Atherothrombosis-related diseases are one of the world's leading causes of mortality, and thus the search for new therapeutic approaches in this area remains a very urgent task. Modern pharmacogenomic technologies make it possible to obtain valuable data on disease pathogenesis and optimal therapeutic approaches. One promising research direction is the study of the thromboxane A2 - thromboxane A synthase - thromboxane A2 receptor axis. This review summarizes the recent evidence and suggests that systematic works in this area are creating new and promising opportunities in the treatment of patients with cardiovascular diseases.

Endothelial Cell-Selective Adhesion Molecule Deficiency Exhibit Increased Pulmonary Vascular Resistance Due to Impaired Endothelial Nitric Oxide Signaling.
Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol
December 2024
Department of Physiology.
Endothelial cell-selective adhesion molecule (ESAM) is a member of tight junction molecules, highly abundant in the heart and the lung, and plays a role in regulating endothelial cell permeability. We previously reported that mice with genetic ESAM deficiency (ESAM) exhibit coronary microvascular dysfunction leading to the development of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. Here, we hypothesize that ESAM mice display impairments in the pulmonary vasculature, affecting the overall pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR).

This study aims to compare the effects and mechanisms of the standard decoction and formula granules of Paeoniae Radix Rubra in regulating the metabolism in the rat model of heat toxin and blood stasis. SD rats were randomized into control, model, standard decoction, and formula granules groups. After 14 days of administration, the rats in the latter three groups were subjected to subcutaneous injection with carrageenan and intraperitoneal injection with bacterial lipopolysaccharide for the modeling of heat toxin and blood stasis.

Background: As neuropeptide Y is associated with endothelial dysfunction, this study explored the relationship between neuropeptide Y and acute myocardial infarction.
Methods: We included 128 acute myocardial infarction cases and 62 controls. Using the SYNTAX scoring system, the acute myocardial infarction group was sub-grouped into "SYNTAX ≤ 22," "SYNTAX = 23-32," and "SYNTAX ≥ 33.
In vitro evidence that the vasorelaxant effects of 2-nitro-1-phenyl-1-propanol on rat coronary arteries involve cyclic nucleotide pathways.

The synthetic nitro-alcohol 2-nitro-1-phenyl-1-propanol (NPP) has endothelium-independent relaxing properties in isolated preparations of rat aorta and mesenteric artery. In this study, we investigated whether the vasodilator effects occur in coronary vessels and explored whether hyperpolarization is involved in the underlying mechanism of NPP-induced smooth muscle relaxation. The relaxing responses were studied in isolated preparations of the left anterior descending coronary (ADC) and the septal coronary (SC) arteries, which had been previously maintained under sustained contraction induced by the thromboxane A analogue U-46619.

Inadequate blood supply to the expanding adipose tissue (AT) is involved in the unhealthy AT remodeling and cardiometabolic consequences of obesity. Because of the pathophysiological role of upregulated mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) signaling in the complications of obesity, this study tested the vasoactive properties of finerenone, a nonsteroidal MR antagonist, in arteries of human AT. Arteries isolated from the visceral AT of obese subjects were studied in a wire myograph.
