Sex-specific mechanisms of cerebral microvascular BK <sub>Ca</sub> dysfunction in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease
2023-06-08
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Cerebral microvascular dysfunction and nitro-oxidative stress are present in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and may contribute to disease progression and severity. Large conductance Ca 2+ -activated K + channels (BK Ca ) play an essential role in vasodilatory responses and maintenance of myogenic tone in resistance arteries. BK Ca impairment can lead to microvascular dysfunction an...
