Enhanced noradrenaline response in cardiomyopathic hamsters: possible relation to changes in adrenoceptors studied by radioligand binding

TL;DR: Possible explanations for the raise response to noradrenaline in cardiomyopathic hamsters include and increased concentration of noradRenaline in the synaptic cleft due to defective neuronal uptake and / or stimulation of an augmented population of alpha 1-(postsynaptic) adrenoceptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bromodomain and Extraterminal Proteins Suppress NF-E2–Related Factor 2–Mediated Antioxidant Gene Expression

TL;DR: BET proteins, particularly Brd2 and Brd4, may play a key role in the regulation of Nrf2-dependent antioxidant gene transcription and are hence an important target for augmenting antioxidant responses in oxidative stress–mediated diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exhaled carbon monoxide in asthmatics: a meta-analysis

TL;DR: Exhaled carbon monoxide (eCO) measurement is cheap and has been proposed to reflect airway inflammation and oxidative stress but current data are conflicting, and eCO is elevated in asthmatics but levels only partially reflect disease severity and control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypoxia-inducible Factor 1α Induces Corticosteroid-insensitive Inflammation via Reduction of Histone Deacetylase-2 Transcription

TL;DR: Hypoxia induces corticosteroid-insensitive inflammation via reduced transcription of histone deacetylase-2 (HDAC2) in lung epithelial and macrophage cells through binding of the transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) 1α to a HIF response element at position −320, resulting in reduced polymerase II binding at the site.
