Journal ArticleDOI

Increased myocardial NADPH oxidase activity in human heart failure.

TL;DR: The increase in NADPH oxidase activity in the failing heart may be important in the pathophysiology of cardiac dysfunction by contributing to increased oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pivotal role of a gp91(phox)-containing NADPH oxidase in angiotensin II-induced cardiac hypertrophy in mice.

TL;DR: A gp91phox-containing NADPH oxidase plays an important role in the development of angiotensin II-induced cardiac hypertrophy, independent of changes in blood pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myocardial Production of Aldosterone and Corticosterone in the Rat PHYSIOLOGICAL REGULATION

TL;DR: This study provides the first evidence for the existence of an endocrine cardiac steroidogenic system in rat heart and emphasizes its potential physiological and pathological relevance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relation between endothelial cell apoptosis and blood flow direction in human atherosclerotic plaques.

TL;DR: It is suggested that in vivo local shear stress influences luminal endothelial cell apoptosis and may be a major determinant of plaque erosion and thrombosis.
