  2. 1. Studies on vasoactivity of fibrin(ogen) derived peptides

    Author : Katarina Saldeen; Asrar Malik; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Fibrin ogen derived peptides; vasoactivity; prostacyclin; nitric oxide; angiotensin converting enzyme; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Fibrin accumulation is a common fmding in many pathological conditions, such as in inflammatory processes, e.g. in the lungs in pneumonia or pulmonary insufficiency after sepsis. During lysis of the fibrin by plasmin or leukocyte elastase, peptides are released that may contribute to the pathophysiological changes. READ MORE

  4. 2. Endothelin and nitric oxide in coronary vascular regulation with special reference to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury

    Author : Qing-Dong Wang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : endothelium; endothelin; myocardial ischemia; myocardial infarction; reperfusion; L-arginine; nitric oxide.;

    Abstract : The vascular endothelium plays an important role in the regulation of cardiovascular function by producing bioactive substances such as nitric oxide (NO) and endothelin-I (ET- 1). Recent evidence has revealed that endothelial dysfunction is closely related to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. READ MORE
