ACE2: Angiotensin II/Angiotensin-(1–7) Balance in Cardiac and Renal Injury

open access: yesCurrent Hypertension Reports, 2014
Our current recognition of the renin-angiotensin system is more convoluted than originally thought due to the discovery of multiple novel enzymes, peptides, and receptors inherent in this interactive biochemical cascade. Over the last decade, angiotensin-

Mass-spectrometric identification of a novel angiotensin peptide in human plasma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Objective— Angiotensin peptides play a central role in cardiovascular physiology and pathology. Among these peptides, angiotensin II (Ang II) has been investigated most intensively.

A Case Report of Angiotensin II Use in the Treatment of Refractory Shock due to Amlodipine and Lisinopril Toxicity. [PDF]

open access: yesCase Rep Crit Care
Conclusion: Despite evidence of efficacy in refractory vasodilatory shock secondary to sepsis, there is a paucity of data on the use of angiotensin II as an adjunctive vasopressor in drug-induced shock.

Colorectal Cancer Cells–Derived Exosomal PIK3CA Mutation DNA Promotes Tumor Metastasis by Activating Fibroblast and Affecting Tumor Metastatic Microenvironment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
PIK3CAH1047R DNA in colorectal cancer (CRC) cell‐derived exosomes can be delivered into recipient fibroblasts, where it is transcribed and translated, leading to the activation of fibroblasts into cancer‐associated fibroblasts, which secrete elevated levels of IL6. The simultaneous detection and targeting of PIK3CAH1047R mutation and IL6 may serve as a

Angiotensin II and Renal Tubular Ion Transport

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2005
Angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor, also participates in the regulation of renal sodium and water excretion, not only via a myriad of effects on renal hemodynamics, glomerular filtration rate, and regulation of aldosterone secretion, but also via ...

Angiotensin II has acute effects on TRPC6 channels in podocytes of freshly isolated glomeruli

open access: yesKidney International, 2014
A key role for podocytes in the pathogenesis of proteinuric renal diseases has been established. Angiotensin II causes depolarization and increased intracellular calcium concentration in podocytes; members of the cation TRPC channels family, particularly

CCDC80 Protects against Aortic Dissection and Rupture by Maintaining the Contractile Smooth Muscle Cell Phenotype

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Aortic dissection (AD) is accompanied by a decrease in CCDC80 in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). CCDC80 can interact with JAK2, and VSMC‐specific CCDC80 deficiency accelerates the progression of AD by activating the JAK2/STAT3 pathway involved in regulating the phenotype switching and function of VSMCs.

Beneficial Effect of Mas Receptor Deficiency on Vascular Cognitive Impairment in the Presence of Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptor

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
BackgroundThe classical renin‐angiotensin system is known as the angiotensin (Ang)‐converting enzyme/Ang II/Ang type 1 receptor axis, which induces various organ damage including cognitive decline.

Searching inhibitors for three important proteins of COVID-19 through molecular docking studies [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
The lack of recommended drugs or vaccines to deal with the COVID-19 is the main concern of this pandemic. The approved drugs for similar health problems, drugs under clinical trials, and molecules from medicinal plants extracts are investigated randomly to deal with the COVID-19 infection.
