Monoamine oxidases are mediators of endothelial dysfunction in the mouse aorta.
Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) generate H(2)O(2) as a by-product of their catalytic cycle. Whether MAOs are mediators of endothelial dysfunction is unknown and was determined here in the angiotensin II and lipopolysaccharide-models of vascular dysfunction in mice. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction revealed that mouse aortas contain enzymes involved in catecholamine generation and MAO-...
متن کاملThe roles of potassium channels in contractile response to urotensin-II in mercury chloride induced endothelial dysfunction in rat aorta
Urotensin-II (U-II), the most potent vasoconstrictor that has recently been recognized as a new candidate in cardiovascular dysfunction, might exert vasoconstriction through, at least partially, potassium channels that are predominant in both endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). The present study was designed to evaluate the roles of potassium channels in vascular responses to ...

متن کاملNigella sativa seed decreases endothelial dysfunction in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat aorta
Objective: Diabetes is an important risk factor for cardiovascular events. The great percent of morbidity in patients with diabetes is due to endothelial dysfunction. The present study investigated the effects of hydroalcholic extract of Nigella sativa (N. sativa) on contractile and dilatation response of isolated aorta in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rat. Materials and Methods: Rats ...
متن کاملMolecular properties of the monoamine oxidases.
To understand the biological significance of a decreased platelet MAO activity in schizophrenia, it is important to answer many questions about the basic molecular properties of the enzyme. The past decade has witnessed a huge expansion of research in this area which has provided some of these answers. A wide variety of experimental evidence strongly supports the concept of two forms of MAO (ty...
