Target Organ Damage in Hypertension
This special issue is related to the main concern in hyper-tensive disease: the target-organ damage. The selected papers approach some aspects of renal and cerebral disease associated to hypertension but the principal focus is on the arterial vessel as the main organ involved in hypertensive patients. Although hypertensive cardiopathy is not specifically included in this issue, the heart diseas...
متن کاملTarget Organ Damage in Essential Hypertension
Epidemiological data suggests that hypertension remains a major modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease in Western countries. The prevalence of the disease among adults in Slovenia aged 25–64 years is between 40–50% (CINDI, 2006). The early detection and severity of typical target organ damage and secondary diseases are key determinants of cardiovascular prognosis in patients sufferin...
متن کاملPI3Kg in hypertension: a novel therapeutic target controlling vascular myogenic tone and target organ damage
In the past decade, several studies have characterized a number of cellular and molecular mechanisms that contribute to the regulation of the vascular myogenic response, thus affecting blood pressure regulation. Recently, phosphoinositide 3-kinase g (PI3Kg) has been identified as a main regulator of vascular myogenic tone and blood pressure, a result further strengthened by a highly significant...

متن کاملHypertension Highlights Immunology in Hypertension, Preeclampsia, and Target-Organ Damage
Hypertension generally brings to mind hemodynamic mechanisms, increased peripheral vascular resistance, the laws of Ohm or Hagen-Poisseule, and perhaps targetorgan damage mediated through acceleration of atherosclerosis, vasculitis, or other concomitant processes. However, innate and acquired adaptive cellular or even antibodymediated immunity plays an active role in the pathogenesis of hyperte...
