Angiotensin type 2 receptor actions contribute to angiotensin type 1 receptor blocker effects on kidney fibrosis

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2010
Angiotensin type 1 (AT1) receptor blocker (ARB) ameliorates progression of chronic kidney disease. Whether this protection is due solely to blockade of AT1, or whether diversion of angiotensin II from the AT1to the available AT2receptor, thus potentially enhancing AT2receptor effects, is not known.

Ontogeny of angiotensin type 2 and type 1 receptor expression in mice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2012
In the current experiment, we determined angiotensin type 2 receptor (AT2R) and angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT1R) protein expression by western blot analysis in developing normal mice. The results indicate that: (1) in all detected brain regions and in the spinal cord, adult mice exhibited significantly higher AT2R expression and lower AT1R expression

The angiotensin II type 2 (AT2) receptor: an enigmatic seven transmembrane receptor

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2009
Angiotensin II (AngII) interacts with two receptor subtypes, AT1 and AT2, belonging to the seven transmembrane receptor superfamily. Pharmacological investigations initially suggested that AT2 receptors antagonize AT1 effects. Data from AT2 receptor transgenic and knock-out mice have not been entirely consistent with this interpretation.

Angiotensin Type 2 Receptor in Resistance Arteries of Type 2 Diabetic Hypertensive Patients [PDF]

open access: yesHypertension, 2007
The role of angiotensin type 2 receptor (AT 2 R) on vascular responses to angiotensin II in humans remains unclear. In this study we explored whether AT 2 R is expressed and functionally active on peripheral resistance arteries of hypertensive diabetic ...

The 9+ month marathon: How pregnancy may have shaped human endurance capacities

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Anthropology has long considered the evolution of our uniquely human endurance capacities to be the result of selection upon anatomical and physiological features imposed by the demands of thermoregulation and resource acquisition, particularly during the demands of persistence hunting. Research has focused on the anatomical changes present in

Cytokine Pathways Driving Diverse Tissue Pathologies in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex systemic disorder characterized primarily by articular inflammation and destruction with associated functional loss and reduced quality of life. RA is also associated with extra‐articular disease, such as that of the lung, with potentially devastating clinical consequences. The critical importance of comorbidities,

Effect of Irbesartan on Chemerin in the Renal Tissues of Diabetic Rats

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2015
Background/Aims: Chemerin was introduced as a novel adipokine that plays a crucial role in insulin signaling and diabetic nephropathy. Serum chemerin levels are significantly elevated in type 2 diabetes patients with macroalbuminuria.
