Estimate of the Upper Limit on Hot Plasma Differential Emission Measure (DEM) in Non-Flaring Active Regions and Nanoflare Frequency Based on the Mg XII Spectroheliograph Data from CORONAS-F/SPIRIT [PDF]
The nanoflare-heating theory predicts steady hot plasma emission in the non-flaring active regions. It is hard to find this emission with conventional non-monochromatic imagers (such as Atmospheric Imaging Assembly or X-Ray Telescope), because their images contain a cool temperature background.

Glucose, Insulin and Renin activity after sodium loading and depletion in Vipera aspis. [PDF]
Sodium, potassium, chloride, glucose, insulin and renin activity were investigated in fasted Vipera aspis subjected for 3 days to administration of 3% NaCl 5 ml, or injection of a diuretic and water loading to produce sodium depletion.

Prospective validation of an automated chemiluminescence-based assay of renin and aldosterone for the work-up of arterial hypertension [PDF]
Background:The availability of simple and accurate assays of plasma active renin (DRC) and aldosterone concentration (PAC) can improve the detection of secondary forms of arterial hypertension.

Clinical Determinants and Prognostic Implications of Renin and Aldosterone in Patients with Symptomatic Heart Failure [PDF]
Aims Activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system plays an important role in the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF) and has been associated with poor prognosis.

Effect of He Self-organized pattern plasma-activated media with different conductivity on cancer cells [PDF]
The self-organized pattern (SOP) phenomenon is prevalent in plasma, while knowledge about SOP discharge affecting reactive species generated plasma-activated media (PAM) for cancer therapy is poorly documented. The aim of this study focused on the effect of SOP discharge modes on reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS, RNS) in He SOP plasma ...

Role of protein kinase C in inhibition of renin release caused by vasoconstrictors [PDF]
It was the aim of the present study to get insight into some of the intracellular mechanisms by which the vasoconstrictor hormones angiotensin II (ANG II), arginine vasopressin (AVP), and norepinephrine (NE) inhibit renin release from renal ...

Hydrogen sulfide inhibits plasma renin activity.
The development of renovascular hypertension depends on the release of renin from the juxtaglomerular (JG) cells, a process regulated by intracellular cAMP.

Effect of Cyclooxygenase(COX)-1 and COX-2 inhibition on furosemide-induced renal responses and isoform immunolocalization in the healthy cat kidney [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The role of cyclooxygenase(COX)-1 and COX-2 in the saluretic and renin-angiotensin responses to loop diuretics in the cat is unknown. We propose in vivo characterisation of isoform roles in a furosemide model by administering non-steroidal ...

Acute activation of the calcium-sensing receptor inhibits plasma renin activity in vivo.
In vitro, the renin-secreting juxtaglomerular cells express the calcium-sensing receptor, and its activation with the calcimimetic cinacalcet inhibits renin release.
