Background The renin‐angiotensin system plays a crucial role in human physiology, and its main hormone, angiotensin, activates 2 G‐protein–coupled receptors, the angiotensin type‐1 and type‐2 receptors, in almost every organ.

Objective We investigated whether a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) affects the quality of inpatient acute myocardial infarction (AMI) care and long‐term mortality post‐AMI. Methods We analyzed data from 784,091 adults, 6,047 with a diagnosis of RA, from England and Wales hospitalized with AMI between 2005 and 2019 from the Myocardial Ischaemia ...

Clinical, Histologic, and Serological Predictors of Renal Function Loss in Lupus Nephritis
Objective Kidney survival is the ultimate goal in lupus nephritis (LN) management, but long‐term predictors remain inadequately studied, requiring long‐term follow‐up. This study aimed to identify baseline and early longitudinal predictors of kidney survival in the Accelerating Medicines Partnership LN longitudinal cohort.

Angiotensin System Autoantibodies Correlate With Routine Prognostic Indicators for COVID-19 Severity
ObjectiveWe previously showed that angiotensin type-1 receptor and ACE2 autoantibodies (AT1-AA, ACE2-AA) are associated with COVID-19 severity. Our aim is to find correlations of these autoantibodies with routine biochemical parameters that allow an ...

Objective To investigate the association between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and coronary artery calcium (CAC) prevalence, incidence, and progression over four years in adults without prior cardiovascular disease. Methods A case‐cohort study within the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA‐Brasil) included 585 participants (86 patients with ...

This study demonstrates that ALY688, a drug mimicking the heart‐protective hormone adiponectin, reduces myocardial ischemia injury. ALY688 increases the production of extracellular vesicles, which carry protective cargo including adiponectin itself.

Bioactive angiotensin peptides: focus on angiotensin IV [PDF]
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 ...

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 ...
