Influence of angiotensin II receptor blocker combination tablet prescription on drug number and cost
SAGE Open Medicine, 2014 Objectives: Combination therapy using an angiotensin II receptor blocker is expected to promote medication adherence and alleviate economic burden among patients by reducing the number of drugs taken, and thereby to lower associated medical costs. In the

Circulation Research, 2003 Angiotensin II (Ang II) is an octapeptide hormone that plays a central role in cardiovascular homeostasis. Typical of many proteins, Ang II was named on the basis of its first-demonstrated biological function—the ability to act as a vasoactive agonist and induce contraction of blood vessels. Over the years, Ang II has been shown to play important roles

Angiotensin II regulation of skeletal muscle regeneration, growth and satellite cell function [PDF]
, 2010 Local renin-angiotensin systems (RASs) have been described in many mammalian tissues. However, the role of angiotensin II (Ang II) in skeletal muscle is poorly understood with initial reports suggesting it may function to regulate overload-induced ...

Effects of Maternal Undernutrition on Renal Angiotensin Ii and Chymase in Hypertensive Offspring
, 2009 Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) can program the future development of hypertension in adulthood. The renin- angiotensin system has been reported to play a role in IUGR- induced hypertension.

Expert Perspectives: Defining and Managing Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis
Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Systemic sclerosis–associated interstitial lung disease (SSc‐ILD) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in SSc, affecting up to three‐quarters of patients. The disease course is highly heterogeneous, ranging from indolent, nonprogressive forms to rapidly progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF).

The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system during haemodialysis with acetate or bicarbonate at different dialysate sodium concentrations [PDF]
, 1987 The hormones of the renin angiotensin aldosterone system were measured during regular haemodialysis with acetate or bicarbonate at dialysate sodium concentrations of 135, 140, 145, and 150 mmol/l.

DNA methylation analysis of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene in major depression. [PDF]
, 2012 The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) has been repeatedly discussed as susceptibility factor for major depression (MD) and the bi-directional relation between MD and cardiovascular disorders (CVD).
