Vanilloid receptors on sensory nerves mediate the vasodilator action of anandamide

TL;DR: It is shown that the vasodilator response to anandamide in isolated arteries is capsaicin-sensitive and accompanied by release of calcitonin-gene-related peptide (CGRP), which indicates that the vanilloid receptor may be another molecular target for endogenousAnandamide, besides cannabinoid receptors, in the nervous and cardiovascular systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of the potassium channels involved in EDHF‐mediated relaxation in cerebral arteries

TL;DR: KV, but not KATP and BKCa, is involved in the EDHF‐mediated relaxation in the guinea‐pig basilar artery, and the synergistic action of apamin and ciclazindol could indicate that both KV and SKCa are activated by EDHF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediagnostic body fat and risk of death from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: The EPIC cohort

TL;DR: Investigating the association between body fat and risk of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis with an appropriate prospective study design found increased prediagnostic body fat is associated with a decreased risk of ALS mortality.
