Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a highly prevalent disease whose aetiology is mostly vasculogenic. It is nowadays considered a marker of future cardiovascular events reflecting the underlying endothelial dysfunction, the common link with the metabolic syndrome (MetS). The recent association between MetS, endothelial dysfunction and peripheral artery disease, but not with coronary artery disease (CAD), suggests tha...

No primeiro ano da licenciatura em Ciências da Nutrição, na Faculdade de Ciências da Nutrição e Alimentação, da Universidade do Porto, existem duas Unidades Curriculares que introduzem a Bioquímica aos estudantes [Química Orgânica e Bioquímica I (no 1º e 2º semestres, respetivamente)] e cujos programas e modalidades pedagógicas estão inter-relacionados, confrontando o estudante, progressivamente ao longo do ano...
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is important in calcification and its expression seems to be associated with the inflammatory process. We investigated the in vitro acute effects of compounds used for the prevention or treatment of cardiovascular diseases on total ALP activity from male Wistar rat heart homogenate. ALP activity was determined by quantifying, at 410 nm, the pnitrophenol released from p-nitrophenylphos...
