Tumor cell demise is an important event in the elimination of abnormal malignant cells and provides an important mechanism of natural tumor suppression. Abnormalities incapacitating these finely tuned processes provide a strong advantage for cancer c

Summary Reasons for performing study: Endothelin-1 (ET-1) may be a key mediator in the pathogenesis of laminitis, but endothelin-mediated responses in the venous microcirculation of the equine foot have yet to be fully characterised. Objectives: To c

Dicer-substrate small interfering RNAs (DsiRNAs) are synthetic RNA duplexes that are processed by Dicer into 21-mer species and show improved potency as triggers of RNA interference, particularly when used at low dose. Chemical modification patterns

Introduction Pharmacological evaluation of the unique equine laminar microvasculature is crucial to understanding its role in health and in diseases such as laminitis. However, separating the distinctive characteristics of arterial versus venous comp

In human essential hypertension (EH), endothelium-dependent relaxation can occur independent of nitric oxide (NO) and prostacyclin (PGI(2)). Recent in vivo data suggest that rapid compensatory upregulation of endothelial cytochrome P450 epoxygenase 2

Arteries were isolated from male DBA/2 mice and mounted on a small vessel wire myograph for isometric recording. Responses to exogenous noradrenaline were inhibited with high affinity by prazosin (pKB, 9.3) and 5-methyl-urapidil (pKB, 9.2) and with l

Adrenomedullin (AM) is a peptide that possesses potentially beneficial properties. Since the initial discovery of the peptide by Kitamura et al. in 1993, the literature has been awash with reports describing its novel mechanisms of action and huge po

Resistance arteries isolated from patients with critical limb ischaemia (CLI), a hypotensive/hypoperfusion state of the lower leg, have been shown to undergo morphological changes opposite to those observed in hypertension, that is, decreased wall th

We recently reported the hyper-responsiveness of human skeletal muscle resistance arteries (SkMRAs) to noradrenaline in critical limb ischaemia (CLI). In this study we investigated the characteristics of alpha(1)-adrenoceptor subtypes and evaluated t

BACKGROUND: Diabetes is a major risk factor for coronary heart disease in women and event rates increase substantially after the menopause. Observational studies have suggested that estrogens may provide cardioprotection by regulating endothelial nit
