Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors: do they have a therapeutic potential in cardiac fibrosis? [PDF]
, 2017 Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that is characterized by a peculiar mechanism of action. In fact, S1P, which is produced inside the cell, can act as an intracellular mediator, whereas after its export outside the cell, it can act as ...

Angiotensin II receptor antagonists in hypertension [PDF]
Kidney International, 1998 Blockade of the renin-angiotensin system is now recognized as an effective approach to the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure. Today, it is possible to antagonize the effects of angiotensin II more specifically by blocking its receptors by using nonpeptide receptor antagonists.
