Increased Expression of Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptors in the Solitary-Vagal Complex Blunts Renovascular Hypertension
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2014-10-01)
Angiotensin II increases and decreases arterial pressure by acting at angiotensin type 1 and type 2 receptors, respectively. Renovascular hypertensive rats exhibit a high level of activity of the peripheral and central ...
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 ...
Diversity of pathways for intracellular angiotensin II synthesis
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2009-01-01)
Purpose of reviewThe renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has undergone continuous advancement since the initial identification of renin as a pressor agent. Traditionally considered a circulatory system, the RAS is now known to ...
Angiotensin converting enzyme polymorphism in type 2 diabetes mellitus
(2014)
This study was undertaken to assess the frequency of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. A total of 162 patients with type 2 diabetes and 160 ...
Renin-angiotensin system as a potential target for new therapeutic approaches in Parkinson’s disease
(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2017)
Increased Expression of Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptors in the Solitary-Vagal Complex Blunts Renovascular Hypertension
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2015)
New mass spectrometric assay for angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 activity
(Lippincott Williams & WilkinsPhiladelphiaEUA, 2006)
Angiotensin-(1-9) reverses experimental hypertension and cardiovascular damage by inhibition of the angiotensin converting enzyme/ang ii axis
(UNIV CATOLICA DE VALPARAISO, 2014)
Background: Little is known about the biological effects of angiotensin-(1-9), but available evidence shows that angiotensin-(1-9) has beneficial effects in preventing/ameliorating cardiovascular remodeling. Objective: In ...
ACE2-angiotensin-(1-7)-Mas axis in renal ischaemia/reperfusion injury in rats
(Portland Press Ltd, 2010-11-01)
AngII (angiotensin II), ACE (angiotensin I-converting enzyme) and the AT(1) receptor (AngII type I receptor) are associated with the inflammatory process and microvascular dysfunction of AKI (acute kidney injury) induced ...
Inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system prevents seizures in a rat model of epilepsy
(PORTLAND PRESS LTD, 2010)
The RAS (renin angiotensin system) is classically involved in BP (blood pressure) regulation and water electrolyte balance, and in the central nervous system it has been mostly associated with homoeostatic processes, such ...
