Vascular tone control in humans: insights from studies in Bartter's/Gitelman's syndromes

Kidney International
L A Calò

Abstract

Studies in patients with Bartter's and Gitelman's syndromes performed in the last 10 years have provided important insights into the mechanistic details of relevant pathways of angiotensin II signaling and vascular tone regulation, therefore making these syndromes a good human model to gain insight into the mechanisms responsible for maintaining/controlling vascular tone. Extensive studies of patients with Bartter's/Gitelman's syndromes have, in fact, shown biochemical abnormalities of angiotensin II short- and long-term cell signaling, which depict a mirror image of those found in hypertension. The information obtained from the study of this human model of altered vascular tone regulation show that it can be used to gather more general data and/or confirm mechanistic details of the cellular and biochemical events involved in the pathophysiology of vascular tone control and to shed light on the multiplicity of the angiotensin II signaling-related mechanisms responsible for the pathophysiology of hypertension and its long-term complication such as cardiovascular remodeling and atherogenesis.

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology

Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.

Calcium & Bioenergetics

Bioenergetic processes, including cellular respiration and photosynthesis, concern the transformation of energy by cells. Here is the latest research on the role of calcium in bioenergetics.

Atherosclerosis Disease Progression

Atherosclerosis is the buildup of plaque on artery walls, causing stenosis which can eventually lead to clinically apparent cardiovascular disease. Find the latest research on atherosclerosis disease progression here.
