Role of oxidative stress in multiparity-induced endothelial dysfunction.
Multiparity is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. We tested whether multiparity induces oxidative stress in rat vascular tissue. Coronary arteries and thoracic aorta were isolated from multiparous and age-matched virgin rats. Relaxation to ACh and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) was measured by wire myography. We also tested the effect of the superoxide dismutase mimetic MnTE2...
متن کاملThe role of oxidative stress in postprandial endothelial dysfunction.
Endothelial dysfunction is a turning point in the initiation and development of atherosclerosis and its complications and is predictive of future cardiovascular events. Ingestion of high-carbohydrate or high-fat meals often results in postprandial hyperglycaemia and/or hypertriacylglycerolaemia that may lead to a transient impairment in endothelial function. The present review will discuss huma...
متن کاملEndothelial dysfunction and preeclampsia: role of oxidative stress
Preeclampsia (PE) is an often fatal pathology characterized by hypertension and proteinuria at the 20th week of gestation that affects 5-10% of the pregnancies. The problem is particularly important in developing countries in where the incidence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy is higher and maternal mortality rates are 20 times higher than those reported in developed countries. Risk fact...
متن کاملBurns, endothelial dysfunction, and oxidative stress: the role of antioxidants.
Background. Burns cause a systemic inflammatory response, endothelial dysfunction, and increased microvascular permeability which results in oedema being formed; these effects are probably the result of a complex interplay between the direct effects of heat on the microcirculation and the action of chemical mediators, including reactive oxygen species. The use of antioxidants can reduce these c...
متن کاملRole of Nox isoforms in angiotensin II-induced oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction in brain.
Angiotensin II (Ang II) promotes vascular disease through several mechanisms including by producing oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction. Although multiple potential sources of reactive oxygen species exist, the relative importance of each is unclear, particularly in individual vascular beds. In these experiments, we examined the role of NADPH oxidase (Nox1 and Nox2) in Ang II-induced e...
