25. Regulating Effect Of Carnosine And /Or L- Arginine On The Expression Of Inflammatory Molecules Induced Nephropathy In The Hypoxic Rat Model
This study aimed to explore the effective role of carnosine and /or L- arginine in down regulation of the inflammatory molecule expression caused renal damage in response to sodium nitrite (NaNO2) induced hypoxia in rats . NaNO2 was administered subcutaneously (s.c.) to rats as a single dose (60 mg/kg body weight ). L-arginine (200mg/Kg body weight) and carn

26. Assessment of endothelial function by flow-mediated dilation in diabetic patients: Effects of physical exercise
Abstract The endothelium is now recognized as an endocrine organ that acts to maintain vascular homeostasis regulating the vascular tone and structure. The endothelial cells synthetize a variety of mediators among them, the main agent is the nitric oxide (NO), a potent vasodilator. NO exerts its protective role preventing leukocyte adhesion and migration, ex

27. Effects of disturbed blood flow during exercise on endothelial function: a time course analysis
This study aimed to examine the time course of endothelial function after a single handgrip exercise session combined with blood flow restriction in healthy young men. Nine participants (28±5.8 years) completed a single session of bilateral dynamic handgrip exercise (20 min with 60% of the maximum voluntary contraction). To induce blood flow restriction, a

28. Acute but not chronic metabolic acidosis potentiates the acetylcholine-induced reduction in blood pressure: an endothelium-dependent effect
Metabolic acidosis has profound effects on vascular tone. This study investigated the in vivo effects of acute metabolic acidosis (AMA) and chronic metabolic acidosis (CMA) on hemodynamic parameters and endothelial function. CMA was induced by ad libitum intake of 1% NH4Cl for 7 days, and AMA was induced by a 3-h infusion of 6 M NH4Cl (1 mL/kg, diluted 1:10)

29. Glutamine treatment attenuates hyperglycemia-induced mitochondrial stress and apoptosis in umbilical vein endothelial cells
OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study was to determine the in vitro effect of glutamine and insulin on apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane potential, cell permeability, and inflammatory cytokines in hyperglycemic umbilical vein endothelial cells.MATERIALS AND METHODS:Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were grown and subjected to glutamine and insulin to examine

30. Circulating E-selectin levels and insulin resistance are associated with early stages of atherosclerosis in nonfunctional adrenal incidentaloma
Objective To evaluate circulating E-selectin levels in patients with nonfunctional adrenal incidentaloma (NFA) in relation to insulin resistance and early atherosclerosis.Subjects and methods A total of 40 patients with NFA (mean [SD] age: 55.6 [10.7] years; 70% were females) and 35 controls (mean [SD] age: 51.5 [8.1] years; 71.4% were females) selected from

31. Receptor expression and responsiveness of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells to a human cytomegalovirus encoded CC chemokine
Human cytomegalovirus is a ubiquitous pathogen that infects the majority of the world's population. After long period of time co-evolving with human being, this pathogen has developed several strategies to evade host immune surveillance. One of the major trick is encoding homologous to those of the host organism or stealing host cellular genes that have sign

32. Long-term, regular remote ischemic preconditioning improves endothelial function in patients with coronary heart disease
Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPre) can prevent myocardial injury. The purpose of this study was to assess the beneficial effects of long-term regular RIPre on human arteries. Forty patients scheduled for coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery were assigned randomly to a RIPre group (n=20) or coronary heart disease (CHD) group (n=20). Twenty pati

33. Klotho: its various functions and association with sickle cell disease subphenotypes
The Klotho protein, whose gene has predominant renal expression, acts in the control of serum phosphorus and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and regulates the function of ion channels. It also participates in the mechanism of protection against oxidative stress and acts on the vascular endothelium by inducing the production of nitric oxide. Mutations that reflect d

34. Low dose of green tea catechins improves endothelial function and vascular smooth muscle cell reactivity in obese women
RESUMO OBJETIVO: A alta prevalência de obesidade no mundo traz vários problemas de saúde com a disfunção endotelial como um problema frequente. Investigamos se o consumo de baixa dose de extrato de chá verde (catequinas < 200 mg/dia) pode modificar a função endotelial, o perfil lipídico, a glicemia e a insulina de jejum, a glicose plasmática pós

35. Coronary artery plaque burden and calcium scores in healthy men adhering to long-term wine drinking or alcohol abstinence
Observational studies suggest there are clinical benefits to moderate red wine (RW) consumption. However, the effects on coronary vasculature and overall lifestyle are unclear. We investigated whether a lifestyle of regular long-term RW consumption is associated with changes in coronary plaque burden, calcium score, carotid intima/media thickness, endothelia

36. Effects of simvastatin/ezetimibe on microparticles, endothelial progenitor cells and platelet aggregation in subjects with coronary heart disease under antiplatelet therapy
It is not known whether the addition of ezetimibe to statins adds cardiovascular protection beyond the expected changes in lipid levels. Subjects with coronary heart disease were treated with four consecutive 1-week courses of therapy (T) and evaluations. The courses were: T1, 100 mg aspirin alone; T2, 100 mg aspirin and 40 mg simvastatin/10 mg ezetimibe; T3
