Endothelial dysfunction, isoprostanes, and copper deficiency.
Endothelial Dysfunction, Isoprostanes, and Copper Deficiency To the Editor: Following the tradition of using animal experiments to clarify and illustrate human pathology, Lavi et al1 sought similarities between people with ischemic heart disease and animals fed cholesterol. They detected a decreased effect of acetylcholine on coronary arteries in 8 of 20 angiogram patients with minimal coronary...
متن کاملOxidative stress , F - isoprostanes and endothelial dysfunction in 2 hypercholesterolemia
See article by Wilson et al. [9] (pages 601 –607) in this attenuated by pretreatment with L-arginine or the NO issue. donor NOR-3. These observations suggest a tonic vasoconstrictor activity dynamically opposed by NO, with the net vasomotor effect resulting from the balance of the two
متن کاملPin1 deficiency causes endothelial dysfunction and hypertension.
Pin1 is a peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerase that only binds to and isomerizes phosphorylated serine/threonine-proline motifs, inducing conformational changes that alter target protein function and phosphorylation. We have shown previously that deficiency of another peptidyl prolyl isomerase, FK506 binding protein 12/12.6, alters endothelial NO synthase phosphorylation and causes endothelial d...
متن کاملMagnesium deficiency and endothelial dysfunction: is oxidative stress involved?
Low magnesium (Mg) has been associated with oxidative stress, an important player in aging, atherosclerosis and other vascular diseases. In vivo, low Mg and immune system activation seem to cooperate to promote endothelial dysfunction. We therefore evaluated whether exposure of human endothelial cells to low Mg in vitro determines oxidative stress features. We therefore measured intracellular r...
متن کاملIL-10 deficiency increases superoxide and endothelial dysfunction during inflammation.
Little is known about the role of interleukin-10 (IL-10), an anti-inflammatory cytokine, in blood vessels. We used IL-10-deficient mice (IL-10 -/-) to examine the hypothesis that IL-10 protects endothelial function after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment. The responses of carotid arteries were studied in vitro 6 h after injection of a relatively low dose of LPS (10 microgram ip). In IL-10 -/- ...
