Angiotensin II and Cardiovascular Disease: Balancing Pathogenic and Protective Pathways [PDF]
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 ...

Upregulation of NADH/NADPH oxidase 4 by angiotensin II induces podocyte apoptosis [PDF]
Kidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2023 Background Angiotensin II induces glomerular and podocyte injury via systemic and local vasoconstrictive or non-hemodynamic effects including oxidative stress. The release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from podocytes may participate in the development

Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) - the major receptor for SARS-CoV-2 virus [PDF]
Farmacja Polska, 2021 The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAS) plays a significant role in the regulation of the water and electrolyte balance. Renin from the kidneys converts angiotensinogen to angiotensin I. Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) catalyzes the conversion

The radioimmunoassay of angiotensin II [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1969 Abstract Specific antibody against free angiotensin II has been raised in high titre by immunizing rabbits with angiotensin II amide (‘Hypertensin’, Ciba) adsorbed on to micro-particles of carbon. The material was injected either parenterally or directly into lymph nodes and spleen.
