The influence of hypoxia on nitric oxide formation in the blood of Krushinskii-Molodkina rats has been studied by electron paramagnetic resonance. It was found that nitric oxide synthesis in Krushinskii-Molodkina rats is increased compared with that in Wistar rats. A significant enhancement of the EPR signal of Hb-NO complexes in the animal blood was observed after hypoxia simulating the altitude of 5000 m above the sea level, in particular in the presence of sodium nitrite and the NO-synthase inhibitor L-nitroarginine. It was assumed that NO synthesis and nitro-/nitrite- reductase systems are activated under hypoxic conditions.

Introduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of mortality on a global scale, with a higher prevalence observed among men. This study investigated the protective effect of vitamin D supplementation on CVD.
Methods: A cohort of thirty mice was divided into three groups: control, T1 diabetic, and T1 diabetic groups that received vitamin D treatment.

Background: Inflammation is the body's innate reaction to foreign pathogens and serves as a self-regulating mechanism. However, the immune system can mistakenly target the body's own tissues, triggering unnecessary inflammation. For millennia, medicinal plants have been employed for the treatment of diseases.

Investigating the genetic factors influencing human birth weight may lead to biological insights into fetal growth and long-term health. We report analyses of rare variants that impact birth weight when carried by either fetus or mother, using whole exome sequencing data in up to 234,675 participants. Rare protein-truncating and deleterious missense variants are collapsed to perform gene burden tests.
