A functional neurovascular unit (NVU) is central to meeting the brain's dynamic metabolic
needs. Poststroke damage to the NVU within the ipsilateral hemisphere ranges from cell …

Sex hormone‐dependent vascular reactivity is an underlying factor contributing to sex
differences in salt‐dependent hypertension. This study evaluated the role of androgens …

This study aimed to investigate the effects of L-arginine supplementation on blood pressure,
protein excretion, lipid profile in salt-induced hypertensive pregnant rats. Female Sprague …

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological disorder resulting from the
progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons. There is currently no known cure for PD, thus the …

Background: Abnormal vascular reactivity and reduced expression of endothelial nitric oxide
synthase (eNOS) gene are hallmark of salt-induced hypertension in rats. Although l-arginine …

Background: A bidirectional relationship has been established between testosterone
deficiency (TD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Low testosterone level has been …

High dietary salt intake is an important risk factor for cardiovascular and renal diseases.
However, sexual disparity exists in the response of target organs to high salt diet (HSD). To …

Background Hypertension is associated with cardiovascular dysfunction, dysregulation of
the antioxidant system and alteration of the level of some enzymes in the metabolic pathway …

Objectives: Male gender and high-salt diet are risk factors for hypertension. The effect of
chronic exposure to testosterone is an increase in vascular tone but its influence upon …

Background: Ciprofloxacin (CF) is a very popular antibiotics used for therapeutic prospects.
This study was investigated to determine the effect of graded CF oral intake on lipid profile …
