Low Dose Chronic Angiotensin II Induces Selective Senescence of Kidney Endothelial Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Angiotensin II can cause oxidative stress and increased blood pressure that result in long term cardiovascular pathologies. Here we evaluated the contribution of cellular senescence to the effect of chronic exposure to low dose angiotensin II in a model ...

On the Origin of Urinary Angiotensin II [PDF]

open access: yesHypertension, 2010
To the Editor: With great interest we read the publication by Shao et al,1 who propose that angiotensin (Ang) II type 1 (AT1) receptor stimulation in the kidney results in urinary Ang II excretion. The authors have used an elegant approach, infusing rats with Val5-Ang II to allow a clear distinction from endogenous Ile5-Ang II, here denoted as Ang II.

Bioengineering Strategies for Treating Neointimal Hyperplasia in Peripheral Vasculature: Innovations and Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.
This review highlights emerging bioengineering strategies for treating neointimal hyperplasia in the peripheral vasculature, focusing on approaches that promote re‐endothelialization, modulate smooth muscle cell phenotype, reduce inflammation, mitigate oxidative stress, and optimize biomechanical compliance.

Angiotensin II treatment is associated with improved oxygenation in ARDS patients with refractory vasodilatory shock

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2023
Background The physiological effects of renin-angiotensin system modulation in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remain controversial and have not been investigated in randomized trials. We sought to determine whether angiotensin-II treatment is

Angiotensin-neprilysin inhibition versus enalapril in heart failure.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2014
BACKGROUND We compared the angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor LCZ696 with enalapril in patients who had heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction. In previous studies, enalapril improved survival in such patients.

Hypertension regulating angiotensin peptides in the pathobiology of cardiovascular disease

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2018
Renin angiotensin system (RAS) is an endogenous hormone system involved in the control of blood pressure and fluid volume. Dysregulation of RAS has a pathological role in causing cardiovascular diseases through hypertension.

Modulation of angiotensin II signaling in the prevention of fibrosis

open access: yesFibrogenesis & Tissue Repair, 2015
Over the last decade, it has become clear that the role of angiotensin II extends far beyond recognized renal and cardiovascular effects. The presence of an autologous renin-angiotensin system has been demonstrated in almost all tissues of the body.

Angiotensin II antagonists

open access: yesRevista Cubana de Cardiología y Cirugía Cardiovascular, 2014
The angiotensin II antagonists, a new group of drugs, block in a selective way AT receptors, causing vasodilatation, increase of renin and of angiotensin II, reduction of peripheral resistance, of the aldosterone levels, and of blood pressure without ...
