Oxygen radical-mediated reduction in basal and agonist-evoked NO release in isolated rat heart.

TL;DR: OfR severely impair NO-mediated coronary vasorelaxation affecting both basal and agonist-evoked NO release but not eNOS activity, however, EL also significantly blunts NOS/COX-independent vasodilation suggesting alteration of other vasodilatative pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro system to study realistic pulsatile flow and stretch signaling in cultured vascular cells

TL;DR: A novel real-time servo-controlled perfusion system that exposes endothelial cells grown in nondistensible or distensible tubes to realistic pulse pressures and phasic shears at physiological mean pressures provides the first in vitro application of realistic mechanical pulsatile forces on vascular cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

PKG1-modified TSC2 regulates mTORC1 activity to counter adverse cardiac stress

TL;DR: It is shown that phosphorylation or gain- or loss-of-function mutations at either of two adjacent serine residues in TSC2 can bidirectionally control mTORC1 activity stimulated by growth factors or haemodynamic stress, and consequently modulate cell growth and autophagy.
