Long-term endothelin receptor blockade improves cardiovascular function in diabetes.
To evaluate the potential contribution of endothelin-1 (ET-1) toward the cardiovascular complications of diabetes, the present study examined the effects of chronic ET receptor blockade with bosentan on heart function and vascular reactivity in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Wistar rats were divided into four groups: control, control bosentan-treated, diabetic, and diabetic bosenta...
متن کاملHeart cell transplantation improves heart function in dilated cardiomyopathic hamsters.
BACKGROUND Little is known about the effect of heart cell transplantation into the dilated cardiomyopathic myocardium. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of heart cell transplantation into dilated cardiomyopathic hamsters. METHODS AND RESULTS Ventricular heart cells were isolated from 4-week-old BIO 53. 58 hamsters and cultured for 2 weeks before transplantation. The cells were la...
متن کاملExercise training improves peripheral chemoreflex function in heart failure rabbits.
An enhancement of peripheral chemoreflex sensitivity contributes to sympathetic hyperactivity in chronic heart failure (CHF) rabbits. The enhanced chemoreflex function in CHF involves augmented carotid body (CB) chemoreceptor activity via upregulation of the angiotensin II (ANG II) type 1 (AT(1))-receptor pathway and downregulation of the neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS)-nitric oxide (NO) ...
متن کاملTongxinluo Improves Apolipoprotein E-Deficient Mouse Heart Function
Background Our previous studies have shown that Tongxinluo (TXL), a compound Chinese medicine, can decrease myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, protect capillary endothelium function, and lessen cardiac ventricle reconstitution in animal models. The aim of this study was to illuminate whether TXL can improve hypercholesterolemia-impaired heart function by protecting artery endothelial funct...
متن کاملGinsenoside Rb1 improves cardiac function and remodeling in heart failure
We investigated the effect of ginsenoside Rb1 on cardiac function and remodeling in heart failure (HF). Four weeks after HF induction, the rats were administrated with ginsenoside Rb1 (35 and 70 mg/kg) and losartan (4.5 mg/kg) for 8 weeks. Losartan was used as a positive control. Cardiac function was assessed by measuring hemodynamic parameters. Histological changes were analyzed by HE and Mass...
