(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2008)
Alchornea glandulosa Ethyl Acetate Fraction Exhibits Antiangiogenic Activity: Preliminary Findings from In Vitro Assays Using Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., 2011-10-01)
Alchornea glandulosa has traditionally been used in Brazilian folk medicine for the treatment of immune-inflammatory diseases and as an antiulcer agent to heal gastric ulcer and gastritis. Angiogenesis is a complex multistep ...
Antihypertensive therapy in pre-eclampsia: Effects of plasma from nonresponsive patients on endothelial gene expression
(2016-07-01)
Aim: Over 40% of patients with pre-eclampsia are nonresponsive to antihypertensive therapy, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. We examined the effects of plasma from nonresponsive and responsive patients on endothelial ...
Immobilized Kidney 28-kDa Endostatin- Related (KES28kDa) Fragment Promotes Endothelial Cell Survival
(KARGER, 2010)
Background/Objective: Renal ischemia-hypoxia is a leading cause of acute kidney injury (AKI). Ischemia causes extracellular matrix breakdown of the tubular basement membrane. Endostatin (ES) is the C-terminal fragment of ...
Myeloperoxidase in Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy and Its Relation with Nitric Oxide
(2017-06-01)
Elevated levels of myeloperoxidase have been demonstrated in women with preeclampsia where it may contribute to endothelial dysfunction mediated, in part, by nitric oxide impairment. In this study, we investigated ...
