Is central nitric oxide essential in hypertension?
It is becoming increasingly evident that central nervous system nitric oxide (NO) may be an important contributor to the development of hypertension in light of its centrally-mediated sympatho-inhibitory actions [1–3]. In this issue of the journal, Ferrari and Fior-Chadi [4] investigate the role of central neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the development of hypertension using the sponta...
متن کاملTeichoic acid is an essential polymer in Bacillus subtilis that is functionally distinct from teichuronic acid.
Wall teichoic acids are anionic, phosphate-rich polymers linked to the peptidoglycan of gram-positive bacteria. In Bacillus subtilis, the predominant wall teichoic acid types are poly(glycerol phosphate) in strain 168 and poly(ribitol phosphate) in strain W23, and they are synthesized by the tag and tar gene products, respectively. Growing evidence suggests that wall teichoic acids are essentia...
متن کاملSodium is more important than calcium in essential hypertension.
There is much circumstantial and some direct evidence in humans to suggest that a high consumption of salt predisposes communities and individuals to the development of essential hypertension. Recent work has suggested possible mechanisms whereby a high salt intake could cause a rise in blood pressure in genetically susceptible persons. Restriction of salt intake in the diet lowers blood pressu...
متن کاملPlasma endothelin is increased in early essential hypertension.
Local vascular generation of endothelin-1 (ET-1) may contribute to elevated peripheral resistance in hypertension. We tested the hypothesis that immunoreactive ET production in the forearm circulation is increased in early essential hypertensive subjects. Ten young, previously untreated male patients with mild essential hypertension and no signs of target organ damage were compared with matched...
متن کاملIs renin a factor in the etiology of essential hypertension?
The widespread clinical study of converting-enzyme inhibitors has shown that they are effective antihypertensive drugs even in patients who may manifest either normal or decreased plasma renin activity. This suggests either that renin in a site other than plasma may play a contributory role in essential hypertension or that the hypotensive effect is caused by increased concentrations of kinins ...
