Zebrafish Model to Study Angiotensin II-Mediated Pathophysiology
Biology, 2021 Hypertension, a common chronic condition, may damage multiple organs, including the kidney, heart, and brain. Thus, it is essential to understand the pathology upon ectopic activation of the molecular pathways involved in mammalian hypertension to ...

Role of angiotensin II in aging
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022 Aging is an inevitable progressive decline in physiological organ function that increases the chance of disease and death. The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) is involved in the regulation of vasoconstriction, fluid homeostasis, cell growth, fibrosis, inflammation, and oxidative stress. In recent years, unprecedented advancement has been made in the RAS

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The optimal treatment for neurosarcoidosis myelitis is uncertain. We characterize incident neurosarcoidosis myelitis and assess treatment response by MRI and clinical scales. Methods Incident probable or definite neurosarcoidosis myelitis in adults was retrospectively identified from 13 academic medical centers.

Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have metabolic disruption, which can contribute to adverse long‐term outcomes, for multiple reasons. Patients with RA appear to have a higher risk of sarcopenia, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Systemic inflammation in RA can cause a “lipid paradox,” with reduced low‐

Angiotensin-neprilysin inhibition versus enalapril in heart failure.
New 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.

Hydroxychloroquine Associated with Lower Glomerular Filtration Rate Decline in Lupus Nephritis
Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.Background Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) protects kidney function in lupus nephritis (LN) by preventing flares, yet some cohort studies show no significant benefit in kidney function with HCQ. Clarifying these conflicting findings by showing early and long‐term benefits of HCQ on kidney function preservation is critical. Therefore, we analyzed data from our

Hypertension regulating angiotensin peptides in the pathobiology of cardiovascular disease
Clinical 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
Fibrogenesis & 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.
