Angiogenesis "in vitro" of the healthy mouse heart under hypoxia : the role of Angiotensin II and Nitric Oxide [PDF]
Angiogenesis is the process by which blood microvessels are formed from existing ones. Angiogenesis is required for development. It is also important for reducing myocardial hypoxia due to coronary and ischemic heart disease; in myocardial infarction ...

Angiotensin Type 1 Receptor Blockers in Heart Failure
Homeostasis in the cardiovascular system is maintained by physiological functions of the Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS). In pathophysiological conditions, over activation of RAAS leads to an increase in the concentration of Angiotensin II (AngII) and over activation of Angiotensin Type 1 Receptor (AT1R), resulting in vasoconstriction ...

Transgenic amplification of glucocorticoid action in adipose tissue causes high blood pressure in mice [PDF]
Obesity is closely associated with the metabolic syndrome, a combination of disorders including insulin resistance, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and hypertension.

Type 1 angiotensin II receptors in human endometrium [PDF]
From evidence based on the use of specific receptor subtype antagonists, it has generally been assumed that human uterine tissue contains only type 2 (AT2) angiotensin II (AII) receptor subtype. Using a monoclonal antibody, 6313/G2, directed against a specific sequence in the extracellular domain of the type 1 AII receptor (AT1), in immunocytochemical ...

Effects of telmisartan and ramipril on adiponectin and blood pressure in patients with type 2 diabetes [PDF]
<b>Background:</b> Adiponectin is secreted by adipose tissue and may play a role in cardiovascular disease. We examined adiponectin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes who participated in the Telmisartan vs.

Cytokine Profiles Associated With Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Antibodies
Introduction: Angiotensin II type 1 receptor antibody (AT1R-Ab), is a non–human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibody implicated in poor renal allograft outcomes, although its actions may be mediated through a different pathway than HLA donor-specific ...

Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Autoantibodies in Primary Aldosteronism [PDF]
AbstractPrimary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common form of endocrine hypertension. Agonistic autoantibodies against the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R-Abs) have been described in transplantation medicine and women with pre-eclampsia and more recently in patients with PA.

Enhancement of Adipocyte Browning by Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blockade. [PDF]
Browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) has been highlighted as a new possible therapeutic target for obesity, diabetes and lipid metabolic disorders, because WAT browning could increase energy expenditure and reduce adiposity.

Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Autoantibodies in Postural Tachycardia Syndrome
BackgroundBoth the adrenergic and renin‐angiotensin systems contribute to orthostatic circulatory homeostasis, which is impaired in postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS).
