Acrolein Exposure Is Associated With Increased Cardiovascular Disease Risk
BACKGROUND Acrolein is a reactive aldehyde present in high amounts in coal, wood, paper, and tobacco smoke. It is also generated endogenously by lipid peroxidation and the oxidation of amino acids by myeloperoxidase. In animals, acrolein exposure is associated with the suppression of circulating progenitor cells and increases in thrombosis and atherogenesis. The purpose of this study was to det...
متن کاملPlatelet activation by collagen is increased in retinal vein occlusion.
Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is the most common retinal vascular disorder second to diabetic retinopathy. The main risk factors in patients with RVO are hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, increased blood viscosity and glaucoma. The pathogenesis of RVO has not yet been clarified. In these events platelets could play a very important role. In the present study the platelet response to collag...
متن کاملThe sensitivity of GABA-receptor is increased by biogenic amines.
The sensitivity of nicotinic ACh (acetylcholine) -receptor to its agonist has been recently reported to be depressed or increased by the action of transmitters other than ACh (Akasu et al. 1981a, b; Koketsu et al. 1982b). These experimental obser vations led to a new concept, namely that, under physiological conditions, the sensitivity of nicotinic ACh-receptor can be modulated by the actions o...
متن کاملIncreased platelet sensitivity to ADP in mice lacking platelet-type 12-lipoxygenase.
Arachidonic acid metabolism is one of several mechanisms culminating in the production of an agonist for platelet activation and recruitment. Although the proaggregatory role of thromboxane A2, a product of the aspirin-inhibitable cyclooxygenase, is well established, relatively little is known regarding the biological importance of arachidonic acid metabolism via the 12-lipoxygenase (P-12LO) pa...
متن کاملIncreased postexercise insulin sensitivity is accompanied by increased AS160 phosphorylation in slow‐twitch soleus muscle
A single bout of exercise can enhance insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in both fast-twitch (type II) and slow-twitch (type I) skeletal muscle for several hours postexercise. Akt substrate of 160 kDa (AS160) is most distal insulin signaling proteins that have been proposed to contribute to the postexercise enhancement of insulin action in fast-twitch muscle. In this study, we examined whether t...
