Based on our previous results, we investigated whether cyclosporin A (CsA)-induced vasopressin type 1A receptor up-regulation was mediated by free radicals. We report that CsA analogues with different affinities for cyclophilin and calcineurin were able to ...
Targeted disruption of the retinoblastoma gene in mice leads to embryonic lethality in midgestation accompanied by defective erythropoiesis. Rb(-/-) embryos also exhibit inappropriate cell cycle activity and apoptosis in the central nervous system (CNS), p ...
Acute and long-term (up to 56 days) evolution of geometry, structural properties, vascular smooth muscle (VSM) tone and histomorphometric properties of the rat common carotid arteries under induced hypertension were investigated. Hypertension was induced i ...
We studied the changes in vascular smooth muscle (VSM) cell tone during the adaptation of rat common carotids to induced hypertension. Hypertension was induced in 8 week old male Wistar rats by total ligation of the aorta between the two kidneys. Mean bloo ...
Investigating the recruitment and synchronization of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) is the key to understanding the physical mechanisms leading to contraction and spontaneous diameter oscillations of arteries, called vasomotion. We improved a method that allow ...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-alpha is a member of a large nuclear receptor superfamily whose main role is to activate genes involved in fatty acid oxidation in the liver, heart, kidney, and skeletal muscle. While currently used mainly ...
Previous research in arterial remodeling in response to changes in blood pressure seldom included both hyper- and hypotension. To compare the effects of low and high pressure on arterial remodeling and vascular smooth muscle tone and performance, we have u ...
Vascular remodeling is defined as any enduring change in the size and composition of an adult blood vessel, allowing adaptation or repair. The vascular remodeling response has been shown to depend on a variety of endogenous and environmental factors. Physi ...
We recorded basic gait features and associated patterns of leg muscle activity, occurring during continuous body progression when humans walked along a curved trajectory, in order to gain insight into the nervous mechanisms underlying the control of the as ...
In this study, we defined the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta/delta (PPARdelta) in metabolic homeostasis by using subtype selective agonists. Analysis of rat L6 myotubes treated with the PPARdelta subtype-selective agonist, GW501516 ...
