Pregnancy/Preeclampsia Evidence for Increased Methylglyoxal in the Vasculature of Women With Preeclampsia Role in Upregulation of LOX-1 and Arginase

Preeclampsia is characterized by vascular endothelial dysfunction partly attributed to oxidative stress. In the vasculature of preeclamptic women, we have shown increased lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1 (LOX-1) and arginase expression, which can contribute to vascular oxidative stress. However, the mechanisms of such upregulation are unknown. Methylglyoxal (MG) that play...

Angiotensin II-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction through RhoA/Rho kinase/p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase/arginase pathway.

Enhanced vascular arginase activity impairs endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation by decreasing l-arginine availability to endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase, thereby reducing NO production. Elevated angiotensin II (ANG II) is a key component of endothelial dysfunction in many cardiovascular diseases and has been linked to elevated arginase activity. We determined signaling mechanisms by whi...

The roles of potassium channels in contractile response to urotensin-II in mercury chloride induced endothelial dysfunction in rat aorta

Urotensin-II (U-II), the most potent vasoconstrictor that has recently been recognized as a new candidate in cardiovascular dysfunction, might exert vasoconstriction through, at least partially, potassium channels that are predominant in both endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). The present study was designed to evaluate the roles of potassium channels in vascular responses to ...

Mitochondrial arginase II modulates nitric-oxide synthesis through nonfreely exchangeable L-arginine pools in human endothelial cells.

Reduced synthesis of nitric oxide (NO) contributes to the endothelial dysfunction and may be related to limited availability of L-arginine, the common substrate of constitutive nitric-oxide synthase (NOS) and cytosolic arginase I and mitochondrial arginase II. To determine whether arginases modulate the endothelial NO synthesis, we investigated the effects of the competitive arginase inhibitor ...
