Molecular Mechanisms of Kidney Injury and Repair in Arterial Hypertension [PDF]

, 2019
The global burden of chronic kidney disease is rising. The etiologies, heterogeneous, and arterial hypertension, are key factors contributing to the development and progression of chronic kidney disease. Arterial hypertension is induced and maintained by

Angiotensin II promotes the anticoagulant effects of rivaroxaban via angiotensin type 2 receptor signaling in mice

Scientific Reports, 2017
Rivaroxaban is an oral direct factor Xa inhibitor approved for the treatment of stroke and systemic thromboembolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Despite its efficacy, rivaroxaban therapy results in adverse effects and complications,

Local angiotensin II promotes adipogenic differentiation of human adipose tissue mesenchymal stem cells through type 2 angiotensin receptor

Stem Cell Research, 2017
Obesity is often associated with high systemic and local activity of renin-angiotensin system (RAS). Mesenchymal stem cells of adipose tissue are the main source of adipocytes.

Tumor‐Induced Splenic Remodeling: Mechanisms of Systemic Immunosuppression and Emerging Therapeutic Opportunities

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the transformative impact of cancer immunotherapies such as immune checkpoint blockade, durable clinical responses remain limited. Increasing evidence indicates that antitumor immunity is governed not only by the tumor microenvironment, but also by systemic immune regulation mediated by peripheral immune organs. Among these, the spleen

The Role of Extracellular Vesicles MicroRNAs in Sarcopenia: From Aging to Multi‐Morbidity

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Exosomes transporting miRNAs play a crucial bidirectional regulatory role in the process of sarcopenia, both in natural aging and under various pathological conditions. ABSTRACT Sarcopenia, defined as progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, occurs during aging and has also been recognized for its detrimental effects in various disease ...

Telmisartan reduces systemic inflammation and alters the renin-angiotensin system in mild COVID-19

Scientific Reports
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes COVID-19, a respiratory viral infection that disrupts renin angiotensin system (RAS) peptide metabolism by downregulating angiotensin converting enzyme-II (ACE2), leading to accumulation

Insulin mediated upregulation of the renin angiotensin system in human subcutaneous adipocytes is reduced by Rosiglitazone [PDF]

, 2005
Background: Obesity associated hypertension is likely to be due to multiple mechanisms. Identification of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) within adipose tissue does, however, suggest a potential causal role for it in obesity-associated hypertension ...

Interpretation of A Focus Shift From Sarcopenia to Muscle Health in the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2025 Consensus Update

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
The AWGS 2025 consensus shifts focus from diagnosing sarcopenia to promoting muscle health across the lifespan. It simplifies diagnosis to low muscle mass plus low strength, expands screening to middle‐aged adults, and integrates muscle health into the WHO ICOPE framework for early intervention and healthy aging.
