Epidemiological investigations clearly pointed out that hypertension is a powerful cardiovascular risk factor. Elevated blood pressure levels have been found to be highly predictive of cardiovascular events, including ischemic coronary disease, stroke, and peripheral arterial disease.1 These ischemic cardiovascular events have a predominant vascular origin resulting from atherosclerosis.

متن کاملNLRP6 as a Negative Regulator of Innate Immunity
Nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptors (NLRs) play important role in immune responses by regulating nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB), type I interferon and inflammasomes. Nod-like receptor pyrin domain-containing protein 6 (NLRP6) is vital for protection of mice from colitis and colorectal tumorigenesis. However, the role of NLRP...
متن کامل[Ultraviolet: a regulator of immunity].
Humans establish acquired immune systems during the growth, which can sufficiently eliminate pathogen avoiding immune responses to self, such as allergy and autoimmunity. An imbalance of the acquired immune system leads up to immune-mediated disorders. Ultraviolet (UV) exposure helps to establish the normal peripheral tolerance to contact allergen avoiding excessive immune responses. By contras...
