Physiopathology of the Brain Renin-Angiotensin System [PDF]

open access: yesLife
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 ...

Network and 16S rRNA Sequencing-Combined Approach Provides Insightal Evidence of Vitamin K2 for Salt-Sensitive Hypertension

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2021
Vitamin K2 (VK2), found to act to treat hypertension, has been widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries nowadays. However, the potential targets and molecular mechanisms of VK2 for salt-sensitive hypertension have not been fully investigated.

Hepcidin is potential regulator for renin activity

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
An association between genetic variants in the genes HFE, HJV, BMP4 and arterial hypertension has been shown earlier. Proteins encoded by these genes participate in the signalling routes leading eventually to the production of the peptide hormone ...

New Approaches to Blockade of the Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System: Characteristics and Usefulness of the Direct Renin Inhibitor Aliskiren

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010
Since renin inhibition interferes with the first and rate-limiting steps in the renin–angiotensin system, the renin step is a very attractive target for lowering blood pressure and minimizing target-organ damage.

Juxtaglomerular apparatus hyperplasia under dual angiotensin blockade. A footprint of adequate RAS inhibition or a concern for renal fibrosis?

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2012
Background Dual renin-angiotensin system blockade with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers has been advocated to minimize proteinuria. However, recent trials have questioned the renal safety of this approach.

The renin–angiotensin system: a possible new target for depression

open access: yesBMC Medicine, 2017
Depression remains a debilitating condition with an uncertain aetiology. Recently, attention has been given to the renin–angiotensin system. In the central nervous system, angiotensin II may be important in multiple pathways related to neurodevelopment ...
