Journal ArticleDOI

Cortisol-mediated synchrinization of circadian rhythm in urinary potassium excretion.

TL;DR: Results indicate that the cirdacian rhythm of plasma cortisol concentration acts as an internal mediator in the circadian timing system, synchronizing a potentially autonomous oscillation in renal potassium excretion to environmental time cues and to other circadian rhythms within the animal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leveraging Signaling Pathways to Treat Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction.

TL;DR: A review of existing approaches for the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction due to systolic dysfunction can be found in this article, where the focus is on signaling pathways that are tractable for therapeutic manipulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Force-frequency relation in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy and failure

TL;DR: Patients with genetic and acquired left ventricular hypertrophy have reduced chamber compliance, delayed relaxation, and small and often deformed cavities all conspire to limit pump performance and reserve capacity while raising pulmonary venous pressures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in chronic hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension in the mouse. Influence of gene transfer in vivo.

TL;DR: In this paper, an adenoviral vector encoding CGRP (AdRSVCGRP) was used to examine the effects of in vivo gene transfer to the lung on increases in PVR, right ventricular mass, and pulmonary vascular remodeling that occurs in chronic hypoxia in the mouse.
