Brief hypoxia differentially regulates the activities of Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels (K(Ca)) in a variety of cell types. We investigated the effects of hypoxia (<2% O(2)) on K(Ca) channel currents and on the activities of cytochrome P450 2C11 epoxygenase (CYP epoxygenase) in cultured rat
Short, nonlethal ischemic episodes administered to hearts directly after ischemic events (ischemic postconditioning, IPost) have an advantage over ischemic preconditioning (IPC). The endogenous cytochrome P450 2J3/11,12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (CYP2J3/11,12-EET) is upregulated by IPost, but not
We assessed pulmonary cytochrome P450 (CYP) epoxygenase expression and activity during hypoxia and explored the effects of modulating epoxygenase activity on pulmonary hypertension. The acute hypoxic vasoconstrictor response was studied in Swiss Webster mice, who express CYP2C29 in their lungs.
Numerous epidemiological studies have shown that cardiovascular dysfunction in adult life may be programmed by compromised growth in utero. Aging is a risk factor for vascular endothelial-dependent dysfunction. After birth, the impact of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) on normal aging
