Renin-angiotensin system blockers and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, which is responsible for the current coronavirus
disease 2019 pandemic, uses angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 as a gateway into host cells. In this
review, we summarize the ...
Renin-angiotensin system as a potential target for new therapeutic approaches in Parkinson’s disease
(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2017)
Impact of Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone System Inhibition on Serum Potassium Levels among Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
(2017-08-01)
Background: The chronic use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blocker has been associated with hyperkalemia in patients with reduced renal function even after the initiation of hemodialysis. ...
Alternative pathways for angiotensin II generation in the cardiovascular system
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2011)
The classical renin-angiotensin system (RAS) consists of enzymes and peptides that regulate blood pressure and electrolyte and fluid homeostasis. Angiotensin II (Ang II) is one of the most important and extensively studied ...
The use of renin angiotensin system inhibitor on mortality in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19): A systematic review and meta-analysis
Background: and Aims; To investigate the association between use of angiotensin-converting enzyme
inhibitor (ACEI)/angiotensin-receptor blocker (ARB) and outcomes of hypertensive COVID-19 patients, a
systematic review ...
Alterations in the water intake caused by central inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme in the rat
(Elsevier B.V., 1992-01-06)
In the present study we investigated the effects of central (i.c.v.) and subcutaneous (s.c.) injections of a 2 μg dose of lisinopryl, an inhibitor of angiotensin I(ANGI)-converting enzyme (CE), on water intake. I.c.v. but ...
Effects of angiotensin type 1 receptor antagonists on Parkinson's disease progression: an exploratory study in the PPMI database
(Elsevier, 2021-05)
Introduction: We explored the potential clinical effects of angiotensin-II AT1 receptor blockers (ARBs) and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) in patients from the Parkinson's Progress Marker Initiative (PPMI) ...
Rho kinase activation and gene expression related to vascular remodeling in normotensive rats with high angiotensin I-converting enzyme levels
(2007)
The RhoA/Rho kinase (ROCK) pathway is a new mechanism of remodeling and vasoconstriction. Few data are available regarding ROCK activation when angiotensin I-converting enzyme is high and blood pressure is normal. We ...
