Exercise training increases basal tone in arterioles distal to chronic coronary occlusion.
TL;DR: The interaction of opposing exercise training-enhanced arteriolar basal active tone, nitric oxide production, and K+ channel activity in chronic coronary occlusion is demonstrated, potentially enhancing the capacity to regulate blood flow to collateral-dependent myocardium.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is concluded that metabolic conversion of dietary lipids into body fat primarily contributes to obesity in HF-fed rats.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Proper functioning of the mast cell/histamine/NF-κB axis is necessary for reactions of the lymphatic vessels to acute inflammatory stimuli as well as for interaction and trafficking of immune cells near and within the collecting lymphatics.

Intracellular sources of ornithine for polyamine synthesis in endothelial cells
TL;DR: The results suggest that the arginase and OAT pathways are the exclusive sources of ornithine in EC when there is little extracellular Ornithine and that there is intracellular compartmentalization of arginine and ornithines for endothelial synthesis of polyamines.
