Therapeutic targets in the brain for overactive bladder: A focus on angiotensin II type 1 receptor
Overactive bladder is a condition that affects both men and women, and significantly affects patients' quality of life. Anticholinergics, β3-adrenoceptor agonists, and botulinum toxin are currently being used for treatment.

ANGIOTENSIN II TYPE 1 RECEPTOR AUTOANTIBODIES
Objective:Primary aldosteronism (PA), the most common cause of endocrine hypertension, is a disorder due to bilateral adrenal hyperplasia (BAH) and aldosterone producing adenoma (APA), featuring concentrations of plasma aldosterone that are inappropriately high for the circulating renin levels ...

Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Gene Regulation [PDF]
Angiotensin II (Ang II), the major bioactive peptide of the renin–angiotensin system, was originally described as a potent vasoconstrictor. It is now recognized as a multifunctional hormone influencing many cellular processes, including cell growth, apoptosis, migration, inflammation, and fibrosis.1,2 Under pathological conditions, the vasoconstrictor,
