Oxidative stress and potassium channel functionYanping Liu
Cardiovascular Center, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53226, USA
Clin Exp Pharmacol Physiol 29:305-11. 2002..5. Thus, redox modulation of potassium channel activity is an important mechanism regulating cell vascular smooth muscle membrane potential...
The coronary circulation in diabetes: influence of reactive oxygen species on K+ channel-mediated vasodilationYanping Liu
Cardiovascular Center, Medical College of Wisconsin, 8701 Watertown Plank Road, Milwaukee, WI 53226, USA
Vascul Pharmacol 38:43-9. 2002..In summary, determining the effect of ROS on K+ channel-mediated dilation will be important for understanding the pathophysiology of diabetic vascular dysfunction and for developing therapies to improve tissue perfusion in this disease...
Enhanced oxidative stress impairs cAMP-mediated dilation by reducing Kv channel function in small coronary arteries of diabetic ratsAaron H Bubolz
Department of Medicine, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI, USA
Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 289:H1873-80. 2005..Forskolin-induced cAMP production was unaltered in DM. We conclude that in diabetes, enhanced O2-* formation by activation of NADPH oxidase impairs cAMP-medicated dilation in RSCAs by inhibiting Kv channel activity...
Ebselen reduces nitration and restores voltage-gated potassium channel function in small coronary arteries of diabetic ratsAaron H Bubolz
Department of Medicine, The Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 293:H2231-7. 2007..Eb may be beneficial for the therapeutic treatment of vascular complications in diabetes mellitus...
Elevated glucose impairs cAMP-mediated dilation by reducing Kv channel activity in rat small coronary smooth muscle cellsHongwei Li
Department of Internal Medicine, Cardiovascular Center, Medical College of Wisconsin, 8701 Watertown Plank Road, Milwaukee, WI 53226, USA
Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 285:H1213-9. 2003..We speculate that in addition to the endothelial dysfunction, altered smooth muscle function may also contribute to the reduced coronary vasodilation in diabetes...
H2O2 is the transferrable factor mediating flow-induced dilation in human coronary arteriolesYanping Liu
Office of Research, Medical College of Wisconsin, 8701 Watertown Plank Rd, Milwaukee, WI 53226, USA
Circ Res 108:566-73. 2011..However, H(2)O(2) has never been shown to be the endothelium-dependent transferrable hyperpolarization factor (EDHF) in response to shear stress...

Redox signaling at reperfusion is required for protection from ischemic preconditioning but not from a direct PKC activatorYanping Liu
Department of Physiology, MSB 3074, University of South Alabama College of Medicine, Mobile, AL 36688, USA
Basic Res Cardiol 103:54-9. 2008..We conclude that while redox signaling during the first few minutes of reperfusion is an essential component of preconditioning's protective mechanism, this step occurs upstream of PKC activation...
