American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2020 Rationale: Exogenous angiotensin II increases mean arterial pressure in patients with catecholamine-resistant vasodilatory shock (CRVS). We hypothesized that renin concentrations may identify patients most likely to benefit from such therapy. Objectives:

European Journal of Heart Failure, 2020 The SARS‐CoV‐2 virus binds to the angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor for cell entry. It has been suggested that angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) and angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB), which are commonly used in patients ...

Oxidative DNA damage in kidneys and heart of hypertensive mice is prevented by blocking angiotensin II and aldosterone receptors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 INTRODUCTION: Recently, we could show that angiotensin II, the reactive peptide of the blood pressure-regulating renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system, causes the formation of reactive oxygen species and DNA damage in kidneys and hearts of hypertensive ...

Angiotensin II facilitates fibrogenic effect of TGF-β1 through enhancing the down-regulation of BAMBI caused by LPS: a new pro-fibrotic mechanism of angiotensin II. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Angiotensin II has progressively been considered to play an important role in the development of liver fibrosis, although the mechanism isn't fully understood.

Human Angiotensin II Receptors are Regulated By Angiotensin II
Clinical and Experimental Hypertension. Part A: Theory and Practice, 1988 Specific angiotensin II (ANG II) binding on human platelets in man was measured to examine ANG II receptor regulation in man. Eight normal volunteers received either a high, or a low sodium diet, or a low sodium diet together with the ANG I converting enzyme inhibitor enalapril.
