Amiloride Improves Endothelial Function and Reduces Vascular Stiffness in Female Mice Fed a Western Diet
Obese premenopausal women lose their sex related cardiovascular disease protection and develop greater arterial stiffening than age matched men. In female mice, we have shown that consumption of a Western diet (WD), high in fat and refined sugars, is associated with endothelial dysfunction and vascular stiffening, which occur via activation of mineralocorticoid receptors and associated increase...
متن کاملXanthine oxidase inhibition protects against Western diet-induced aortic stiffness and impaired vasorelaxation in female mice.
Consumption of a high-fat, high-fructose diet [Western diet (WD)] promotes vascular stiffness, a critical factor in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Obese and diabetic women exhibit greater arterial stiffness than men, which contributes to the increased incidence of CVD in these women. Furthermore, high-fructose diets result in elevated plasma concentrations of uric acid via xan...
متن کاملAerobic exercise training reduces arterial stiffness in metabolic syndrome.
The metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with a threefold increase risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality partly due to increased arterial stiffening. We compared the effects of aerobic exercise training on arterial stiffening/mechanics in MetS subjects without overt CVD or type 2 diabetes. MetS and healthy control (Con) subjects underwent 8 wk of exercise training (ExT; 11 MetS and ...
متن کاملRegular exercise reduces fibrinogen levels: a review of longitudinal studies.
Fibrinogen can be considered as a major cardiovascular risk factor. Therefore there is a growing interest in methods to lower its plasma level. This paper is aimed at reviewing the data investigating the effects of regular exercise on plasma fibrinogen levels. Cross-sectional studies strongly suggest that regular exercise will reduce fibrinogen levels, and longitudinal data confirm this. The av...
متن کاملTemporary amygdala inhibition reduces stress effects in female mice
The current study investigated the effect of temporary inhibition of amygdala in response to metabolic changes caused by stress in female mice. Unilateral and bilateral amygdala cannulation was carried out, and after a week of recovery, 2% lidocaine hydrochloride was injected into the mice amygdalae five minutes before the induction of stress. A communication box was employed to induce stress f...
