Sympathetic activation and nitric oxide function in early hypertension.
The purpose of this study was to determine if tonic restrain of blood pressure by nitric oxide (NO) is impaired early in the development of hypertension. Impaired NO function is thought to contribute to hypertension, but it is not clear if this is explained by direct effects of NO on vascular tone or indirect modulation of sympathetic activity. We determined the blood pressure effect of NO synt...
متن کاملNitric oxide opposes glucose-induced hypertension by suppressing sympathetic activity.
We have reported that glucose infusion in L-NAME-treated rats increased arterial pressure more than the additive responses to glucose and L-NAME alone. This suggested that nitric oxide synthesis inhibition potentiated the hypertensive response to chronic glucose infusion, and the heart rate data suggested an important role for the sympathetic nervous system. This study tested the role of the sy...
متن کاملExogenous Nitric Oxide Induced Early Mineralization in Rat Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells via Activation of Alkaline Phosphatase
Background: Since the low concentration and short-time treatment with sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a nitric oxide (NO)–donor, cause no harm to rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), we studied the impact of SNP on MSCs differentiation. Methods: MSCs were treated with 100 and 1000 µM of SNP for 1 hour in every 48 hours and after 5, 10, 15, and 21 days in osteogenic media. The viability an...
متن کاملNitric oxide and pulmonary hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension is a serious complication of a number of lung and heart diseases that is characterized by peripheral vascular structural remodeling and loss of vascular tone. Nitric oxide can modulate vascular injury and interrupt elevation of pulmonary vascular resistance selectively; however, it can also produce cytotoxic oxygen radicals and exert cytotoxic and antiplatelet effects. Th...
متن کاملAssociation between Genetic Variants of Nitric Oxide/cGMP Pathway and Susceptibility to Hypertension in Kermanshah Province
Background and purpose: Hypertension is a global health challenge due to its high prevalence and increased risk of cardiovascular disease. It is a multifactorial disease in which both genetic and environmental factors are involved. So far, a number of genes and pathways have been proposed to be associated with HTN, including the nitric oxide/cGMP pathway. To further clarify the role of NO /cGM...
