Bezold—Jarisch反射的生理机制与病理生理意义 总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5
Bezold-Jarisch反射是源于心脏内感受器的抑制性反射,其感受器主要分布在左心室,化学性和机械性刺激均可使之兴奋。感觉冲动经迷走神经无髓纤维上传,反射地引起交感传出活动减弱和迷走传出活动增强,终致心动徐缓和低血压。急性心肌梗塞、冠脉造影和劳力性晕厥时,有Bezold-Jarisch反射参与;慢性心衰和高血压时,心脏内感受器发生重调,反射的敏感性降低。 相似文献

Obesity has a multifactorial origin. However, although environmental variables undoubtedly play a role in the development of obesity, it is now clear that genetic variation is also involved in the determination of an individual's susceptibility to body fat accumulation. In addition, it is also widely accepted that obesity is not a single homogeneous phenotype. It is also heterogeneous regarding its causes and metabolic complications. The regional distribution of body fat appears to be an important correlate of the metabolic complications that have been related to obesity. Due to their higher accumulation of abdominal fat, men are generally more at risk for the metabolic complications of obesity than women whereas some obese women, with large gluteal-femoral adipose depots may have a cosmetic problem which may not necessarily require medical intervention. Several studies have been conducted to understand the mechanisms by which abdominal obesity is related to diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease. It appears that the increased risk of abdominal obesity is the result of complex hormonal and metabolic interactions. Studies in genetic epidemiology have shown that both total body fatness and the regional distribution of body fat have a significant genetic component. Standardized intervention studies using an identical twin design have shown that individuals that have the same genetic background tend to show similar changes in body fat and in plasma lipoprotein levels when exposed to standardized caloric excess or energy restriction. Finally, although abdominal obesity is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease, not every abdominal obese subject will experience metabolic complications, suggesting that some obese individuals may be more susceptible than others. Variation in several genes relevant to lipid and lipoprotein metabolism may alter the relation of abdominal obesity to dyslipoproteinemias. Abdominal obesity should therefore be considered as a factor that exacerbates an individual's susceptibility to cardiovascular disease. 相似文献

Apelin, a member of the adipokine family, is widely distributed in the body and exerts cytoprotective effects on many organs. Apelin isoforms are involved in different physiological processes, including regulation of the cardiovascular system, cardiac contractility, angiogenesis, and energy metabolism. Several investigations have been performed to study the effect of apelin on stem cell therapy. This review aims to summarize the literature representing the effects of apelin on stem cell properties. Furthermore, this review discusses the therapeutic potential of apelin‐treated stem cells for cardiovascular diseases and demonstrates the effect of stem cells overexpressing apelin on energy metabolism. Stem cells with their unique characteristics play a crucial role in the maintenance of tissue integrity. These cells participate in tissue regeneration via multiple mechanisms. Although preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated the therapeutic potential of stem cells in various diseases, their application in regenerative medicine has not been efficient. A number of strategies such as genetic modification or treatment of stem cells with different factors have been used to improve the efficacy of cell therapy and to increase their survival after transplantation. This article reviews the effect of apelin treatment on the efficacy of cell therapy. 相似文献

Objective: We investigated whether the presence of concomitant coronary heart disease (CHD) in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) can be explained by intra‐abdominal fat accumulation and compared different measures of adiposity as predictors of CHD in patients with PAD. Research Methods and Procedures: Data were collected from patients enrolled in the Second Manifestations of ARTerial disease (SMART) study, an ongoing prospective cohort study of patients with manifest vascular disease or vascular risk factors at the University Medical Centre Utrecht. The current analysis includes 315 patients, mean age 59 ± 10 years, who had PAD with (n = 79) or without (n = 236) CHD. Parameters of adiposity were measured, and intra‐abdominal fat and subcutaneous fat were measured ultrasonographically. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to Adult Treatment Panel III. Results: The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was higher among patients with CHD (63%) than among patients without CHD (48%). All parameters of adiposity indicated more fat in patients with CHD, except for subcutaneous fat. Waist circumference was associated with 64% higher prevalence of CHD (confidence interval, 20% to 123%) per 1 standard deviation increase in waist circumference after adjustment for age and sex. The odds ratio for waist circumference remained virtually the same after additional adjustment for the components of the metabolic syndrome and smoking. Discussion: An increased waist circumference, a crude measure of intra‐abdominal fat, is associated with an increased risk of concomitant CHD in patients with PAD. 相似文献

Objectives: To examine the relation of leptin to insulin resistance, as measured by euglycemic insulin clamp, and insulin resistance syndrome factors in thin and heavy children. Research Methods and Procedures: Anthropometrics, insulin, blood pressure, and leptin were measured in 342 11‐ to 14‐year‐old children (189 boys, 153 girls, 272 white, 70 black). Insulin sensitivity (M) was determined by milligrams glucose uptake per kilogram per minute and expressed as M/lean body mass (Mlbm). Children were divided by median BMI (boys = 20.5 kg/m2; girls = 21.4 kg/m2) into below‐median (thin) and above‐median (heavy) groups. Correlation coefficients between log‐leptin and components of insulin resistance syndrome were adjusted for Tanner stage, gender, and race. Results: BMI was related to leptin in boys (r = 0.70, p < 0.001) and girls (r = 0.75, p < 0.001). Leptin was higher in girls than boys (32.6 vs. 12.3 ng/mL, p = 0.0001). Leptin levels increased in girls and decreased in boys during puberty, paralleling the changes in body fat. Leptin was significantly correlated with insulin, Mlbm, triglycerides, and blood pressure in heavy children and only with insulin in thin children. After adjustment for body fat, the correlations remained significant for insulin and Mlbm in heavy children and with insulin in thin children. Discussion: Significant associations were found between leptin and insulin resistance in children, and these associations were attenuated by adjustment for adiposity. These findings at age 13 likely have long‐term consequences in the development of the obesity‐insulin resistance‐related cardiovascular risk profile. 相似文献

Objective: The relationship between stress reactivity and total or central adiposity in children has not been widely studied. Data from two studies were combined to determine the relationship between reactivity to interpersonal stress and the adiposity of children. Research Methods and Procedures: Stress reactivity to an interpersonal stressor (speech) was measured in 36 boys (9.8 ± 1.3 years of age) and 27 girls (9.3 ± 1.3 years of age). Total adiposity (percentage body fat) was estimated from skinfolds and central adiposity from the abdominal girth. Multiple regression was used to establish the associations of change in perceived stress and heart rate reactivity with adiposity. Age, sex, ethnicity, and baseline perceived stress and heart rate served as covariates for total adiposity. Fat mass was included as an additional covariate for the prediction of log abdominal girth (central adiposity). Results: Based on adjusted β‐weights, change in perceived stress (β = 1.13, p ≤ 0.001) and heart rate reactivity (β = 0.14, p ≤ 0.03) independently predicted percentage body fat. Heart rate reactivity (β = 0.002, p ≤ 0.04) independently predicted log abdominal girth. Discussion: Reactivity to psychological stress may initiate the antecedents of cardiovascular disease before adolescence by increasing total and central adiposity. Future studies should determine whether stress reactivity increases the adiposity of youth by increasing their consumption of energy‐dense snack foods and decreasing their willingness to be physically active. 相似文献

Objective: Retinol binding protein‐4 (RBP4) has been reported to impair insulin sensitivity throughout the body. We investigated the relationship between serum RBP4 levels and adiposity indices as well as metabolic risk variables. Research Methods and Procedure: We recruited a total of 102 healthy women 21 to 67 years old. We assessed body composition by computed tomography and divided the study population into four groups based on body weight and visceral fat area (non‐obese without visceral adiposity, non‐obese with visceral adiposity, obese without visceral adiposity, and obese with visceral adiposity). Serum RBP4 levels were measured by radioimmunoassay. Results: Despite similar levels of total body fat, non‐obese women had lower systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, triglyceride (TG), low‐density lipoprotein (LDL)‐cholesterol levels, insulin resistance indices, and RBP4 levels than non‐obese women with visceral adiposity and had higher high‐density lipoprotein‐cholesterol levels. Similarly, obese women without visceral adiposity had lower blood pressure, total cholesterol, TG levels, insulin resistance indices, and RBP4 levels than obese women with visceral adiposity. In addition, despite having increased body fat, obese women without visceral adiposity had lower TGs, insulin resistance indices, and serum RBP4 levels than non‐obese women with visceral adiposity. By step‐wise multiple regression analysis, visceral fat areas and LDL‐cholesterol levels independently affected RBP4 levels. Discussion: We determined that serum RBP4 levels are independently associated with visceral fat and LDL‐cholesterol levels. These results suggest that, irrespective of body weight, visceral obesity is an independent predictor of serum RBP4 levels, and RBP4 may represent a link between visceral obesity and cardiovascular disease. 相似文献
