Gomes P, Sa R, Aguiar G, Paes M, Alzamora A, Lima W, et al.
Sci Rep . 2017 Jul; 7(1):5655. PMID: 28720883
In this study, we investigated some mechanisms involved in sodium-dependent hypertension of rats exposed to chronic salt (NaCl) intake from weaning until adult age. Weaned male Wistar rats were placed...

Zacarias A, Barbosa M, Guerra-Sa R, de Castro U, Bezerra F, de Lima W, et al.
Redox Rep . 2017 Apr; 22(6):515-523. PMID: 28403686
Oxidative stress, physical inactivity and high-fat (FAT) diets are associated with hepatic disorders such as metabolic syndrome (MS). The therapeutic effects of physical training (PT) were evaluated in rats with...

Dornas W, Cardoso L, Silva M, Machado N, Chianca Jr D, Alzamora A, et al.
Sci Rep . 2017 Apr; 7:46051. PMID: 28397867
There is evidence that diets rich in salt or simple sugars as fructose are associated with abnormalities in blood pressure regulation. However, the mechanisms underlying pathogenesis of salt- and fructose-induced...

Granato A, Gomes P, Martins Sa R, Marques Borges G, Alzamora A, de Oliveira L, et al.
Neurosci Lett . 2017 Feb; 642:142-147. PMID: 28189741
Redox imbalance in regions of the CNS controlling blood pressure is increasingly recognized as a leading factor for hypertension. Nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) of the dorsomedial medulla is the main...

Cardoso L, Colombari E, Toney G
J Appl Physiol (1985) . 2012 Sep; 113(9):1423-31. PMID: 22984242
The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is important for maintenance of sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) and cardiovascular function. PVN-mediated increases of SNA often involve the excitatory amino acid L-glutamate (L-glu), whose...

Gomide J, de Menezes R, Fernandes L, Silva F, Cardoso L, Miranda P, et al.
Exp Physiol . 2012 Jun; 98(1):57-66. PMID: 22730415
Previous studies have shown that postweaning protein restriction induces changes in the sympathetic nervous system in rats, leading to alterations in cardiovascular parameters. In addition, the renin-angiotensin system is also...

Loss I, Fernandes L, Martins C, Cardoso L, Silva M, Dias-da-Silva V, et al.
Life Sci . 2007 Sep; 81(11):944-50. PMID: 17822720
Earlier studies from the authors' laboratory showed that malnourishment induces alterations in the cardiovascular homeostasis increasing the basal mean arterial pressure and heart rate. In this study, the authors evaluated...

Silva M, Chianca Jr D, de Paula H, Cardoso L, Colombari E, Pedrosa M
J Nutr . 2003 Jan; 133(1):15-20. PMID: 12514260
Epidemiologic and experimental data suggest that excess iron may contribute to the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Because increased LDL cholesterol, decreased HDL cholesterol and alteration of systolic blood pressure...
