Hypercholesterolemia enhances oxidant production in mesenteric venules exposed to Ischemia/Reperfusion.
It has been shown that hypercholesterolemia (HCh) exaggerates the microvascular dysfunction that is elicited by ischemia and reperfusion (I/R). The objective of this study was to determine whether oxidants contribute to the exaggerated inflammatory responses and enhanced albumin leakage observed in HCh rat mesenteric venules exposed to I/R (10 minutes of ischemia and 30 minutes of reperfusion)....
متن کاملPlatelet-endothelial interactions in inflamed mesenteric venules.
The selectins are membrane glycoproteins promoting adhesive events between leukocytes, platelets, and endothelial cells. We have previously demonstrated that platelets roll on P-selectin expressed on stimulated endothelium. In this study, we wished to examine the function of both the platelet and endothelial selectins, P- and E-selectins, in mediating platelet-endothelial interactions during in...
متن کاملThrombin increases permeability only in venules exposed to inflammatory conditions.
Thrombin is widely used to stimulate a variety of responses in cultured endothelial cell monolayers as a model of acute vascular endothelial response to inflammatory mediators. However, preliminary results indicated that rat mesenteric venules did not respond acutely to thrombin. We tested the hypothesis that rat venules would respond to thrombin 24 h after prior injury by microperfusion. Vesse...
متن کاملInvolvement of NADPH oxidase in high-dose phenolic acid-induced pro-oxidant activity on rat mesenteric venules
In the present study, we investigated the potential role of phenolic acids in initiating oxidative damage to microvascular endothelial cells and the underlying mechanism mediating the pro-oxidant action. Male Wistar rats received high doses of phenolic acid [caffeic acid (CA), salvianolic acid B (SAB), chlorogenic acid (ChA) or ferulic acid (FA)]. The creation of reactive oxygen species in mese...
متن کاملAre Responsible for Preferential Leukocyte Rolling in Rat Mesenteric Venules
At the onset of the inflammatory process, leukocytes roll along venular but not arteriolar walls before they firmly attach and emigrate. To test whether differences in hydrodynamic flow conditions are responsible for the preferential occurrence of leukocyte rolling in venules, we varied wall shear rate, 'Yw, between 30 and 2,000 sec` by selective micro-occlusion of side branches in venules and ...
