1.	Ischemia 01/01/2014 - "Pharmacological modulation of these channels during ischemia-reperfusion and hyperkalemic exposure show promising results on the preservation of NO and EDHF-mediated endothelial function, which suggests the potential of targeting endothelial K(+) and TRP channels for myocardial protection during cardiac surgery. " 01/01/2014 - "Hyperkalemic exposure and concurrent ischemia-reperfusion during cardioplegic intervention compromise NO and EDHF-mediated function and the impairment involves alterations of K(+) channels, that is, KATP and KCa, and Ca(2+)-permeable TRP channels in endothelial cells. " 04/01/2009 - "The role of SK(Ca) and IK(Ca) channels in myogenic tone and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) responsiveness was investigated under control conditions and after ischemia and reperfusion in parenchymal arterioles (PA) versus middle cerebral arteries (MCA). " 09/01/2002 - "Endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF)-mediated dilations are potentiated after several pathologies, including ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). " 07/01/2009 - "EDHF was likely the sole mediator responsible for the direct effects of LPC on U-46619-vasoconstriction, whereas the augmented vasoconstrictor responses following LPC washout may in part be related to an increase in ET-1, and a striking reduction in the bioavailability of NO. Our data suggest that in addition to reducing the accumulation of LPC to prevent ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) damage, efforts targeting an improved endothelium-dependent regulation of vascular tone could be an attractive approach to limit the cardiac damage induced by I/R."
2.	Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) 10/01/2007 - "The aims of the present study were to evaluate the changes of endothelium-dependent dilatation of arteries in hypertension and the role of ADMA in NO- and EDHF-mediated vasodilatation. " 11/15/2004 - "The present study was designed to elucidate whether the conduction of vasomotor responses mediated by endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) in rat mesenteric arteries is altered during hypertension. " 03/01/1996 - "Another goal of this study was to evaluate whether this model of hypertension is accompanied by changes in the activity of endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF). " 01/01/2016 - "In hypertension, both NO-mediated relaxation in the conduit artery and NO-, PGI2-, and EDHF-mediated dilation in the resistant artery were markedly impaired. " 04/30/2015 - "In conclusion, an impairment in EDHF/H2S signaling occurs in earlier state of GC-induced hypertension in rats suggesting that counteracting this dysfunction may be beneficial to manage DEX-associated increase in blood pressure."
3.	Hypercholesterolemia 02/01/2015 - "The role of endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) in either the healthy circulation or in those with hypercholesterolemia is unknown. " 11/01/2005 - "Since ACh dilation in the arterioles of mice is mainly mediated via EDHF, we conclude that hypercholesterolemia does not alter EDHF release and efficacy. " 05/01/2005 - "These results indicate that hypercholesterolemia alone minimally affects the EDHF-mediated relaxations, and diabetes mellitus significantly attenuated the responses, whereas their combination markedly attenuates the responses with a compensatory involvement of NO and a negative contribution of EDCF." 05/01/2005 - "Influence of diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, and their combination on EDHF-mediated responses in mice." 06/01/2007 - "However, EDHF-mediated responses were not reduced by hypercholesterolemia and subsequently improved their function after application of low cholesterol diet. "
4.	Cardiovascular Diseases (Cardiovascular Disease) 05/01/2005 - "The impact of dyslipidaemia (DL), a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, on the nature and the efficacy of EDHF has not been evaluated yet. " 07/16/2009 - "A better characterization of EDHF-mediated responses should allow the determination of whether or not new drugable targets can be identified for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases." 02/01/2009 - "Aging and cardiovascular diseases are associated with endothelial dysfunctions that can involve a decrease in NO bioavailability, alterations of EDHF-mediated responses and/or enhanced production of endothelium-derived contracting factors. " 07/01/1998 - "The identification of EDHF and the understanding of its physiological role could lead to the design of new therapies în several cardiovascular diseases." 07/01/1997 - "This could lead to the design of new therapies aimed at correcting the impairment of EDHF-mediated dilatation in a number of cardiovascular diseases."
5.	Myocardial Infarction 12/01/2006 - "To analyze gender related alterations in NO-, PGI(2)- and EDHF-dependent endothelial function in the thoracic aorta 7 and 42 days after myocardial infarction (MI). " 12/01/2006 - "Functional alterations in NO, PGI2 and EDHF pathways in the aortic endothelium after myocardial infarction in rats." 12/01/2005 - "Improvement of EDHF by chronic ACE inhibition declines rapidly after withdrawal in rats with myocardial infarction." 12/01/2005 - "These findings highlight the importance of EDHF impairment in development of endothelial dysfunction after myocardial infarction and the possibility of improving EDHF-mediated vasodilation with chronic ACE inhibitor therapy. " 12/01/2005 - "Long-term quinapril (8 months) resulted in markedly improved endothelium-dependent vasodilation in rats with myocardial infarction, which could be attributed to marked improvement in non-NO/prostanoid-mediated relaxation (ie, EDHF).
