Adiponectin and its receptors are involved in hypertensive vascular injury
Adipocyte-derived adiponectin (APN) is involved in the protection against cardiovascular disease, but the endogenous APN and its receptor expression in the perivascular adipocytes and their role in hypertensive vascular injury remain unclear. The present study aimed to detect endogenous APN and its receptor expression and their protective effects against hypertensive vascular injury. APN was ma...
متن کاملInflammation and Vascular Calcification Causing Effects of Oxidized HDL are Attenuated by Adiponectin in Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
The role of oxidized high-density lipoprotein (oxHDL) and the protective effects of adiponectin in terms of vascular calcification is not well established. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of oxHDL with regards to inflammation and vascular calcification and to determine the protective role of adiponectin in attenuating the detrimental effects of oxHDL. Cell viability, mineral...
متن کاملCorrelation of Adiponectin mRNA Abundance and Its Receptors with Quantitative Parameters of Sperm Motility in Rams
Objective Adiponectin and its receptors (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2), known as adiponectin system, have some proven roles in the fat and glucose metabolisms. Several studies have shown that adiponectin can be considered as a candidate in linking metabolism to testicular function. In this regard, we evaluated the correlation between sperm mRNA abundance of adiponectin and its receptors, with sperm moti...
متن کاملCB1 cannabinoid receptors are involved in neuroleptic-induced enhancement of brain neurotensin
Objective(s): Targeting the neuropeptide systems has been shown to be useful for the development of more effective antipsychotic drugs. Neurotensin, an endogenous neuropeptide, appears to be involved in the mechanism of action of antipsychotics. However, the available data provide conflicting results and the mechanism(s) by which antipsychotics affect brain neurotensin neurotransmission have no...
متن کاملAnxiolytic-like Effect of Testosterone in Male Rats: GABAC Receptors Are Not Involved
Objective(s) The effect of testosterone on anxiety-like behaviors has been the subject of some studies. There is evidence that testosterone modulates anxiety via GABA (gama aminobutyric acid) and GABAergic system. The involvement of GABAC receptors in those effects of testosterone on anxiety-like behaviors of the rats was investigated in the present study. Materials and Methods A group of ra...
