Elucidating the role of LARP6 in cardiovascular remodeling
… treatments and therapeutics. Of note, structural remodeling of the heart precedes the onset of overt symptoms that diminish a patient's quality of life. Many factors contribute to the adverse remodeling and dysfunction observed in heart failure. Of note, obesity, excess sympathetic drive, elevated …

Blood Pressure Elevation - Impact on Cardiovascular Structure and Endogenous Fibrinolysis
… pressure elevation is a major risk factor for cardiovascular events and the risk increases in a dose-dependant manner. It is of importance to identify subjects prone to develop hypertension and adverse cardiovascular remodeling in order to start treatment timely. The increased risk of …

Group IV Cytosolic Phospholipase A2α Is Critical for the Development of Angiotensin II-Induced Hypertension and Associated Pathogenesis
… metabolites mediate or modulate one or more renocardiovascular effects of this peptide and have been implicated in hypertension. Since AA release is the rate limiting step in eicosanoid production, it is possible that cPLA2α might play a central role in the development of Ang II-induced …

Cardiovascular and Inflammatory Consequences of Adverse Childhood Experiences
… investigations which aim to identify changes in cardiovascular and inflammatory health which are present in individuals who have experienced different types of ACEs (i.e., maltreatment, household dysfunction) and the accumulation of ACEs (i.e., <4 and ≥ 4 different ACEs). First, this thesis …

Characterisation of cardiac remodeling associated with pregnancy: providing insights to peripartum cardiomyopathy
Introduction: Maternal cardiovascular changes that occur in pregnant women are usually well tolerated by most women experiencing an uncomplicated pregnancy and are reversable postpartum. However, pregnancy can induce adverse cardiac events in previously healthy women without any known …

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance characterisation of the phenotype of resistant uncontrolled hypertension
… with RH are significantly predisposed to cardiovascular (CV) diseases compared to patients with controlled BP. Consequences of RH include left ventricular hypertrophy, heart failure, ischaemic heart disease, chronic kidney disease leading to end-stage renal disease, stroke, vascular …
