Journal ArticleDOI
The adhesion molecule P-selectin and cardiovascular disease
TL;DR: An overview of the current literature on P-selectin is provided to provide a concise view of its potential in dissecting the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and will note a small number of excellent lessons provided by non-human work.
Journal ArticleDOI
Platelet indexes in relation to target organ damage in high-risk hypertensive patients: A substudy of the Anglo-Scandinavian Cardiac Outcomes Trial (ASCOT)☆
TL;DR: Patients with hypertension have evidence of changes in platelet physiology, as reflected by a higher level of P-selectin, and these changes may have implications for the pathophysiology of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease in hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Matrix metalloproteinase-9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 in hypertension and their relationship to cardiovascular risk and treatment: A substudy of the Anglo-Scandinavian Cardiac Outcomes Trial (ASCOT)
Muzahir H. Tayebjee,Sunil K. Nadar,Andrew D. Blann,D. Gareth Beevers,Robert J. MacFadyen,Gregory Y.H. Lip +5 more
TL;DR: Increased circulating MMP-9 and TIMP-1 at baseline in patients with hypertension could reflect an increased deposition and retention of type I collagen at the expense of other components of ECM within the cardiac and vascular ECM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Platelet morphology and plasma indices of platelet activation in essential hypertension: effects of amlodipine-based antihypertensive therapy.
TL;DR: Treatment of uncomplicated essential hypertension using amlodipine-based anti-hypertensive therapy results in a reversal of the platelet morphology abnormalities and indices of platelet activation, which may contribute to a reduction in thrombosis-related complications seen in those whose blood pressure lowering is effective.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endothelial Dysfunction: Methods of Assessment and Application to Hypertension
TL;DR: Assessment of vascular function is important in linking pathophysiology with clinical disease, such as hypertension, and a greater appreciation of how endothelial assessments are made in hypertension will have relevance for drug development and future management strategies.
