Studies have reported increased consumption of manufactured foods containing high concentrations of fructose, which has been associated with the development of metabolic syndrome (MS). Experiments carried out by our group showed that rats submitted to chronic consumption of fructose presented insulin resistance and hemodynamic and autonomic dysfunctions associated with an inflammatory and…
Nowadays, an exacerbated increase in fructose consumption has been observed due to its large use in the food industry, which seems to be related to the increase in the prevalence of metabolic syndrome. It is well known that high ingestion of fructose leads to increased adipose tissue, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, hemodynamic and autonomic dysfunctions. Studies of our group have also …

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) is a rare and progressive disease, with multiple etiologies and poor prognosis. The cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction plays a role on PAH pathophysiology, contributing to clinical deterioration and disease progression. Recently, clinical studies have been shown that the exacerbation of carotid chemoreflex activity might be one potential mechanism i…
The increase in Blood Pressure (BP) in postmenopausal women has been well documented. In addition to pharmacological therapy, Combined Exercise Training (CET) (aerobic exercise complemented with resistance exercise) has been clinically recommended for BP control in this populatio, however, the association of these two types of therapies has been poorly studied. This project aims to evalua…
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Among the risk factors that lead to the development of these diseases, hypertension has a high prevalence in both sexes. Regular exercise, especially aerobic dynamic, has been recommended as nonpharmacological conduct in the management of cardiac patients. However, the effects of resistance exercise training in hypertensive…

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) is a rare and progressive disease with poor prognosis. In PAH, vascular impairment is not restricted to pulmonary circulation as systemic vascular dysfunction has been reported. Accumulating evidence from my PhD study and others have shown that an augmented carotid chemoreflex contributes to the sympathetic hyperactivity at rest and overall cardiovasc…
