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 ...
Although APP mutations associated with inherited forms of Alzheimer's disease (AD) are relatively rare, detailed studies of these mutations may prove critical for gaining important insights into the mechanism(s) and etiology of AD. Here, we present a detai ...
Current treatment for atherosclerotic heart disease consists mainly of the administration of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors or 'statin' class of drugs. Statins, which lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels an ...
A novel concept for triggering conformational transitions, and thus changes in structure and function, in peptides with a switching element S provides intriguing perspectives for studying mol. processes that play a key role, for example, in early events of ...
Introduction: In this study the effect of subthalamic nucleus neep brain Stimulation (STN-DBS) on the gait parameters of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) was examined using an ambulatory gait analysis system based on miniature gyroscopes. The aim was ...
BACKGROUND: The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) plays an important role in the metabolism of lipoproteins and fatty acids, and seems to protect against the development of atherosclerosis. To evaluate the possible protective rol ...
Hexyl aminolevulinate (HAL) fluorescence cystoscopy is being investigated as a new diagnostic tool for the detection of flat urothelial malignancies in bladder cancers. However, the influence of the bladder instillation time on the performance of this dete ...
The author discusses the development of mathematical models for the flow of blood in the human circulatory system. By necessity, such a model of a living system must include several simplifications, ignore some factors, and make several assumptions. This i ...
Aortic compliance and pulse wave velocity (PWV) are important determiners of heart load, and are clinically useful indices of cardiovascular risk. Most direct methods to derive them require invasive pressure measurement. In this work a noninvasive techniqu ...
A common feature of many metabolic pathways is their control by retinoid X receptor (RXR) heterodimers. Dysregulation of such metabolic pathways can lead to the development of atherosclerosis, a disease influenced by both systemic and local factors. Here w ...
