Angiotensin II receptors and peritoneal dialysis-induced peritoneal fibrosis [PDF]
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2016 The vasoactive hormone angiotensin II initiates its major hemodynamic effects through interaction with AT1 receptors, a member of the class of G protein-coupled receptors. Acting through its AT1R, angiotensin II regulates blood pressure and renal salt and water balance. Recent evidence points to additional pathological influences of activation of AT1R,
