Background and Objective: Previously, it was demonstrated that marinobufagenin (MBG) is
implicated in the development of ethanol withdrawal in rats. It has been shown that ethanol …

An endogenous natriuretic and vasoconstrictor Na/K-ATPase inhibitor, marinobufagenin

mediated hypertensive states including essential hypertension and preeclampsia (PE) …

Background Levels of marinobufagenin (MBG), an endogenous bufadienolide Na/K-ATPase
(NKA) inhibitor, increase in preeclampsia and in NaCl-sensitive hypertension. Methods We …

An increasing body of evidence suggests that an endogenous mammalian bufadienolide
(BD) may be involved in the regulation of Na+, K+-ATPase activity and the pathogenesis of …

1, 4‐Butanediol (BDO)—used as solvent and abused for its euphoric effects—is converted to
gamma‐hydroxybutyrate (GHB) by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase. This double‐blind …

Although obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an independent risk factor for hypertension, the
underlying mechanisms are not clearly understood. Apnea and hypopnea episodes during …

The bufadienolides are a group of steroid hormones that circulate in blood and are excreted
in urine. They have the ability to inhibit the adenosine triphosphatase sodium-potassium …
