Role of Arginase in Vessel Wall Remodeling
Arginase metabolizes the semi-essential amino acid l-arginine to l-ornithine and urea. There are two distinct isoforms of arginase, arginase I and II, which are encoded by separate genes and display differences in tissue distribution, subcellular localization, and molecular regulation. Blood vessels express both arginase I and II but their distribution appears to be cell-, vessel-, and species-...
متن کاملSuperoxide Dismutase Isoforms in the Vessel Wall
Blood vessels express 3 isoforms of superoxide dismutase (SOD): cytosolic or copper-zinc SOD (CuZn-SOD), manganese SOD (Mn-SOD) localized in mitochondria, and an extracellular form of CuZn-SOD (EC-SOD). Because there are no selective pharmacological inhibitors of individual SOD isoforms, the functional importance of the different SODs has been difficult to define. Recent molecular approaches, p...
متن کاملSeverely Damaged Vessel Wall in Arterial Thrombosis
Background Coronary thrombosis is a dynamic process dependent on the pathological substrate, the local shear forces, and blood factors. Methods and Results We investigated the effect of a severe (80%) eccentric stenosis on fibrin(ogen) interaction with a deeply damaged vessel wall, its relation to platelet deposition in thrombus formation, and the influence of time on thrombus growth. Porcine '...
متن کاملCell Death in the Vessel Wall
Atherosclerotic vascular disease results from an imbalance of inflammatory and vascular cell accumulation and removal in the neointimal space. When pathways that promote cell recruitment, survival, and proliferation are favored over to those that activate cell death, egress, and clearance, the plaque expands. In contrast, programmed cell death and the efficient clearance of apoptotic bodies by ...
متن کاملCapillary vessel wall in CADASIL angiopathy.
The study was aimed at investigating the morphology of capillaries in four skin and muscle biopsy specimens obtained from CADASIL patients. In all cases diagnosis confirmed at the ultrastructural level, and additionally in three cases, the genetic test revealed the Notch3 gene mutations. Using histological and immunohistochemical (IHC) markers for components of capillary vessel wall we showed t...
