Abnormalities in arterial-ventricular coupling in older healthy persons are attenuated by sodium nitroprusside

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that sodium nitroprusside (SNP) can acutely ameliorate the age-associated deficits in E(A)/E(LV) and E(LV, in older subjects can be acutely abolished by SNP infusion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design, generation, and testing of mammalian expression modules that tag membrane proteins

TL;DR: Two sets of expression modules are designed that consist of sequences encoding for three essential components: a signal peptide from human receptor for advanced glycation end products that targets the intended protein to the endoplasmic reticulum for cell surface expression, and an antigenic epitope tag that elicits specific antibody recognition.
Journal ArticleDOI

How useful is digitalis in patients with congestive heart failure and sinus rhythm

TL;DR: The current discussion will focus primarily on the evidence regarding the efficacy and risks of digitalis in patients with chronic CHF associated with sinus rhythm.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aging- and gender-related modulation of RAAS: potential implications in COVID-19 disease

TL;DR: The effect of aging and gender on RAAS is addressed with emphasis on ACE2, pro- inflammatory Ang II/Ang II receptor 1 axis and anti-inflammatory Ang(1–7)/Mas receptor axis.
Journal Article

cGMP prevents delayed relaxation at reoxygenation after bried hypoxia in isolated cardiac myocytes

TL;DR: 8-BrcGMP fully prevents impaired posthypoxic relaxation in isolated cardiac myocytes, probably by altering Ca(2+)-myofilament interaction.
