Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibition (ARNI) in Heart Failure
International Journal of Heart Failure, 2020 Recognition that neurohormonal activation plays a central role in the pathogenesis of heart failure (HF) led to the development of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), angiotensin receptor blockers, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and

Des-Aspartate-Angiotensin I Attenuates Mortality of Mice Exposed to Gamma Radiation via a Novel Mechanism of Action. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 ACE inhibitors and ARBs (angiotensin receptor blockers) have been shown to attenuate radiation injuries in animal models of lethal gamma irradiation. These two classes of drug act by curtailing the actions of angiotensin II-linked inflammatory pathways ...

ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers and endothelial injury in COVID‐19
Journal of Internal Medicine, 2020 COVID‐19 is caused by the coronavirus SARS‐CoV‐2, which uses angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (ACE‐2) as a receptor for cellular entry. It is theorized that ACE inhibitors (ACE‐Is) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) may increase vulnerability to SARS‐

Synthetic nanobodies as angiotensin receptor blockers
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance The G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family is responsible for regulating much of human physiology, and GPCRs have become the most successful target class for drug development.

Influence of angiotensin II receptor blocker combination tablet prescription on drug number and cost
SAGE Open Medicine, 2014 Objectives: Combination therapy using an angiotensin II receptor blocker is expected to promote medication adherence and alleviate economic burden among patients by reducing the number of drugs taken, and thereby to lower associated medical costs. In the
