Angiotensin II impairs endothelial function via tyrosine phosphorylation of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase [PDF]

, 2009
Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (PYK2) can be activated by angiotensin II (Ang II) and reactive oxygen species. We report that in endothelial cells, Ang II enhances the tyrosine phosphorylation of endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) in an AT1-, H2O2-, and PYK2-

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 ...

Analysis of the Vasorelaxant Action of Angiotensin II in the Isolated Rat Renal Artery

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
Taking into consideration that mechanisms involved in the vasodilatator actions of angiotensin II have not yet been completely elucidated, the present study was undertaken in order to examine the mechanisms underlying the angiotensin II–induced ...

Role of Angiotensin Receptor Type I and Type II in the Development of Common Cardiac Problems

Journal of the Practice of Cardiovascular Sciences
The renin–angiotensin system is crucial for maintaining blood pressure and fluid balance. Central to this system are the angiotensin receptors, type I (AT1R) and type II (AT2R), which mediate the effects of angiotensin II (Ang-II).

Pathological Role of Angiotensin II in Severe COVID-19

TH Open, 2020
The activated renin–angiotensin system induces a prothrombotic state resulting from the imbalance between coagulation and fibrinolysis. Angiotensin II is the central effector molecule of the activated renin–angiotensin system and is degraded by the ...
