Oxidative DNA damage in kidneys and heart of hypertensive mice is prevented by blocking angiotensin II and aldosterone receptors. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Recently, we could show that angiotensin II, the reactive peptide of the blood pressure-regulating renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system, causes the formation of reactive oxygen species and DNA damage in kidneys and hearts of hypertensive ...

Modelling and docking of Indian SARS-CoV-2 spike protein 1 with ACE2: implications for co-morbidity and therapeutic intervention [PDF]
Presently, India bears amongst the highest burden of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension (HT), and cardio vascular disease (CVD) and thus represents a vulnerable target to the SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 pandemic. Involvement of the angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) in susceptibility to infection and pathogenesis by SARS-

A computational insight of the improved nicotine binding with ACE2-SARS-CoV-2 complex with its clinical impact [PDF]
Smokers being witnessed with the mild adverse clinical symptoms of SARS-CoV-2, the in-silico study is intended to explore the effect of nicotine binding to the soluble angiotensin converting enzyme II (ACE2) receptor with or without SARS-CoV-2 binding.

Angiotensin Receptors and Aging [PDF]
The major biological actions of the renin–angiotensin system are mediated by angiotensin (Ang) II, which binds with equal affinity to Ang type 1 (AT1) and type 2 (AT2) receptors. The majority of Ang II actions, however, are mediated by the AT1 receptor, including vasoconstriction, cellular proliferation, tissue growth, direct renal tubular sodium ...

Angiotensin Ii Receptor Blockers [PDF]
The ARBs have very similar clinical profiles. They do, however, have different pharmacokinetic profiles, which may lead to some differences in efficacy. The newer agents irbesartan, candesartan, telmisartan, and olmesartan have longer half-lives and durations of action than the older agents losartan and valsartan (5).

Role of Nonclassical Renin-angiotensin system Axis In Renal Fibrosis
The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) is a major regulator of renal fibrosis. Besides the classical renin/Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)/angiotensin II (Ang II)/AT1 and AT2 axis, multiple new axes have been recently described.

Review of COVID-19 Antibody Therapies [PDF]
Under the global health emergency caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), efficient and specific therapies are urgently needed. Compared with traditional small-molecular drugs, antibody therapies are relatively easy to develop and as specific as vaccines in targeting severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and thus attract ...
