Therapeutic potential of the renin angiotensin system in ischaemic stroke [PDF]
The renin angiotensin system (RAS) consists of the systemic hormone system, critically involved in regulation and homeostasis of normal physiological functions [i.e.

Understanding the Pathophysiology of COVID-19: Could the Contact System Be the Key?
To date the pathophysiology of COVID-19 remains unclear: this represents a factor determining the current lack of effective treatments. In this paper, we hypothesized a complex host response to SARS-CoV-2, with the Contact System (CS) playing a pivotal ...

Appropriate nomenclature: angiotensin II receptors
Radford published an interesting clinical case report of rural patients taking angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor antagonist – commonly also referred to as angiotensin receptor antagonists, AT1 receptor blockers, angiotensin receptor blockers or ARBs – who experienced a sudden loss of consciousness whilst exercising gently in the heat.

Membrán mikrodomének szerepe az angiotenzinreceptor működésében = The role of membrane microdomains in angiotensin receptor function [PDF]
Kísérleteink során biolumineszcencia rezonancia energiaenergiatranszfer (BRET) módszereket állítottunk be az AT1-es angiotenzinreceptor jelátviteli folyamata során a membrán mikrodoménekben létrejövő fehérje-fehérje kölcsönhatások nyomon követésére ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

A critical appraisal of the intrinsic pancreatic angiotensin-generating system [PDF]
The pancreas is a relative newcomer to the stable of tissues with an intrinsic angiotensin-generating system. The involvement of this system in pancreatic activity will be dependent on the angiotensin-generating paths present in the pancreas and their ...

A combinatorial approach of Proteomics and Systems Biology in unravelling the mechanisms of acute kidney injury (AKI): involvement of NMDA receptor GRIN1 in murine AKI [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent condition in hospitalised patients undergoing major surgery or the critically ill and is associated with increased mortality.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...
