Chronic ethanol consumption induces significant changes in vascular function and is considered as an important risk factor for the development of cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension. The following mechanisms were proposed to explain ethanol-induced hypertension: 1) changes in vascular contractility in which ethanol consumption induces endothelial dysfunction and increased vascul…
Sepsis is defined as an organ dysfunction, with a potential risk of death, caused by a dysregulated host response to an infection. Sepsis impairs the cardiovascular function with a progressive loss of response to vasoconstrictors, hypotension, myocardial depression and circulatory shock. These responses occur through mechanisms associated with the induction of inducible nitric oxide (NO) …
Total or partial interruption of ethanol consumption by alcoholics can lead to the onset of symptoms of varied intensity. According to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10 - 10th Edition; WHO) and the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV - 4th Edition, American Psychiatric Association) these symptoms are classified as the Alcohol Withdrawal Syndrom…
Chronic ethanol consumption induces significant changes in the cardiovascular system, appearing as an important risk factor in the development of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension. Despite the well-established relationship between ethanol intake and hypertension, the precise mechanism underlying this process occurs is not fully understood. The cardiovascular dysfunction associa…

Chronic ethanol consumption induces significant changes in vascular function and is considered as an important risk factor for the development of cardiovascular diseases, such as Hypertension. Among the proposed mechanisms to explain ethanol-induced Hypertension are changes in vascular contractility and neuroendrocrine mechanism In fact, it has been shown that RAS plays a role in ethanol-…
Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) is a type of adipose tissue that surrounds large arteries and veins. In addition, to provide mechanical support to the blood vessels, PVAT also functions as a paracrine and endocrine organ. PVAT secretes several bioactive substances that exert an anti-contractile effect thus modulating the vascular response to different vasoactive agents. In obesity, the…
Chronic ethanol consumption is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. In this sense, the heart is a main target of the deleterious effects of ethanol in the cardiovascular system. Chronic ethanol consumption induces the expression of the enzyme inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase (iNOS) and increases the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the heart and these actions lead …

The mechanisms underlying ethanol-induced cardiovascular dysfunction include changes in vascular contractility and a neurohumoral response. The renin angiotensin system (RAS) is pointed out as one of the main neurohumoral systems linked to oxidative stress since it regulates oxidative and antioxidant pathways. Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) surrounds most blood vessels. In physiologic…
