Abstract
ABSTRACT Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), an extracorporeal method necessary for the surgical correction of complex congenital heart defects, incites significant inflammation that affects vascular function. These changes are associated with alterations in cellular metabolism that promote energy production to deal with this stress. Utilizing laser Doppler perfusion monitoring coupled with iontophoresis in patients undergoing corrective heart surgery, we hypothesized that temporal, untargeted metabolomics could be performed to assess the link between metabolism and vascular function. Globally, we found 2,404 unique features in the plasma of patients undergoing CPB. Metabolites related to arginine biosynthesis were the most altered by CPB. Correlation of metabolic profiles with endothelial-dependent (acetylcholine [ACh]) or endothelial-independent (sodium nitroprusside [SNP]) vascular reactivity identified purine metabolism being most consistently associated with either vascular response. Concerning ACh-mediated responses, acetylcarnitine levels were most strongly associated, while glutamine levels were associated with both ACh and SNP responsiveness. These data provide insight into the metabolic landscape of children undergoing CPB for corrective heart surgery and provide detail into how these metabolites relate to physiological aberrations in vascular function.

Abstract
The maintenance of the physiological values of blood pressure is closely related to unchangeable factors (genetic predisposition or pathological alterations) but also to modifiable factors (dietary fat and salt, sedentary lifestyle, overweight, inappropriate combinations of drugs, alcohol abuse, smoking and use of psychogenic substances). Hypertension is usually characterized by the presence of a chronic increase in systemic blood pressure above the threshold value and is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease, including myocardial infarction, stroke, micro- and macro-vascular diseases. Hypertension is closely related to functional changes in the endothelium, such as an altered production of vasoconstrictive and vasodilator substances, which lead to an increase in vascular resistance. These alterations make the endothelial tissue unresponsive to autocrine and paracrine stimuli, initially determining an adaptive response, which over time lead to an increase in risk or disease. The gut microbiota is composed of a highly diverse bacterial population of approximately 1014 bacteria. A balanced intestinal microbiota preserves the digestive and absorbent functions of the intestine, protecting from pathogens and toxic metabolites in the circulation and reducing the onset of various diseases. The gut microbiota has been shown to produce unique metabolites potentially important in the generation of hypertension and endothelial dysfunction. This review highlights the close connection between hypertension, endothelial dysfunction and gut microbiota.
