Moderate ascorbate deficiency increases myogenic tone of arteries from pregnant but not virgin ascorbate-dependent ratsRolando J J Ramirez
Magee-Women Research Institute, Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
Hypertension 47:454-60. 2006..This increase may result from a decrease in nitric oxide-mediated modulation of the myogenic contractile response...
S-nitrosoalbumin-mediated relaxation is enhanced by ascorbate and copper: effects in pregnancy and preeclampsia plasmaRobin E Gandley
Magee Womens Research Institute and Department of Environmental and Occupational Health, University of Pittsburgh, 204 Craft Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA
Hypertension 45:21-7. 2005..We suggest that the higher circulating levels of SNO-Alb, in women with preeclampsia, reflect a deficiency in Asc/Cu-mediated release of NO from SNO-Alb...
First trimester uric acid and adverse pregnancy outcomesS Katherine Laughon
Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Services, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
Am J Hypertens 24:489-95. 2011....
Early hypercholesterolemia contributes to vasomotor dysfunction and injury associated atherogenesis that can be inhibited by nitric oxideKathleen G Raman
Division of Vascular Surgery, Department of Surgery, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA
J Vasc Surg 53:754-63. 2011..The efficacy of NO therapy to protect against the injury response in this setting was also assessed...
Haptoglobin phenotype, angiogenic factors, and preeclampsia riskTracey L Weissgerber
Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
Am J Obstet Gynecol 206:358.e10-8. 2012..We sought to determine whether haptoglobin (Hp) phenotype is related to preeclampsia risk, or to plasma concentrations of soluble endoglin (sEng), soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt-1), and placental growth factor (PlGF)...
Moderate hyperhomocysteinemia decreases endothelial-dependent vasorelaxation in pregnant but not nonpregnant miceRobert W Powers
Magee Women s Research Institute and Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA 15213
Hypertension 44:327-33. 2004..This effect appears to result from a loss in NO-mediated relaxation that may be mediated by the oxidative inactivation of the NO synthase cofactor tetrahydrobiopterin...
Increased myeloperoxidase in the placenta and circulation of women with preeclampsiaRobin E Gandley
Magee Womens Research Institute, 204 Craft Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA
Hypertension 52:387-93. 2008..We speculate that MPO may contribute to the oxidative damage reported in the endothelium and placenta of women with preeclampsia...
Cigarette exposure induces changes in maternal vascular function in a pregnant mouse modelRobin E Gandley
Magee Womens Research Institute, 204 Craft Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA
Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 298:R1249-56. 2010..Functional maternal vascular perturbations during pregnancy, specifically impaired peripheral and uterine vasodilation, may contribute to a mechanism by which smoking results in fetal growth restriction...
Elevated first-trimester uric acid concentrations are associated with the development of gestational diabetesS Katherine Laughon
Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Services, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
Am J Obstet Gynecol 201:402.e1-5. 2009..We sought to demonstrate that elevated first-trimester uric acid is associated with development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM)...
Myogenic reactivity is reduced in small renal arteries isolated from relaxin-treated ratsJacqueline Novak
Department of Obstetrics, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and Magee-Womens Research Institute, Pennsylvania 15213, USA
Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 283:R349-55. 2002..Thus relaxin administration to nonpregnant rats mimics pregnancy, insofar as myogenic reactivity of small renal and mesenteric arteries is reduced in both conditions...
