Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is the most feared complication of aneurysmal
subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). It increases the mortality and morbidity associated with …

Although chronic stress is an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) onset,
the underlying mechanisms driving such pathophysiological complications remain relatively …

Stress is a multimodal response involving the coordination of numerous body systems in
order to maximize the chance of survival. However, long term activation of the stress …

Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) undergoes functional changes in obesity. Increased
oxidative stress is a central mechanism whereby obesity induces loss of the anticontractile …

Aim. Hyperuricemia (HUA) has received increased attention in the last few decades due to
its global prevalence. Our previous study found that administration of a macroporous resin …

Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) exerts anticontractile effect, but under non-physiological
conditions it may contribute to vascular dysfunction by releasing pro-inflammatory cytokines …

Ethanol consumption induces thymic atrophy and affects T cell maturation in the thymus.
However, the mechanisms underlying such effects still need to be fully understood. We …

Chronic ethanol consumption is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. We studied
whether NAD (P) H oxidase-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a role in ethanol …

Aims Investigate the role of NADPH oxidase on ethanol-induced hypertension and vascular
oxidative stress. Methods Male Wistar rats were treated with ethanol (20% v/v). Results …

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with myocardial injury, but changes in
coronary regulatory mechanisms in PTSD have not been investigated. This study evaluated …
