TL;DR: The results of the present study demonstrated that DXA provided an index of whole calcium balance, and suggest that high blood pressure might be associated with reduced BMD in female hypertension.

TL;DR: The greater effect of NO on the fluidity in essential hypertension suggests that NO might actively participate in the regulation of rheological behavior of erythrocytes and have a crucial role in the improvement of microcirculation in hypertension.

TL;DR: E2 significantly increased the membrane fluidity and improved the microviscosity of erythrocyte membranes, partially mediated by an NO- and cGMP-dependent pathway and might have a crucial role in the improvement of the microcirculation in hypertension.

TL;DR: Results show that galanin significantly reduced the release of dopamine in rat striatum, and the greater inhibitory effect of galan in on dopamine release in SHR suggests that galansin might actively participate in the regulation of dopaminergic nerve activity in hypertension.

TL;DR: It is suggested that enhanced DNA synthesis in CVSMCs from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) is determined genetically, thatEnhanced DNA synthesis is largely dependent on an increased proportion of S-phase cells and that this increase in S- phase cells in CVDs from SHR could be due to enhanced competence gene expression in SHR cells.
