Endothelial Cell‐Specific Prolyl Hydroxylase‐2 Deficiency Augments Angiotensin II–Induced Arterial Stiffness and Cardiac Pericyte Recruitment in Mice

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Endothelial prolyl hydroxylase‐2 (PHD2) is essential for pulmonary remodeling and hypertension. In the present study, we investigated the role of endothelial PHD2 in angiotensin II–mediated arterial stiffness, pericyte recruitment, and cardiac

Antihypertensive effects of angiotensin-(1-7)

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998
Accumulating evidence suggests that angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)) is an important component of the renin-angiotensin system and that the actions of the peptide may either contribute to or oppose those of Ang II.

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.
