Endogenous and exogenous factors play a role in endothelial dysfunction. Inflammation, leukocyte adhesion-aggregation, abnormal vascular proliferation, atherosclerosis, and hypertension are among the endogenous factors. Another factor that affects endothelial dysfunction is exogenous factors such as drug treatments, smoking, alcohol, and nutrition.

The opioid epidemic endangers not only public health but also social and economic welfare. Growing clinical evidence indicates that chronic use of prescription opioids may contribute to an elevated risk of ischemic stroke and negatively impact post-stroke recovery. In addition, NLRP3 inflammasome activation has been related to several cerebrovascular diseases, including ischemic stroke.

Cinnamic acid (CA) possesses important cardiovascular effects such as cardioprotective, antiatherogenic, antihyperlipidemic and antioxidant, which predicts its potential role in the treatment of hypertension. The study was executed to investigate the antihypertensive potential of CA in Sprague Dawley (SD) rats followed by evaluation in diverse vascular preparations. Invasive blood pressure monitoring technique was used in normotensive and hypertensive rats, under anesthesia.

Background: Small vessel disease (SVD) is a disorder of the brain's microvessels and a common cause of dementia and stroke. Evidence links normal ageing features to SVD progression, involving endothelial activation, pericyte dysfunction, BBB failure, and microglia response. Here, we aim to examine this relationship through a series of translational investigations.

Background: Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the accumulation of aggregated amyloid peptides in the brain parenchyma and in the walls of brain vessels. The hippocampus - a complex brain structure that plays a key role in learning and memory - has been implicated in the disease. However, there is limited data on vascular changes during the pathological degeneration of Alzheimer's disease in this vulnerable structure, which has distinctive vascular features.
