Angiotensin II type 2 receptor–interacting protein 3a inhibits ovarian carcinoma metastasis via the extracellular HMGA2-mediated ERK/EMT pathway

Tumor Biology, 2017
Local migration and long-distance metastasis is the main reason for higher mortality of ovarian cancer. Microtubule-associated tumor suppressor 1/angiotensin II type 2 receptor–interacting protein is associated with tumor initiation and progression and ...

Beneficial Effect of Mas Receptor Deficiency on Vascular Cognitive Impairment in the Presence of Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptor

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
BackgroundThe classical renin‐angiotensin system is known as the angiotensin (Ang)‐converting enzyme/Ang II/Ang type 1 receptor axis, which induces various organ damage including cognitive decline.

Immunohistochemical expression of intrarenal renin angiotensin system components in response to tempol in rats fed a high salt diet [PDF]

, 2017
AIM:To determine the effect of tempol in normal rats fed high salt on arterial pressure and the balance between antagonist components of the renal renin-angiotensin system.METHODS:Sprague-Dawley rats were fed with 8% NaCl high-salt (HS) or 0.4% NaCl ...

Angiotensin Type 2 Receptors: Painful, or Not? [PDF]

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Pain in response to various types of acute injury can be a protective stimulus to prevent the organism from using the injured part and allow tissue repair and healing. On the other hand, neuropathic pain, defined as ‘pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system’, is a debilitating pathology.

Differential renal effects of candesartan at high-and ultra-high doses in diabetic mice: potential role of  ACE2/AT2R/Mas [PDF]

, 2016
High doses of Ang II receptor (AT1R) blockers (ARBs) are renoprotective in diabetes. Underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We evaluated whether high/ultra-high doses of candesartan (ARB) up-regulate angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)/Ang II type 2 ...

Hypotensive Response to Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptor Stimulation in the Rostral Ventrolateral Medulla Requires Functional GABA-A Receptors

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Objectives: Angiotensin II, glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) interact within the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) and the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) modulating the central regulation of blood pressure and sympathetic tone.

Angiotensin II blockade and aortic-root dilation in Marfan's syndrome [PDF]

, 2008
Background: Progressive enlargement of the aortic root, leading to dissection, is the main cause of premature death in patients with Marfan's syndrome. Recent data from mouse models of Marfan's syndrome suggest that aortic-root enlargement is caused by ...

Inhibition of (pro)renin Receptor Contributes to Renoprotective Effects of Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blockade in Diabetic Nephropathy

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Aims: Renal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays a pivotal role in the development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Angiotensin II (Ang II) type 1 receptor (AT1R) blockade elevates (pro)renin, which may bind to (pro)renin receptor (PRR) and exert receptor ...
