Enhanced endothelium-dependent vasodilation in Fabry disease.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disease secondary to deficiency of alpha-galactosidase A with resulting glycolipid accumulation, particularly globotriaosylceramide in arterial smooth muscle and endothelial cells. A systemic vasculopathy, including early-onset stroke, is prevalent without a clear pathogenesis. METHODS Seventeen normotensive and normocholes...
متن کاملEnhanced endothelium-dependent vasodilation in older endurance-trained men.
We hypothesized that abnormal endothelium-dependent vasodilation (EDD) found in older otherwise healthy subjects can be attenuated with long-term endurance training. Ten endurance-trained men, 68.5 +/- 2.3 yr old, and 10 healthy sedentary men, 64.7 +/- 1.4 yr old, were studied. Aerobic exercise capacity (VO(2 max)), fasting plasma cholesterol, insulin, and homocysteine concentrations were measu...
متن کاملHyperlipoproteinemia impairs endothelium-dependent vasodilation.
Atherogenic lipoproteins can cause endothelial dysfunction in the initial stage of atherogenesis. In our study we examined 134 patients with defined hyperlipoproteinemia (non-HDL cholesterol>4.1 mmol/l or triglycerides>2.5 mmol/l or taking any of lipid lowering drugs)--94 men and 40 women. The subgroup of controls of comparable age contained 54 normolipidemic individuals--30 men and 24 women. P...
متن کاملAcute hypertension impairs endothelium-dependent vasodilation.
1. Previous investigations have demonstrated an impaired endothelium-dependent vasodilatation (EDV) in patients with hypertension. The present study aimed to investigate if an acute rise in blood pressure to hypertensive levels impairs EDV in otherwise normotensive subjects. 2. Twenty-seven young, healthy, normotensive subjects were studied. Eight of these underwent evaluation of EDV and endoth...
متن کاملNormal pregnancy is associated with enhanced endothelium-dependent flow-mediated vasodilation.
Normal pregnancy is characterized by reduced systemic vascular resistance, which may be mediated by nitric oxide (NO). We compared endothelial vasomotor function in 71 normal pregnant women (13 in first, 29 in middle, and 29 in last trimester) to 37 healthy age-matched controls. With external ultrasound, brachial artery diameter was measured at rest, during reactive hyperemia [with increased fl...
