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.

Angiotensin II type 2 receptor–interacting protein 3a inhibits ovarian carcinoma metastasis via the extracellular HMGA2-mediated ERK/EMT pathway

Tumor Biology, 2017
Local migration and long-distance metastasis is the main reason for higher mortality of ovarian cancer. Microtubule-associated tumor suppressor 1/angiotensin II type 2 receptor–interacting protein is associated with tumor initiation and progression and ...

Angiotensin Receptor Blocker (ARB): Is it Effective to Prevent Cerebral Malaria? [PDF]

Afro-Egyptian Journal of Infectious and Endemic Diseases
Cerebral malaria is a severe complication of plasmodium falciparum infection with 15-25% mortality rates. Sequestration of infected red blood cells disrupts the blood brain barried leading to irreversible brain damage, impacting quality of life.

Inhibition of (pro)renin Receptor Contributes to Renoprotective Effects of Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blockade in Diabetic Nephropathy

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Aims: Renal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays a pivotal role in the development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Angiotensin II (Ang II) type 1 receptor (AT1R) blockade elevates (pro)renin, which may bind to (pro)renin receptor (PRR) and exert receptor ...

Hypotensive Response to Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptor Stimulation in the Rostral Ventrolateral Medulla Requires Functional GABA-A Receptors

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Objectives: Angiotensin II, glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) interact within the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) and the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) modulating the central regulation of blood pressure and sympathetic tone.
