Abstract
Millimeter-wave electromagnetic radiation (EHF-therapy) is an effective method for treating various age-related pathologies, including cardiovascular diseases. Multidirectional changes in the synthesis of NO-synthase (eNOS) and endothelin-1 and the expression of angiotensin-2 and vasopressin were observed during EHF irradiation of aging human endothelial cell cultures, depending on the duration of the irradiation. These data showed that the EHF irradiation stimulates the functional activity of endotheliocytes, which could be of importance in the search for new approaches to the treatment of arterial hypertension and atherosclerosis.
