematic review [PDF]
Mind-body therapies are commonly recommended to treat vasomotor symptoms, such as hot flushes and night sweats (HFNS). The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate the available evidence to date for the efficacy of different mind-body therapies ...

GPR37L1 is a family A orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) with a putative role in blood pressure regulation and cardioprotection. In mice, genetic ablation of Gpr37l1 causes sex-dependent effects; female mice lacking Gpr37l1 (GPR37L1−/−) have a ...

Upregulation of inducible NO synthase by exogenous adenosine in vascular smooth muscle cells activated by inflammatory stimuli in experimental diabetes [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Adenosine has been shown to induce nitric oxide (NO) production via inducible NO synthase (iNOS) activation in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Although this is interpreted as a beneficial vasodilating pathway in vaso-occlusive disorders,

Statins and Cerebral Vasomotor Reactivity [PDF]
See related article, pages 2540-2545. Animal models have shown that cholesterol-lowering therapy with 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors (commonly called statins) may augment absolute cerebral blood flow (CBF) by enhancing nitric oxide synthase (eNOS).1 Statins upregulate type III endothelial eNOS in thrombocytes, decrease ...
