Variations in human renal arteries
Kidneys are especially irrigated by a pair of arteries originated from the aorta artery. The presence of additional renal arteries is the most frequent variation in this vascularization, an aspect important to be known in renal surgeries and radiological procedures (SAMPAIO; PASSOS, 1992). This study aimed to observe the prevalence of numeric variation and the origin of the additional renal art...
متن کاملCalcium-activated potassium channels and nitrate-induced vasodilation in human coronary arteries.
In some but not all arterial beds, smooth muscle cell calcium-activated K+ channels (KCa channels) play a central role in the mediation of the vasodilator response to nitric oxide (NO) and other nitrates. We investigated the effect of nitrates on KCa channels in the relaxation of human coronary arteries by means of isometric contraction experiments in arterial rings. We also measured whole-cell...
متن کاملDifferent expression of large-conductance calcium-activated K+ channels in human internal mammary and radial arteries.
AIMS In this study, we investigated and compared the electrophysiological and molecular properties of large-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) (BK(Ca)) channels between human internal mammary arteries (IMA) and radial arteries (RA). METHODS AND RESULTS IMA and RA sections were obtained from 79 patients (including 9 females) undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. We examined the effec...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation of Angulation Effects in Stenosed Renal Arteries
Background: Numerical study of angulation effects of renal arteries on blood flow has been of great interest for many researchers.Objective: This paper aims at numerically determining the angulation effects of stenosed renal arteries on blood flow velocity and renal mass flow.Method: An anatomically realistic model of abdominal aorta and renal arteries is reconstructed from CT-scan images and u...

labelling increased slightly over the subsequent 4 h, although the magnitude of this increase was reduced by further vasopressin treatment. However, in the presence of insulin, PtdIns labelling declined over the 4 h chase period and the extent of this decline was significantly enhanced by vasopressin treatment. In insulin-treated cells, labelled in the presence of vasopressin and then stimulate...
