Regulation of sympathetic vasomotor activity by the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus in normotensive and hypertensive states.

TLDR
The molecular mechanisms underlying the presynaptic and postsynaptic alterations in GABAergic and glutamatergic inputs to PVN presympathetic neurons in hypertension are discussed and the ability of exercise training to correct sympathetic hyperactivity is discussed.
Abstract
The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is a unique and important brain region involved in the control of cardiovascular, neuroendocrine, and other physiological functions pertinent to homeo...

The extended autonomic system, dyshomeostasis, and COVID-19.

TL;DR: Testable hypotheses derived from these concepts are that biomarkers of EAS activation correlate with clinical and pathophysiologic data and predict outcome in COVID-19 and that treatments targeting specific abnormalities identified in individual patients may be beneficial.

ACE2 and ADAM17 Interaction Regulates the Activity of Presympathetic Neurons.

TL;DR: The contrasting impact of ACE2 and ADAM17 on neuronal excitability of presympathetic neurons within the paraventricular nucleus and the consequences of this mutual regulation in the context of neurogenic hypertension are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuronal Networks in Hypertension: Recent Advances.

TL;DR: The brain regions that cause heightened sympathetic nerve activity in animal models of neurogenic hypertension are examined, and the triggers responsible for the changes in neuronal activity within these regions are discussed.

How does homeostasis happen? Integrative physiological, systems biological, and evolutionary perspectives.

TL;DR: This perspective piece proposes that the integrative physiological and systems biological viewpoints about homeostasis reflect different epistemologies, different philosophies of knowledge, and predicts rapprochement of integrative physiology with systems biology.

Exercise-Induced Regulation of Redox Status in Cardiovascular Diseases: The Role of Exercise Training and Detraining.

TL;DR: It is suggested that exercise training, either cardiovascular or resistance or even a combination of them, is a promising, safe and efficient tool in the prevention and treatment of CVDs.

The K+/Cl- co-transporter KCC2 renders GABA hyperpolarizing during neuronal maturation.

TL;DR: It is shown that, in pyramidal neurons of the rat hippocampus, the ontogenetic change in GABAA-mediated responses from depolarizing to hyperpolarizing is coupled to a developmental induction of the expression of the neuronal Cl−-extruding K+/Cl − co-transporter, KCC2 (ref. 7).

Ca2+ permeability of KA-AMPA--gated glutamate receptor channels depends on subunit composition

TL;DR: In neurons expressing certain KA-AMPA receptor subunits, glutamate may trigger calcium-dependent intracellular events by activating non-NMDA receptors.

Cation–chloride co-transporters in neuronal communication, development and trauma

TL;DR: The cation-chloride co-transporters (CCCs) have been identified as important regulators of neuronal Cl- concentration, and recent work indicates that CCCs play a key role in shaping GABA- and glycine-mediated signaling, influencing not only fast cell-to-cell communication but also various aspects of neuronal development, plasticity and trauma.
