The Origin and Advancement of Cardiovascular Physiology in Brazil: The contribution of Eduardo Krieger to research groups

Frontiers in Physiology, 2016
Since 1996, symposia devoted to the discussion of advances in cardiovascular physiology have been alternately organized by Brazilian research groups, most of which were created or joined by PhD trainees of Eduardo M Krieger.

Children With Short Stature Display Reduced ACE2 Expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
BackgroundThe cause of short stature remains often unknown. The renin-angiotensin system contributes to growth regulation. Several groups reported that angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)-knockout mice weighed less than controls.

Effects of Vasodepressor vs. Vasopressor Arms of Renin Angiotensin System on Renal Hemodynamic Regulation in Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury; Sex Difference [PDF]

مجله دانشکده پزشکی اصفهان, 2022
The exact mechanisms involved in acute renal injury (AKI) due to renal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) are not fully understood, although it has been shown that the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) may play an important role in IR-associated AKI.

How does angiotensin AT2 receptor activation help neuronal differentiation and improve neuronal pathological situations?

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012
The AT2 receptor of angiotensin II (Ang II) has long been thought to be limited to few tissues, with the primary effect of counteracting the AT1 receptor. Functional studies in neuronal cells have demonstrated AT2 receptor capability to modulate neuronal

Effect of Increased Potassium Intake on Adrenal Cortical and Cardiovascular Responses to Angiotensin II: A Randomized Crossover Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Increased potassium intake lowers blood pressure in patients with hypertension, but increased potassium intake also elevates plasma concentrations of the blood pressure‐raising hormone aldosterone.

Current status of liver transplantation for non‐B non‐C liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 42-52, January 2023., 2023
Recently, the cases of LT for non‐B non‐C cirrhosis and HCC have been increasing in Japan as well as worldwide. Perioperative management of non‐B non‐C liver disease is problematic due to various risk factors, including alcohol consumption and metabolic syndrome‐related risks, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus.

In-Silico evidence for two receptors based strategy of SARS-CoV-2 [PDF]

Front. Mol. Biosci., 09 June 2021, 2020
We propose a novel numerical method able to determine efficiently and effectively the relationship of complementarity between portions of proteins surfaces. This innovative and general procedure, based on the representation of the molecular iso-electron density surface in terms of 2D Zernike polynomials, allows the rapid and quantitative assessment of ...

Comprehensive genetic screening for vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome through an amplification‐based next‐generation sequencing system

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 191, Issue 1, Page 37-51, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is a hereditary connective tissue disorder (HCTD) characterized by arterial dissection/aneurysm/rupture, sigmoid colon rupture, or uterine rupture. Diagnosis is confirmed by detecting heterozygous variants in COL3A1.

New angiotensins

Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2008
Accumulation of a large body of evidence during the past two decades testifies to the complexity of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). The incorporation of novel enzymatic pathways, resulting peptides, and their corresponding receptors into the biochemical cascade of the RAS provides a better understanding of its role in the regulation of ...
