Second Trimester Amniotic Fluid Angiotensinogen Levels Linked to Increased Fetal Birth Weight and Shorter Gestational Age in Term Pregnancies

Life
Background: Despite the considerable progress made in recent years in fetal assessment, the etiology of fetal growth disturbances is not as yet well understood.

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Related-Polymorphisms on Inflammation, Muscle and Myocardial Damage After a Marathon Race

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019
Muscle damage is one of the most important factors that affect muscle fatigue during endurance exercise. Recent evidence suggests that the renin–angiotensin system impacts on skeletal muscle wasting.

Computational modelling of cardiac fibroblast signalling reveals a key role for Ca2+ in driving atrial fibrillation‐associated fibrosis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A pre‐existing fibroblast signalling model was enhanced by integrating atrial‐specific components and reactions linked to atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF). The analysis highlights the central role of Ca2⁺ signalling in driving profibrotic responses to AF‐relevant stimuli, angiotensin‐II and transforming growth factor ...

Progress in Synthesis and Pharmacology of Telmisartan

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
Telmisartan is a benzimidazole derivative and a well‐known drug to treat hypertension. This review provides synthesis and understanding of telmisartan as an antihypertensive drug through two mechanisms of actions: RAAS inhibitor and PPARγ receptor. Effective repurposing of this drug for various diseases like chronic kidney illness, diabetes, fatty ...

Angiotensinogen is secreted by pure rat neuronal cell cultures

, 1992
Previous studies are divided between those which support a neuroglial (astrocyte) source for brain angiotensinogen and those which indicate that both astrocytes and neurones synthesize the precursor of angiotensin II.

The Landscape of Biomarkers in ICU‐Associated AKI: From Protein Markers to Cell‐Free Nucleic Acids

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 17, September 2026.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill patients—particularly in sepsis—often develops early and is missed by creatinine/urine output–based criteria, delaying risk stratification and timely intervention. This review synthesizes current evidence on established and emerging AKI biomarkers (e.g., NGAL, KIM‐1, [TIMP‐2]·[IGFBP7]) alongside circulating ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Food Bioactive Constituents in the Management of Obesity and Hypertension: A Critical Review

Phytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Obesity and hypertension co‐exist and share molecular mechanisms in terms of dietary therapy, modulated by food bioactive constituents. ABSTRACT Obesity and hypertension are among the most pressing global public health challenges. They frequently co‐exist, with obesity‐related hypertension accounting for an estimated 75% of the hypertension burden ...
