Using FFQ data from adults (45-64 y, n = 8041) without hypertension at baseline in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study, we scored participants' diets using the overall PDI (oPDI), healthy PDI (hPDI), less healthy (unhealthy) PDI (uPDI), provegetarian diet index, and PDI from the Rotterdam Study (PDI-Rotterdam).

Double deletion or co-suppression of calponin 1 and calponin 2 in vascular smooth muscle to blunt myogenic response may present a novel approach to develop new treatment for hypertension.
The aim of the present study was to encapsulate AEA in poly-ε-caprolactone/Pluronic® F127 nanoparticles (AEA/PCL/PF127 NPs) by means of electrospraying, to characterize their physico-chemical properties and cytocompatibility and to evaluate their effect in an in vivo model of cardiovascular remodeling caused by hypertension.
<b>Background</b>: To our knowledge, this is the first report of patient with BHD syndrome caused by a novel mutation in the FLCN gene who developed a cerebral venous sinus thrombosis(CVST).<b>Case presentation</b>: A 62-year-old male patient with a history of hypertension and two case of spontaneous pneumothorax.
Sulfonylurea-receptor-1(SUR1) and its associated transient-receptor-potential cation channel subfamily-M (TRPM4) channel are key contributors to cerebral edema and intracranial hypertension in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and other neurological disorders.
Our results demonstrate that Hnrnpf plays a role in the development of hypertension and glycosuria through modulation of renal Agt and Sglt2 expression in mice, respectively.
Our results show that NRP1 is required for full expression of DDAH1 in endothelial cells and that NRP1 contributes to protection from low-dose angiotensin II-induced increases in blood pressure.-Wang, Y., Wang, E., Zhang, Y., Madamsetty, V. S., Ji, B., Radisky, D. C., Grande, J. P., Misra, S., Mukhopadhyay, D. Neuropilin-1 maintains dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 1 expression in endothelial cells, and contributes to protection from angiotensin II-induced hypertension.
At the onset of hypertension (12 weeks of age), when blood pressure levels had just reached about 140 mmHg, AVP and SOM content in the SCN was not different anymore in SHRs compared to control, but VIP was still higher.
Hypertension incidence risk in the study cohort was higher than that in the Japanese cohort of atomic bomb survivors (AHS [Adult Health Study]) but lower than a corresponding estimate for Chernobyl clean-up workers.
<b>Results:</b> Comparative with control group, in hypertension associated with hyperlipidemia the investigated miRNA expression profiles were different: (i) in plasma, the levels of all investigated miRNAs were significantly increased, the highest enhances being noticed for miR-21,-146a,-221,-143,-34a, and miR-204; (ii) in platelets, the expressions of almost all miRNAs were significantly elevated, remarkable for miR-126,-146a,-223,-222, and miR-214, while levels of miR-143, miR-10a, and miR-145 were significantly reduced; (iii) in PMVs, numerous miRNAs were found to have significantly increased levels, especially miR-222,-221,-210, and miR-34a, whereas expressions of various miRNAs as miR-223,-214,-146a,-143,-10a, and miR-145 were significantly decreased.
We investigated whether Ang II, via induction of AT1R and μ-opioid receptor (μOR) dimerization in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS), leads to progressive hypertension.
The overexpression of Kcnq1, Crlf1, Alb and Xirp1 and the inhibition of Galr2, Kcnh1, Ache, Chrm2 and Slc5a7 expression may indicate that a relationship exists between these genes and the cause and/or worsening of hypertension in SHR and SHRSP.
Discovery of botanical KCNQ5-selective potassium channel openers may enable future targeted therapies for diseases including hypertension and KCNQ5 loss-of-function encephalopathy.
A root cause for this is hypertension-induced erythrocyte adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) release, leading to an increase in plasma ATP levels, which begins soon after the onset of hypertension and stimulates P2X7 receptors on antigen-presenting cells (APCs), increasing APC expression of CD86.
Taken together, the results of this study provided a potential use for anti-IL-5Rα antibodies in the treatment of arterial hypertrophy, which leads to pulmonary hypertension.
