The vascular renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system [PDF]
, 2001 PhDThe renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is one of the major regulators of blood pressure. The actions and generation of RAAS components at the tissue level are less well appreciated.

Adenoviral delivery of angiotensin-(1-7) or angiotensin-(1-9) inhibits cardiomyocyte hypertrophy via the mas or angiotensin Type 2 receptor [PDF]
, 2012 The counter-regulatory axis of the renin angiotensin system peptide angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] has been identified as a potential therapeutic target in cardiac remodelling, acting via the mas receptor.

Enhancement of Adipocyte Browning by Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blockade. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) has been highlighted as a new possible therapeutic target for obesity, diabetes and lipid metabolic disorders, because WAT browning could increase energy expenditure and reduce adiposity.
