Regulation of the renal proximal tubule second sodium pump by angiotensins
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2001 For several years it was believed that angiotensin II (Ang II) alone mediated the effects of the renin-angiotensin system. However, it has been observed that other peptides of this system, such as angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)), present biological ...

Vasopressin: a possible link between hypoxia and hypertension
Exploration 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.

The renin-angiotensin system in the hypertensive kidney:clinical studies in patients with essential hypertension, fibromuscular dysplasia, and the atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis [PDF]
, 2016 The renin-angiotensin system is one of the most important systems for regulating blood pressure. Various signal compounds (angiotensins) play a crucial role in this system.
