Inflammation, immunity, and hypertensive end-organ damage.
For >50 years, it has been recognized that immunity contributes to hypertension. Recent data have defined an important role of T cells and various T cell-derived cytokines in several models of experimental hypertension. These studies have shown that stimuli like angiotensin II, deoxycorticosterone acetate-salt, and excessive catecholamines lead to formation of effector like T cells that infiltr...
متن کاملPortal hypertensive gastropathy a clinically significant puzzle
In this review the updated information concerning the influence of portal hypertension on gastric mucosa is presented. The term portal hypertensive gastropathy [PHG] defines a wide spectrum of endoscopic lesions that appear in the gastric mucosa of cirrhotic patients and which should be differentiated from gastric antral vascular ectasia. These endoscopic findings correspond to dilated mucosal ...

متن کاملRelationship between baroreceptor reflex function and end-organ damage in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
The purpose of this study was to further illustrate the relationship between baroreceptor reflex sensitivity (BRS) and hypertensive end-organ damage (EOD) and to test the hypothesis that impairment of BRS aggravates EOD in hypertension. We studied baroreflex-mediated changes in heart rate [expressed as baroreceptor sensitivity to heart rate control (BRSHR)] and blood pressure [expressed as baro...
