Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiovascular and autonomic phenotype of db/db diabetic mice

Danielle Senador, +4 more
- 01 Jun 2009 - 
TL;DR: The results document an age‐related increase in MAP in db/db mice, which can be reduced by antagonism of angiotensin II AT1 receptors, and alterations in autonomic balance and components of the renin–angiotens in system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cholinergic stimulation with pyridostigmine increases heart rate variability and baroreflex sensitivity in rats.

Pedro Paulo da Silva Soares, +3 more
- 30 Jun 2004 - 
TL;DR: The present results support the concept that cholinergic stimulation with pyridostigmine may become a therapeutic option for vagal dysfunction, and reduced HR variability and baroreflex sensitivity are independent risk factors in heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Resistance Training on Ventricular Function and Hypertrophy in a Rat Model

Valério Garrone Barauna, +3 more
- 01 Jun 2007 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used echocardiography data to investigate changes in ventricular function in rats undergoing resistance training for a period of 1 and 3 months, and found that the increased wall thickness induced by pressure overload was mainly due to an increase in the myocyte cross-sectional area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exercise training reduces cardiac angiotensin II levels and prevents cardiac dysfunction in a genetic model of sympathetic hyperactivity-induced heart failure in mice

Marcelo G. Pereira, +8 more
- 06 Jan 2009 - 
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that reduced cardiac RAS explains, at least in part, the beneficial effects of ET on cardiac function in a genetic model of HF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased renal GLUT1 abundance and urinary TGF-beta 1 in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats: implications for the development of nephropathy complicating diabetes.

B. D’Agord Schaan, +5 more
- 01 Nov 2001 - 
TL;DR: It is concluded that 45 days of diabetes result in incipient diabetic nephropathy and increased cortical GLUT1 protein abundance, which is speculated to amplify the effects of hyperglycemia in determining higher intracellular glucose in mesangial cells, thereby contributing to diabetes-related kidney damage.
