1 The present work examined the effects of the subtype 2 of angiotensin II (AT(2)) receptors on the pressure-natriuresis using a new peptide agonist, and the possible involvement of cyclic guanosine 3', 5' monophosphate (cyclic GMP) in these effects. 2 In ...
It is generally accepted that the left ventricle (LV) hypertrophies (LVH) to normalize systolic wall stress (sigma(s)) in chronic pressure overload. However, LV filling pressure (P(v)) may be elevated as well, supporting the alternative hypothesis of end-d ...
The contribution deals with the determination of the curves of the annual number of lightning induced flashover vs. the critical impulse flashover voltage of the insulators, used by power engineers for the assessment of the lightning performance of distrib ...
Cyclosporins are a family of hydrophobic cyclic undecapeptides produced by the fungus Tolypocladium niveum. The main metabolite cyclosporin A (CsA, see Scheme, R = R' = H) is the first line drug currently used to prevent rejection of organ transplants. Its ...
To investigate the functional role of different alpha1-adrenergic receptor (alpha1-AR) subtypes in vivo, we have applied a gene targeting approach to create a mouse model lacking the alpha1b-AR (alpha1b-/-). Reverse transcription-PCR and ligand binding stu ...
This study aimed to model phenomenologically the dynamics of arterial wall remodeling under hypertensive conditions. Sustained hypertension was simulated by a step increase in blood pressure. The arterial wall was considered to be a thick-walled tube made ...
Many attempts to engineer cellular metab. have failed due to the complexity of cellular functions. Math. and computational methods are needed that can organize the available exptl. information, and provide insight and guidance for successful metabolic engi ...
In this work we present a mathematical model for the coupling of cardiovascular system and metabolism under sport efforts. Effects such as oxygenation, heart rates, flow rates, blood pressure and mass transfer to tissues will be considered. A special atten ...
A recent study with 69 Japanese liver transplants treated with tacrolimus found that the MDR13435 C >T polymorphism, but not the MDR12677 G >T polymorphism, was associated with differences in the intestinal expression level of CYP3A4 mRNA. In the present s ...
The study aim was to quantify the individual and combined contributions of both the arterial system and the heart to systolic blood pressure in hypertension. We assessed the parameters of a heart-arterial model for normotensive control subjects and hyperte ...
