Diminazene Aceturate Reduces Angiotensin II Constriction and Interacts with the Spike Protein of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Diminazene aceturate (DIZE) is a putative angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) activator and angiotensin type 1 receptor antagonist (AT1R). Its simple chemical structure possesses a negatively charged triazene segment that is homologous to the ...

Angiotensin Type 1 Receptor Blockers in Heart Failure.

open access: yesCurrent Drug Targets, 2020
Homeostasis in the cardiovascular system is maintained by physiological functions of the Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS). In pathophysiological conditions, over activation of RAAS leads to an increase in the concentration of Angiotensin II ...

Angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers prevent aortic arterial stiffness in elderly patients with hypertension

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2019
Backgrounds and aims: Increased arterial stiffness may increase cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers (ARBs) are potentially useful in controlling the central blood pressure and arterial stiffness in mild to ...

Angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker inhibits arterial calcification in a pre-clinical model [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2010
Arterial calcification is a common complication of several disorders and is a strong predictor of mortality. The mechanism underlying arterial calcification is not fully understood and as such, no pharmaceutical therapies are currently available which impede its progression.

Factors associated with the progression of mesangial lesions in IgA nephropathy: A comparative analysis of renal re-biopsies

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
ObjectivesIgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common primary glomerular disease, and is the leading cause of chronic renal failure. Because mesangial lesions are the main pathological changes seen in IgAN, we investigated factors associated with the ...

Beneficial effects of the activation of the angiotensin-(1-7) MAS receptor in a murine model of adriamycin-induced nephropathy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] is a biologically active heptapeptide that may counterbalance the physiological actions of angiotensin II (Ang II) within the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). Here, we evaluated whether activation of the Mas receptor with the
