Inverse regulation of endothelin-1 and nitric oxide metabolites in tissue with aging: implications for the age-dependent increase of cardiorenal disease.

TL;DR: Investigating whether aging affects endothelin-1 (ET-1) and tissue levels of the nitric oxide metabolites nitrite/nitrate in the kidney of rodents found that activation of the ET pathway with aging may promote the development of age-dependent diseases such as glomerulosclerosis, hypertension and atherosclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

[HIV infection, antiretroviral therapy, and endothelium].

TL;DR: The most substantial database has recently been provided by the D:A:D study group who demonstrated an increased incidence of myocardial infarction in HIV-infected persons on protease inhibitors or non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-containing therapy in a prospective observational cohort study as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aortic regurgitation after transcatheter aortic valve implantation: mechanisms and implications.

TL;DR: The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the three types of AR after TAVI focussed on the different pathophysiological mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bimodal Effects of Angiotensin II on Migration of Human and Rat Smooth Muscle Cells Direct Stimulation and Indirect Inhibition Via Transforming Growth Factor-β1

TL;DR: The effects of angiotensin II on migration of VSMCs are bimodal, ie, both migratory and antimigratory pathways are activated.
