Plasma immunoreactive endothelin-1 in experimental malignant hypertension.
We measured plasma concentrations of immunoreactive endothelin-1 (irET-1) in the prehypertensive and hypertensive phases in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and in malignant hypertension caused by deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt administration in SHR. We also measured concentrations of this peptide in another model of malignant hypertension, the two-kidney, one clip (2K1C) renovasc...
متن کامل[Plasma concentration of big endothelin-1 and its relation with plasma NT-proBNP and ventricular function in heart failure patients].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Elevated plasma concentrations of big endothelin-1 (big ET-1) are related with severity and prognosis in patients with heart failure, and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a marker of ventricular remodeling. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between plasma levels of big ET-1 and NT-proBNP, and between the former and v...
متن کاملSerum immunoreactive leptin concentration and its relation to the body fat content in chronic renal failure.
Leptin, secreted from fat cells, functions as a lipostat mechanism through modulation of satiety signals. The role of leptin in humans has been only partly revealed. However, obese patients have markedly elevated levels of this hormone, and in both normal-weight and obese subjects there is a direct correlation between serum leptin levels and the percentage of body fat. The aim of the present st...
متن کاملThe Effect of Resistance Training on Plasma Levels of Endothelin 1 and Blood Pressure in Older Men
Introduction: Endothelin 1, which is secreted by vascular endothelial cells, has been identified as the most potent vasoconstrictor. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a course of endothelin-1 plasma resistance training and its relationship with blood pressure in older men. Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 30 elderly men (mean age 62.28 ± 8.08 years, height 17...
متن کاملPlasma immunoreactive leptin concentration in end-stage renal disease.
1. Leptin is thought to be an inhibitor of appetite. As the kidney helps clear several polypeptide hormones, plasma leptin may accumulate in end-stage renal disease. 2. Plasma immunoreactive leptin was measured in four groups of subjects: haemodialysis, continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and renal transplant patients and a group of healthy controls. Leptin was also measured before and af...
