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 ...

Significant correlation of angiotensin converting enzyme and glycoprotein IIIa genes polymorphisms with unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss in north of Iran [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Spontaneous abortion is considered as the most complex problem during pregnancy. Thrombophilia is resumed as a cause of recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). Glycoprotein IIIa (GPIIIa) gene is involved in thrombosis and abortion.

Bioactive angiotensin peptides: focus on angiotensin IV [PDF]
Journal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2001 JRAAS 2001;2:205-10 Introduction The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) was initially identified as a circulating humoral system with the effector peptide,angiotensin II (Ang II),generated by an enzymatic cascade. Angiotensinogen, which is synthesised in the liver, is cleaved by renin,a product of the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney, to form ...

Angiotensin II blockade and aortic-root dilation in Marfan's syndrome [PDF]
, 2008 Background: Progressive enlargement of the aortic root, leading to dissection, is the main cause of premature death in patients with Marfan's syndrome. Recent data from mouse models of Marfan's syndrome suggest that aortic-root enlargement is caused by ...

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019 Background Previous studies demonstrated that angiotensin (Ang) III, not Ang II, is the predominant endogenous agonist for Ang type‐2 receptor (AT2R)‐induced natriuresis in normal rats, and that hypertensive 12‐week‐old spontaneously hypertensive rats ...
