Increased expression of calcium-sensing receptors induced by ox-LDL amplifies apoptosis of cardiomyocytes during simulated ischaemia-reperfusion.

abstract：:1. The acute effects of captopril on blood pressure, renin, angiotensin, bradykinin and catecholamines were examined in patients with essential (n = 10, Group 1), accelerated (n = 6, Group 2) and renal hypertension (n = 14, Group 3). 2. Blood pressure showed little change in Group 1, fell significantly in Group 2, wit...

abstract：:1. mu-Opioid receptor agonists mediate their central analgesic effects by actions on neurons within brain regions such as the mid-brain periaqueductal grey (PAG). Within the PAG, mu-opioid receptor-mediated analgesia results from inhibition of GABAergic influences on output projection neurons. We have established that...

Following local vasoconstriction-inducing stimuli, such as the cold pressor test (CPT), significant changes occur in haemodynamics, with a rise in arterial blood pressure and heart rate (HR) due to the activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Among the compensatory mechanisms to local ischaemia, the endogenous...
