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.

Advance in Research of Angiotensin II and Its Receptor and Malignant Tumor
Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2016 Angiotensin AngII, a linear small peptide,which is composed of eight amino acids, is the main effectors of renin-angiotensin systen (Renin-angiotensin system, RAS).

HYPERTENSION, 2019 The Ang II (Angiotensin II)-Angiotensin-(1-7) axis of the Renin Angiotensin System encompasses 3 enzymes that form Angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] directly from Ang II: ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2), PRCP (prolylcarboxypeptidase), and POP ...

Angiotensin II and Renal Fibrosis [PDF]
Hypertension, 2001 Abstract — — Angiotensin (Ang) II, the main peptide of the renin angiotensin system (RAS), is a renal growth factor, inducing hyperplasia/hypertrophy depending on the cell type. This vasoactive peptide activates mesangial and tubular cells and interstitial fibroblasts, increasing the ...

The hyperglycemia induced by angiotensin II in rats is mediated by AT1 receptors
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998 We have shown that the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is involved in glucose homeostasis during acute hemorrhage. Since almost all of the physiological actions described for angiotensin II were mediated by AT1 receptors, the present experiments were ...

Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 1993 Acute blockade of the renin-angiotensin system with the parenterally active angiotensin II antagonist saralasin has been shown to effectively lower blood pressure in a large fraction of patients with essential hypertension and to improve hemodynamics in some patients with congestive heart failure.
