This study presents a detailed profile of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), electrolytes, volume loading, blood pressure (BP), and total peripheral resistance in healthy young Black and White adults. We also explored longitudinal assoc

Background and aims Increased left ventricular mass is an independent predictor for cardiovascular events, and shown to be higher in black than white populations. To gain a better understanding of early factors contributing to increased left ventricu

Objective Lifestyle risk factors vary between socioeconomic status (SES) groups and may influence cardiovascular function differently. The retinal microvasculature allows for monitoring early changes in cardiovascular health, and therefore, we invest

A gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS) method was developed and validated in relevant concentration ranges for the simultaneous measurement of l-lysine (Lys, L) and its Nε- and Nα-methylated (M), Nε- and Nα-acetylated (Ac), Nε-carboxym

Background Cotinine, a nicotine metabolite, is used to measure tobacco use and exposure, but recommended cut-offs to differentiate tobacco users from those exposed through the environment range from 3 to 58 ng/ml in serum, and 2.5 to 550 ng/ml in uri

Proteinic arginine dimethylation (PADiMe) is a major post-translational modification. Proteolysis of asymmetric and symmetric PADiMe products releases asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA), respectively, two endogen
Background and aims Growth differentiating factor-15 (GDF-15) is a stress-induced and cardio-protective cytokine, reported to be influenced by a number of cardiovascular risk factors. In older adults, GDF-15 associated with age, black ethnicity and s

Nitric oxide plays an important role in maintaining endothelial function, while increased oxidative stress may lead to nitric oxide inactivation and cardiovascular disease. If nitric oxide biosynthesis/bioavailability is already suppressed early in l

Lower nitric oxide (NO) bioavailabilty associates with hypertension in patients and elderly populations. With hypertension known to develop earlier in black populations, we compared both plasma and urinary NO-related markers and their associations wi

The endogenous Na+/K+-ATPase inhibitor, marinobufagenin (MBG), strongly associates with salt intake and a greater left ventricular mass index (LVMi) in humans and was shown to promote cardiac fibrosis and hypertrophy in animals. The adverse effects o
