Contribution of EDRF and EDHF to restoration of endothelial function following dietary restrictions in hypercholesterolemic rats.
The mechanisms underlying the impairment of endothelium-mediated vasorelaxation induced by dietary hypercholesterolemia and the mechanisms of restoration of endothelial function following reintroduction of low cholesterol diet were evaluated. Feeding rats with high cholesterol diet induced hypercholesterolemia and high blood pressure. This was associated with reduced vasorelaxation in response ...
متن کاملcompactifications and function spaces on weighted semigruops
chapter one is devoted to a moderate discussion on preliminaries, according to our requirements. chapter two which is based on our work in (24) is devoted introducting weighted semigroups (s, w), and studying some famous function spaces on them, especially the relations between go (s, w) and other function speces are invesigated. in fact this chapter is a complement to (32). one of the main fea...
15 صفحه اولEffect of nitrous oxide anesthesia on plasma homocysteine and endothelial function.
BACKGROUND Endothelial function is impaired with hyperhomocysteinemia. Plasma homocysteine is increased by nitrous oxide anesthesia. The current study was designed to determine whether endothelial function is impaired after surgery and whether this is made worse by exposure to nitrous oxide. METHODS The authors studied 59 patients with cardiovascular disease undergoing noncardiac surgery. Pat...
متن کاملDoes folic acid decrease plasma homocysteine and improve endothelial function in patients with predialysis renal failure?
BACKGROUND Considerable evidence suggests that hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent vascular risk factor that promotes atherosclerosis by inducing endothelial dysfunction. Although folic acid reduces hyperhomocysteinemia, the effect on adverse vascular events is unknown. We hypothesized that in patients with chronic renal failure, a condition associated with both hyperhomocysteinemia and athe...
متن کاملAtherosclerosis or lipoprotein-induced endothelial dysfunction. Potential mechanisms underlying reduction in EDRF/nitric oxide activity.
A ctivation of endothelial cells by physical, chemical , and hormonal stimuli can result in the release of a number of vasoactive mediators.1 Under physiological conditions, mediator release appears to be balanced in favor of inhibitory factors such as endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF, identified as nitric oxide) and prostacyclin (PGI2) (Figure 1).'-3 EDRF-NO and PGI have important pro...
