The drug works by suppressing an enzyme that controls blood flow, allowing the vessels to relax and widen.
Here, we performed single-cell phenotypic and functional characterization of pediatric SLE patients and healthy controls blood via mass cytometry.
Dr. Reis studied the ways in which the brain relates to emotional behavior, controls blood pressure, protects against strokes and generates neurotransmitters affecting mood and behavior.
But other drugs -- like coumadin, which controls blood clotting -- pose risks that can be partially controlled by scrupulous monitoring and recalibration.
The race between Edwards and Medtronic involves one of the heart's four valves — the aortic valve, which controls blood flow into the aorta from the heart.
During the day, the pancreas increases its production of the hormone insulin, which controls blood sugar levels, and then slows it down at night.

The researchers measured the women's levels of glucose, the main form of blood sugar, and insulin, a hormone that controls blood sugar.
These data demonstrate that d-psicose controls blood glucose levels by reducing lipotoxicity in liver and by preserving pancreatic β-cell function.
Using the gene-editing technique CRISPR Cas9, the researchers modified epidermal stem cells with a version of the gene encoding GLP1 — a hormone that controls blood sugar levels and suppresses appetite — which could be switched on by the antibiotic doxycycline.
A. The mitral valve controls blood flow from the left atrium (one of the two upper chambers of the heart) to the left ventricle, the strong lower chamber that pumps blood out of the heart and into the aorta.
