Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Spinal cord infarction (SCI) is a rare but devastating myelopathy, characterized by a high disability rate and an unfavorable prognosis. It has often been underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed as idiopathic transverse myelitis (ITM). This study aimed to describe the clinical features, radiological biomarkers, treatments, and functional ...

Insulin mediated upregulation of the renin angiotensin system in human subcutaneous adipocytes is reduced by Rosiglitazone [PDF]
, 2005 Background: Obesity associated hypertension is likely to be due to multiple mechanisms. Identification of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) within adipose tissue does, however, suggest a potential causal role for it in obesity-associated hypertension ...

A 73‐Year‐Old Man With Several Years of Difficulty Climbing Stairs and Frequent Tripping
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A 73‐year‐old man presented with progressive weakness and atrophy predominantly affecting the distal finger flexors and quadriceps muscles. Electrophysiological studies demonstrated mixed myogenic and neurogenic features. Muscle MRI showed inflammatory changes, and muscle biopsy revealed granulomatous myositis with histologic features ...

Angiotensin II and Cardiovascular Disease: Balancing Pathogenic and Protective Pathways
Current Issues in Molecular BiologyThe renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is a hormone system that controls blood pressure and fluid and electrolyte balance. Angiotensin II, a key effector, is produced from angiotensin I by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and exerts its ...

Uptake and metabolism of the novel peptide angiotensin-(1-12) by neonatal cardiac myocytes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Angiotensin-(1-12) [Ang-(1-12)] functions as an endogenous substrate for the productions of Ang II and Ang-(1-7) by a non-renin dependent mechanism. This study evaluated whether Ang-(1-12) is incorporated by neonatal cardiac myocytes and the enzymatic ...
