CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 contribute to clopidogrel bioactivation. CYP2C19 no‐function alleles diminish clopidogrel's antiplatelet effects and clinical effectiveness. Coadministration of either a CYP2C19 or a CYP3A4 inhibitor may also reduce clopidogrel's antiplatelet effects and lead to phenoconversion in patients without a CYP2C19 no‐function allele (normal/

Current evidence suggests that angiotensin-(1-7) plays an important role in the regulation of tissue blood flow. This evidence, however, is restricted to studies in animals and human forearm. Therefore, we studied the effects of intrarenal angiotensin-(1-

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Angiotensin-(1-7) and Its Effects in the Kidney
Angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-[1-7]) is a heptapeptide member of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), and acts as a vasodilator and antagonist of angiotensin II (Ang II) in the vasculature.

Association of COPD with adverse outcomes in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction
Abstract We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to detect the impact of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on the prognosis of heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We systematically screened eligible literature from three electronic databases, PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library, up to April 2023.

Differential actions of angiotensin-(1-7) in the kidney
Differential actions of angiotensin-(1-7) in the kidney. Angiotensin-(1-7) is a bioactive component of the renin-angiotensin system that is endogenously formed in the circulation and various tissues by several enzymatic pathways from either angiotensin ...

Abstract Socio‐economic status (SES) has been associated with incident and prevalent heart failure (HF), as well as its morbidity and mortality. However, the precise nature of the relationship between SES and HF remains unclear due to inconsistent data. This study aims to provide a comprehensive assessment and data synthesis of the relationship between

Impact of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition on post- coronary artery bypass interleukin 6 release [PDF]
Background: Angiotensin 1 converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors reduce morbidity and mortality after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). This benefit may result from an anti- inflammatory action.
