Acute Kidney Injury in a Case Series of Patients with Confirmed COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019): Role of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 and Renin-Angiotensin System Blockade

Case Reports in Nephrology, 2020
The renin-angiotensin system plays a very critical role in hypertension, diabetes, and kidney and heart diseases. The blockade of the renin-angiotensin system results in the prevention of progression of renal and cardiac damage.

Engineered Dual‐Function Antibody‐Like Proteins to Combat SARS‐CoV‐2‐Induced Immune Dysregulation and Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Engineered antibody‐like proteins block the SARS‐CoV‐2 spike protein from binding to host receptors and suppress immune overactivation through an MBL‐based scaffold. These dual‐function proteins effectively alleviate inflammation, complement activation, and lung injury, offering a promising therapeutic strategy against severe COVID‐19 and its ...

Comparison of Pharmacy Refill Data With Chemical Adherence Testing in Assessing Medication Nonadherence in a Safety Net Hospital Setting

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Pharmacy fill data are a practical tool for assessing medication nonadherence. However, previous studies have not compared the accuracy of pharmacy fill data to measurement of plasma drug levels, or chemical adherence testing (CAT).

Serum angiotensin converting enzyme [PDF]

Thorax, 1999
Marshall and Shaw in their editorial1 are correct to hypothesise that the normal range of serum angiotensin converting enzyme (SACE) would be narrower if ACE genotype (insertion/deletion; ID) is also taken into account. This would split its wide normal range into three narrower ranges defined by the genotypes II, ID and …

Adaptive Antioxidant Nanomedicines Inhibit Ferroptosis in Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells to Alleviate Diabetic Kidney Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, an adaptive antioxidant nanodrug (AAN) is developed through the self‐polymerization of L‐selenocysteine. The AAN exhibits dual functionalities: antioxidant activity (scavenging reactive oxygen species) and mitochondrial targeting. Moreover, the released selenium (Se) participates in the synthesis of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), which

KLK1 as an Epithelial‐Specific Brake Inhibits Colorectal Tumorigenesis by Suppressing B1R‐Mediated Fibroblast Phenotypic Transition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
KLK1 downregulation disrupts the intestinal mucosal barrier and impairs kallikrein‐kinin signaling, thereby reducing Lys‐des‐Arg9‐BK production. This enhances B1R activation on ADAMDEC1⁺ fibroblasts, promoting inflammation and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. The resulting iCAFs promote colorectal cancer progression, highlighting a novel KLK1‐B1R
