Mild hypothermia alleviates post-resuscitation cerebral injury in rats via modulating the balance of the renin–angiotensin system [PDF]
Cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation represent a major cause of mortality. Cerebral ischemia–reperfusion injury following Cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation leads to severe neurological deficits and significantly worsens patient

Physiopathology of the Brain Renin-Angiotensin System [PDF]
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has evolved from being considered solely a peripheral endocrine system for cardiovascular control to being recognized as a complex molecular network with important functions in the central nervous system (CNS) and ...

APOL1 Modulates Renin–Angiotensin System [PDF]
Patients carrying APOL1 risk alleles (G1 and G2) have a higher risk of developing Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS); we hypothesized that escalated levels of miR193a contribute to kidney injury by activating renin–angiotensin system (RAS) in the ...

Renin-Angiotensin System Inhibition in Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease.
BACKGROUND Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors - including angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin-receptor blockers (ARBs) - slow the progression of mild or moderate chronic kidney disease.

Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2: SARS-CoV-2 Receptor and Regulator of the Renin-Angiotensin System
ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2) has a multiplicity of physiological roles that revolve around its trivalent function: a negative regulator of the renin-angiotensin system, facilitator of amino acid transport, and the severe acute respiratory ...

The renin-angiotensin system biomolecular cascade: a 2022 update of newer insights and concepts.
A large body of evidence implicates the renin-angiotensin system in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. However, not everyone understands that the magnitude of the risk reduction achieved in clinical trials with angiotensin-converting enzyme ...
