Candesartan inhibits inflammation through an angiotensin II type 1 receptor independent way in human embryonic kidney epithelial cells

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2019
: Besides stimulating vasoconstriction, Angiotensin II is also well known in inducing reactive oxygen species and promoting inflammatory phenotype switch via its type 1 receptor.

Effects of Circulating and Local Uteroplacental Angiotensin II in Rat Pregnancy. [PDF]

, 2010
The renin-angiotensin (Ang) system is important during placental development. Dysregulation of the renin-Ang system is important in preeclampsia (PE). Female rats transgenic for the human angiotensinogen gene crossed with males transgenic for the human ...

An Engineered HR1‐Stem Helix‐HR2 Trimeric Platform for Developing Broad‐Spectrum Coronavirus Vaccines

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sun et al. report a self‐assembling trimeric subunit vaccine platform termed RHS, which integrates the JN.1 receptor‐binding domain (RBD) with the heptad repeat 1 (HR1), stem helix (SH), and heptad repeat 2 (HR2) regions. The SARS‐CoV‐2 RHS vaccine elicits variant‐reactive RBD‐specific antibodies and cross‐reactive SH‐specific antibodies against ...

Spatiotemporal Multi‐Omic Mapping Reveals Liver‐Muscle Metabolic Crosstalk in Cancer Cachexia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The interactive CCAtlas platform delineates cross‐species, spatiotemporal, and sex‐specific molecular dynamics and metabolic rewiring across organs during cancer cachexia. Hepatic Gamt downregulation curtails hepatic creatine synthesis to trigger systemic creatine insufficiency and consequent skeletal muscle atrophy in LLC tumour‐bearing mice ...

Suppression of Experimental Autoimmune Uveitis by Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blocker Telmisartan

Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2009
Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1-R) blockers are used widely for the treatment of patients with hypertension. Recent reports have suggested that AT1-R also plays a key role in various inflammatory conditions. The aim of this study was to examine whether blockade of AT1-R is effective in the suppression of murine experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis

Leveraging Microphysiological Systems to Facilitate Neutrophil‐Based Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microphysiological systems are emerging as powerful human‐relevant platforms for studying neutrophil biology in cancer. Current applications of spheroids, organoids, and organ‐on‐a‐chip models are reviewed, together with future opportunities in behaviorome profiling, multi‐omics integration, personalized medicine, immune crosstalk, and multi‐organ ...

Angiotensin II receptor blocker attenuates intrarenal renin-angiotensin-system and podocyte injury in rats with myocardial infarction. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The mechanisms and mediators underlying common renal impairment after myocardial infarction (MI) are still poorly understood. The present study aimed to test the hypothesis that angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers (ARBs) provides renoprotective ...

Differences Among Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blockers: Characteristics of Candesartan Cilexetil

Blood Pressure, 2000
Several angiotensin II type 1 (AT 1 ) receptor blockers are now available for the treatment of hypertension. Although the agents in this class all act by blocking the AT 1 -receptor, they differ in their pharmacokinetics and binding characteristics. One of the newest AT 1 -receptor blockers, candesartan cilexetil, is administered in an inactive form ...

Effects of angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker on bones in mice with type 1 diabetes induced by streptozotocin [PDF]

Journal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2014
Introduction: This study was performed to address the pathological roles of the skeletal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in type 1 diabetes-induced osteoporosis and the effects of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker losartan on bones in diabetic mice.
