Journal ArticleDOI
Adipokines, diabetes and atherosclerosis: an inflammatory association
Leandro Ceotto Freitas Lima,Valdir A. Braga,Maria do Socorro de França Silva,Josiane C. Cruz,Sérgio Henrique Sousa Santos,Matheus M.O. Monteiro,Camille M. Balarini +6 more
TL;DR: The role of the main adipokines in the pathophysiology of diabetes and atherosclerosis is explored, highlighting the therapeutic options that could arise from the manipulation of these signaling pathways both in humans and in translational models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phox2b-expressing retrotrapezoid neurons and the integration of central and peripheral chemosensory control of breathing in conscious rats.
TL;DR: The high rate of destruction of a defined cell population (Phox2b+TH−) of the retrotrapezoid nucleus by the toxin suggests that the specialized connectivity of retrotrazzoid nucleus neurons, their glutamatergic nature and their relatively high sensitivity to CO2 are determinant factors in explaining their large contribution to the central and peripheral chemoreflexes.
Journal ArticleDOI
AMP-activated protein kinase activation and NADPH oxidase inhibition by inorganic nitrate and nitrite prevent liver steatosis.
Isabel Cordero-Herrera,Mikael Kozyra,Zhengbing Zhuge,Sarah McCann Haworth,Chiara Moretti,Maria Peleli,Mayara Caldeira-Dias,Arghavan Jahandideh,Han Huirong,Josiane C. Cruz,Andrei L. Kleschyov,Marcelo F. Montenegro,Magnus Ingelman-Sundberg,Eddie Weitzberg,Eddie Weitzberg,Jon O. Lundberg,Mattias Carlström +16 more
TL;DR: Dietary nitrate fuels a nitrate–nitrite–NO signaling pathway, which prevented many features of metabolic syndrome and liver steatosis that developed in mice fed a high-fat diet, with or without combination with an inhibitor of NOS (l-NAME).
Journal ArticleDOI
A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease 17 in the Cardiovascular and Central Nervous Systems
Jiaxi Xu,Snigdha Mukerjee,Cristiane R. A. Silva-Alves,Alynne Carvalho-Galvão,Josiane C. Cruz,Camille M. Balarini,Valdir A. Braga,Eric Lazartigues,Maria S. França-Silva +8 more
TL;DR: This review focuses on the structure of ADAM17, its signaling in the cardiovascular system and its participation in certain disorders involving the heart, blood vessels, and neural regulation of autonomic and cardiovascular modulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The probiotic Lactobacillus fermentum 296 attenuates cardiometabolic disorders in high fat diet-treated rats.
Raissa Georgianna Silva Cavalcante,Thatyane Mariano Rodrigues de Albuquerque,Micaelle Oliveira de Luna Freire,Georgianna de Araújo Henriques Ferreira,Lucas Alves Carneiro dos Santos,Marciane Magnani,Josiane C. Cruz,Valdir A. Braga,Evandro Leite de Souza,José Luiz de Brito Alves +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest the ability of L. fermentum 296 to improve biochemical and cardiovascular parameters altered in cardiometabolic disorders.
