Obesity and Cardiac Microvascular Function
Introduction: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) reduces weight and long-term cardiovascular risk in obese patients. We showed that endothelial-mediated vasorelaxation improves rapidly in diet-induced obese (DIO) rats within 8 days after RYGB and is associated with reduced activation of JNK independently from weight loss. Purpose: We investigated whether in vivo inhibition of JNK with two differen...
متن کاملHepatocyte growth factor enhances the barrier function in primary cultures of rat brain microvascular endothelial cells.
The effects of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) on barrier functions were investigated by a blood-brain barrier (BBB) in vitro model comprising a primary culture of rat brain capillary endothelial cells (RBEC). In order to examine the response of the peripheral endothelial cells to HGF, human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) and human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HMVEC) wer...
متن کاملRegulation of bovine brain microvascular endothelial tight junction assembly and barrier function by laminar shear stress.
Blood-brain barrier (BBB) controls paracellular solute diffusion into the brain microenvironment and is maintained primarily by tight junctions between adjacent microvascular endothelial cells. Studies implicate blood flow-associated shear stress as a pathophysiological mediator of BBB function, although detailed biochemical data are scarce. We hypothesize that shear stress upregulates BBB func...
متن کاملCerebral Microvascular Injury in Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic cerebral vascular injury (TCVI) is a frequent, perhaps universal, feature after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and may be responsible for for some TBI-related chronic disabilities. Because there are multiple pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic therapies that promote vascular health, TCVI is an attractive target for therapeutic intervention after TBI. The cerebral microvasculature (CMV) ...
متن کاملImmune function of the blood-brain barrier: incomplete presentation of protein (auto-)antigens by rat brain microvascular endothelium in vitro
The endothelial blood-brain barrier (BBB) has a critical role in controlling lymphocyte traffic into the central nervous system (CNS), both in physiological immunosurveillance, and in its pathological aberrations. The intercellular signals that possibly could induce lymphocytes to cross the BBB include immunogenic presentation of protein (auto-)antigens by BBB endothelia to circulating T lympho...
