Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Atlases of Camels and Cattle Unravel Molecular Evolution of Digestive and Metabolic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We generated multi‐tissue single‐cell transcriptomic atlases of camels and cattle, uncovering conserved and lineage‐specific cellular features across digestive and metabolic systems. Cross‐species comparisons revealed the evolutionary origin of the camel glandular sac and identified novel cell populations linked to physiological specialization ...

Novel Antihypertensive Medications to Target the Renin-Angiotensin System: Mechanisms and Research

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
An estimated 1.28 billion individuals in the global population suffer from hypertension. Importantly, uncontrolled hypertension is strongly linked to various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Effects of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonists in rats with heart failure. Role of kinins and angiotensin II type 2 receptors.

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1997
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) improve cardiac function and remodeling and prolong survival in patients with heart failure (HF). Blockade of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) with an angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist (AT1-ant ...

Multimodal AI‐Driven Identification of Dehydrocostus Lactone as a Potent Renal Fibrosis Attenuator Targeting IQGAP1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Renal fibrosis, a hallmark of CKD, lacks effective treatments. Herein, we developed a multimodal AI model (TCM‐SPred) to identify anti‐fibrotic agents and found that dehydrocostus lactone (DCL) targets IQGAP1 to inhibit Wnt signaling, blocking the interaction between IQGAP1 and CCT3, demonstrating potent anti‐fibrotic activity in vitro and in vivo ...

TRIM40 Drives Pathological Cardiac Hypertrophy and Heart Failure via Ubiquitination of PKN2

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the E3 ligase TRIM40 as a key driver of pathological cardiac hypertrophy. TRIM40 binds PKN2 via its B‐box domain and, through its C29‐dependent catalytic activity, mediates K63‐linked ubiquitination of PKN2. This modification enhances PKN2 phosphorylation at Ser815, thereby driving hypertrophy.

Advances in the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System: Relevance to Diabetic Nephropathy

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2008
Hypertension is now recognized as a key contributory factor to the development and progression of kidney disease in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The renin angiotensin system (RAS) and its effector molecule angiotensin II, in particular, have a range ...

[Losartan: angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist].

open access: yesWiadomosci lekarskie (Warsaw, Poland : 1960), 1999
The angiotensin II (A II) type 1 receptor (AT1) antagonists represent a new pharmacologic class of drugs. These drugs antagonize A II induced biologic actions. Initial clinical trials suggest that these drugs are effective in the treatment of essential hypertension and hypertensive patients with renal disease.

Impact of Renin‐Angiotensin System Inhibitors on Renal Function During Temporary Ileostomy Period in Rectal Cancer Patients: A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study explored the potential impact of renin–angiotensin system inhibitors (RASIs) on renal function during the ileostomy period in patients undergoing rectal cancer surgery. RASI use was associated with early postoperative renal impairment, and relatively slow recovery of renal function was observed until stoma closure.

miR-155 suppresses angiotensin II type 1 receptor synthesis during placental morphogenesis

open access: yesCell Death Discovery
Several microRNAs play vital roles in placental development. miR-155 has been implicated in placental development and can directly interact with a variety of targets, including angiotensin type II receptor 1 (AT1R) (Agtr1) mRNA.
