Journal ArticleDOI

Cardioprotection and lifespan extension by the natural polyamine spermidine

Tobias Eisenberg, +69 more
- 01 Dec 2016 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that oral supplementation of the natural polyamine spermidine extends the lifespan of mice and exerts cardioprotective effects, reducing cardiac hypertrophy and preserving diastolic function in old mice, and suggests a new and feasible strategy for protection against cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic associations at 53 loci highlight cell types and biological pathways relevant for kidney function

Cristian Pattaro, +735 more
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for estimated glomerular filtration rate suggests that genetic determinants of eGFR are mediated largely through direct effects within the kidney and highlight important cell types and biological pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Asymmetrical Dimethylarginine Independently Predicts Total and Cardiovascular Mortality in Individuals with Angiographic Coronary Artery Disease (The Ludwigshafen Risk and Cardiovascular Health Study)

TL;DR: The predictive value of ADMA was similar to that in the entire cohort in persons with CAD, stable or unstable, but was not statistically significant in persons without angiographic CAD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Homoarginine, Cardiovascular Risk, and Mortality

TL;DR: Homoarginine levels are independently associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in patients referred for coronary angiography and in patients undergoing hemodialysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma aldosterone levels are associated with increased cardiovascular mortality: the Ludwigshafen Risk and Cardiovascular Health (LURIC) study.

TL;DR: In a large cohort of patients scheduled for coronary angiography, variation in PAC levels within the normal range is associated with increased all-cause and CVD mortality independent of major established CV risk factors.
