Nitric oxide activity in the peripheral vasculature during normotensive and preeclamptic pregnancy.
We investigated the role of nitric oxide (NO) in the vascular resistance changes of normotensive and preeclamptic pregnancy. Forearm blood flow (FBF) responses to brachial artery infusion of N G-monomethyl-l-arginine (l-NMMA), an NO synthase inhibitor, and angiotensin II (ANG II), an NO-independent vasoconstrictor, were determined by plethysmography in 20 nonpregnant women, 20 normotensive prim...
متن کاملAssociation of Dietary Patterns during Pregnancy and Cord Blood Nitric Oxide Level with Birth Weight of Newborns
Background: Maternal nutrition during pregnancy affects the birth weight of neonates. Some of the undesirable pregnancy outcomes are linked to lower birth weights. This study aimed to assess the relationship between maternal dietary patterns, weight gain during pregnancy and nitric oxide (NO), as an endothelial relaxing factor, and the possible effects on birth weight.Materials and Methods: At ...
متن کاملDecreased arylesterase activity and increased total oxidative status in rosacea
Rosacea is a chronic, inflammatory disease with exacerbations. The disease affecting the capillary vessels and pilosebaceous unit, is characterized by midfascial erythema, telangiectasia, papules and pustules [1]. It is known four subtypes [2] as erythematotelangiectatic (type I), papulopustular (II), phimatous (III) and ocular rosacea (IV). Pathophysiological mechanism is associated with infla...
متن کاملNitric oxide and pregnancy.
This review will consider whether nitric oxide (NO) contributes to maternal systemic vasodilation during pregnancy, regulates uterine and fetoplacental blood flow, and is involved in uterine quiescence prior to parturition. Also, whether a deficiency of NO contributes to the hypertensive disorder of pregnancy, preeclampsia, will be considered. The biosynthesis of NO increases in gravid rats and...
متن کاملA Relationship Between Insulin Sensitivity and Vasodilatation in Women With a History of Preeclamptic Pregnancy
Women with a history of preeclampsia are characterized by vascular dysfunction and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. In the present study we investigated whether insulin sensitivity is decreased in women with previous preeclampsia and whether it is associated with endothelium-dependent and/or -independent vasodilatation and/or features of metabolic syndrome. Twenty-eight nonobese wom...
