Vasopressin: a possible link between hypoxia and hypertension

open access: yesExploration of Medicine, 2022
Cardiovascular and respiratory diseases are frequently associated with transient and prolonged hypoxia, whereas hypoxia exerts pro-hypertensive effects, through stimulation of the sympathetic system and release of pressor endocrine factors.

Angiotensins and Huntington’s Disease: A Study on Immortalized Progenitor Striatal Cell Lines

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2017
Neurons from mouse models of Huntington’s disease (HD) exhibit altered electrophysiological properties, potentially contributing to neuronal dysfunction and neurodegeneration.

Inappropriate activation of the renin-angiotensin system improves cardiac tolerance to ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats with late angiotensin II-dependent hypertension

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
The aim of the study was to clarify the role of the interplay between hypertension and the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury.

The impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with cystic fibrosis undergoing CFTR channel modulators treatment: a literature review

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2023
Several risk factors for Coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19) disease have been highlighted in clinical evidence. Among the various risk factors are advanced age, metabolic illness such as diabetes, heart disease, and diseases of the respiratory system.

Circulating renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system activity in cats with systemic hypertension or cardiomyopathy

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2022
Background Activity of the circulating renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system (RAAS) has not been comprehensively characterized in cats with systemic hypertension (SH) or cardiomyopathy (CM), and the effects of furosemide or amlodipine treatment on the ...

Metabolism of angiotensins by head membranes of the leech Theromyzon tessulatum

open access: yes, 1996
Angiotensins (angiotensin I, angiotensin II, angiotensin II-amide) have been isolated in leeches and such peptides are involved in diuresis in these animals.

Cardiac renin and angiotensins: uptake from plasma versus in situ synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The existence of a cardiac renin-angiotensin system, independent of the circulating renin-angiotensin system, is still controversial. We compared the tissue levels of renin-angiotensin system components in the heart with the levels in blood plasma in ...
