Chronic Hindlimb Ischemia Impairs Functional Vasodilation and Vascular Reactivity in Mouse Feed Arteries
Vasodilation of lower leg arterioles is impaired in animal models of chronic peripheral ischemia. In addition to arterioles, feed arteries are a critical component of the vascular resistance network, accounting for as much as 50% of the pressure drop across the arterial circulation. Despite the critical importance of feed arteries in blood flow control, the impact of ischemia on feed artery vas...
متن کاملHyperhomocysteinemia impairs angiogenesis in response to hindlimb ischemia.
Hyperhomocysteinemia (HH) is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis, including peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD). Because angiogenesis and collateral vessel formation are important self-salvage mechanisms for ischemic PAOD, we examined whether HH modulates angiogenesis in vivo in a rat model of hindlimb ischemia. Rats were divided into 3 groups: the control group was given ta...
متن کاملVascular reactivity following ischemia/reperfusion.
Data in the literature supports the hypothesis that reactive oxygen species generated in the vascular wall alter vascular regulation. At present the majority of the literature tends to suggest that oxidant induced damage on the smooth muscle cell impair vasoconstriction. However, direct action of oxidants on the smooth muscle cell impair vasoconstrictor function. Differences in studies in the l...
متن کاملDietary salt loading impairs arterial vascular reactivity.
BACKGROUND Studies of sodium have shown improvements in vascular function and blood pressure (BP). The effect of chronic sodium loading from a low-sodium diet to a Western diet on vascular function and BP has been less well studied. OBJECTIVE The objective was to examine the effects of dietary salt intake on vascular function and BP. DESIGN Thirty-five hypertensive volunteers met the inclus...
متن کاملMeasuring the Nitroglycerine-Induced Vasodilation in Carotid Arteries
Introduction: Nitroglycerin is a fast-acting drug that rapidly dilates coronary arteries and thus increases blood flow to these vessels, and increases the blood flow through the lateral vessels to low blood areas. It also reduces both end diastolic pressure and volume of the left ventricular. However, the effect of nitroglycerin on the circulation hemodynamic is not known. Caro...
