Reverse translation of phase I biomarker findings links the activity of angiotensin-(1–7) to repression of hypoxia inducible factor-1α in vascular sarcomas

BMC Cancer, 2012
Background In a phase I study of angiotensin-(1–7) [Ang-(1–7)], clinical benefit was associated with reduction in plasma placental growth factor (PlGF) concentrations. The current study examines Ang-(1–7) induced changes in biomarkers according to cancer

Angiotensin-converting enzyme genotype and late respiratory complications of mustard gas exposure [PDF]

, 2008
Exposure to mustard gas frequently results in long-term respiratory complications. However the factors which drive the development and progression of these complications remain unclear.

Outcomes in Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis in Systemic Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases: Real‐World Data From the ILD‐PRO Registry

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective We evaluated baseline characteristics, treatment patterns, and outcomes in patients with systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease–associated progressive pulmonary fibrosis (SARD‐PPF) and evaluated whether outcomes differed by SARD subtype. Methods The ILD‐PRO Registry is a prospective multicenter US registry of patients with PPF.

Blood pressure effects of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists: Mechanisms, trial evidence and Real‐world data

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists modestly lower blood pressure across diverse patient populations, including those without diabetes. These effects appear largely independent of glycaemic control and offer additive value in high‐risk patients with overlapping comorbidities.

Angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 deficiency accelerates and angiotensin 1‐7 restores age‐related muscle weakness in mice

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2018
Background A pharmacologic strategy for age‐related muscle weakness is desired to improve mortality and disability in the elderly. Angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) cleaves angiotensin II into angiotensin 1‐7, a peptide known to protect against ...

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Standardization of measurement and reporting of medication adherence using the TEN‐SPIDERS tool for claims data

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first open‐source tool to implement the complete TEN‐SPIDERS framework in linked datasets for the determination of the PDC for medication adherence. The TEN‐SPIDERS tool enables transparent, reproducible medication adherence research through automated reporting of all calculation parameters and flexible customization options ...

Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 and its potential protective effect upon heart

Archives of Medicine and Health Sciences, 2018
To circumvent the major threats of low blood volume and low blood pressure, animals need powerful mechanisms for salt and water conservation, which is renin–angiotensin system (RAS).

Cardiovascular and neuropsychiatric outcomes with PCSK9 inhibitors in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: A retrospective cohort study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Study design and main findings. After 1:1 propensity score matching, 60 885 PCSK9 inhibitor users and 60 885 statin‐only users with ASCVD were compared. Kaplan–Meier curves show 12‐month cumulative event‐free survival for MACE, psychiatric disease, and neurodegenerative disease.

Role of Nonclassical Renin-angiotensin system Axis In Renal Fibrosis

Frontiers in Physiology, 2015
The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) is a major regulator of renal fibrosis. Besides the classical renin/Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)/angiotensin II (Ang II)/AT1 and AT2 axis, multiple new axes have been recently described.
