Role of perivascular adipose tissue-derived methyl palmitate in vascular tone regulation and pathogenesis of hypertension.
BACKGROUND Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT)-derived relaxing factor (PVATRF) significantly regulates vascular tone. Its chemical nature remains unknown. We determined whether palmitic acid methyl ester (PAME) was the PVATRF and whether its release and/or vasorelaxing activity decreased in hypertension. METHODS AND RESULTS Using superfusion bioassay cascade technique, tissue bath myography, ...
متن کاملP-365 Visceral Perivascular Adipose Tissue Regulates Arterial Tone of Small Mesenteric Arteries
Increased visceral adipose tissue in obesity is associated with adverse cardiovascular events and hypertension. Visceral adipose tissue surrounds mesenteric arteries and may produce vasoactive substances that influence vascular contraction. We tested the hypothesis that perivascular adipose tissue modulates contraction of small, resistance-sized mesenteric artery ring preparations. We studied m...
متن کاملPerivascular adipose tissue contains functional catecholamines
The sympathetic nervous system and its neurotransmitter effectors are undeniably important to blood pressure control. We made the novel discovery that perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) contains significant concentrations of catecholamines. We hypothesized that PVAT contains sufficient releasable catecholamines to affect vascular function. HPLC, isometric contractility, immunohistochemistry, wh...
متن کاملPerivascular adipose tissue, vascular reactivity and hypertension.
Most blood vessels are surrounded by a variable amount of adventitial adipose tissue, perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT), which was originally thought to provide mechanical support for the vessel. It is now known that PVAT secretes a number of bioactive substances including vascular endothelial growth factor, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), leptin, adiponectin, insulin-like growth factor, ...
متن کاملPerivascular adipose tissue and coronary vascular disease.
Coronary perivascular adipose tissue is a naturally occurring adipose tissue depot that normally surrounds the major coronary arteries on the surface of the heart. Although originally thought to promote vascular health and integrity, there is a growing body of evidence to support that coronary perivascular adipose tissue displays a distinct phenotype relative to other adipose depots and is capa...
