Abstract:
Autonomically-mediated baroreflex control of heart rate has been extensively studied (cardiac BRS, cBRS), but peripheral control of blood pressure is less well known. Total peripheral resistance (TPR) was derived from pulse contour stroke volume (SVPC) using non-invasive blood pressure (Finapres). The beat-to-beat variability of Finapres SVPC was evaluated in cardiac catheterisation patients against aortic blood pressure SVPC. Correlations were generally good (mean R = 0.75), but regression slopes tended to be less than unity and several aortic recordings were significantly affected by the dyn

Abstract:
Nitric Oxide (NO) is an important signaling molecule in blood pressure regulation. The NO receptor, soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), produces the secondary messenger cGMP in response to NO binding. Because of its role in blood pressure regulation, sGC is increasingly targeted for drug discovery and several new drugs treating hypertensive individuals are sGC stimulators. Unfortunately, stimulator development is limited by our understanding of NO and simulator induced conformational changes.

Nitric oxide is generated by the vascular endothelium from L-arginine by a constitutive, Ca2+-dependent, NO synthase. Analogues of L-arginine were characterised as inhibitors of NO synthase to investigate the biological significance of the L-arginine-NO pathway in the vessel wall and its role in the cardiovascular system. These inhibitors attenuate the endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation and hypotension induced by various agents, produce an increase in vascular tone and an increase in blood pressure. This suggests that NO is involved in endothelium-dependent relaxation and its continuous rele

Hypertension is a widespread condition which may cause cardiovascular events when left untreated.

Previous studies have shown that increased fibre consumption reduces BP which was particularly effective in hypertensive subjects. Fibres are indigestible and hence are available for fermentation by the colonic microbiota which produces the short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) acetate, propionate

Abstract:
Introduction: Hypertension is a complex disease that affects about 40% of adults worldwide, and is a major risk factor for cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. Abnormal calcium handling plays a key role in hypertension and cardiovascular disease. In order to function normally cells of the cardiovascular system need to keep intracellular Ca2+ levels under tight control. This is achieved by a number of Ca2+ handling proteins including the plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase (PMCA). Recent genome wide association studies have shown that single nucleotide polymorphisms in ATP2B1, the gene encoding PMCA1

Genome-wide association studies have revealed an association between variation at the SLC4A7 locus and blood pressure.

Notably, the SLC4A7 knockout mouse has been shown to have an altered blood pressure phenotype.

ENaC is mainly regulated by mechanisms that control the expression of active channels at the cell surface.
