Background/Aim: Rho kinase is a downstream effector of Rho GTPase that is known to
regulate various pathological processes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the regulation …

Abstract The Rho kinases (ROCKs) are recognized as a critical regulator of vascular
functions in cardiovascular disorders. It is crucial to illustrate the association of ROCKs …

Background: Few scientific studies have been conducted about the effect of yoga on
biochemical variables such as total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol …

Abnormal proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) plays an
important role in vascular diseases. The Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) signaling …

Endothelial dysfunction is a key event in the development of vascular disease, and it
precedes clinically obvious vascular pathology. Abnormal activation of the RhoA/Rho kinase …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of 8 weeks moderate intensity
aerobic exercise on serum retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4) levels in female athletes …

Objective: To investigate the effects and mechanisms of amlodipine therapy on endothelium
dysfunction induced by angiotensin-II (Ang-II) stimulation. Methods: Human umbilical vein …

Rho-associated coiled-coil forming protein kinases (ROCKs), the downstream target
proteins of RhoA, are ubiquitously expressed serine-threonine protein kinases. ROCKs have …

Introduction It is believed that Rhodiola rosea is able to reduce various stressors caused by
chemical and biological factors. Studies have demonstrated that Rhodiola rosea is able to …

Derangement of Rho-associated kinases (ROCKs) has been related to coronary artery
disease and stroke. ROCK2, rather than ROCK1, plays a predominant role in vascular …
