Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease can progress to steatohepatitis and fibrosis, and is also associated with impaired liver regeneration. The pathophysiology remains elusive. We recently showed that severe steatosis is associated with an increase in portal pressure, suggesting liver flow impairment.

Recent studies have shown that, in cirrhosis, portal angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] levels are increased and hepatic expression of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and the Mas receptor are upregulated, but the effects of Ang-(1-7) on hepatic hemodynamics in cirrhosis have not

Phenylephrine and methoxamine are direct-acting, predominantly α(1) adrenergic receptor (AR) agonists. To better understand their physiologic effects, we screened 463 articles on the basis of PubMed searches of "methoxamine" and "phenylephrine" (limited to human, randomized studies published in English), as

Enhancement of bistability in spinal motoneurons in vivo by the noradrenergic alpha1 agonist methoxamine. Like many types of motoneurons, spinal motoneurons in the adult mammal can exhibit bistable behavior. This means that short periods of excitatory input can initiate long

Using the reservoir-wave approach, we studied wave propagation, reflection, and re-reflection in the canine aorta with administrations of sodium nitroprusside (NP) and methoxamine (Mtx). In 8 anaesthetized dogs, excess pressures were calculated from pressure and flow measurements at 4 locations
