Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System Blockers and the Risk of Covid-19

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2020
Background A potential association between the use of angiotensin-receptor blockers (ARBs) and angiotensin-converting–enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and the risk of coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) has not been well studied.

Controversies of renin–angiotensin system inhibition during the COVID-19 pandemic

open access: yesNature Reviews Nephrology, 2020
The current COVID-19 pandemic is associated with unprecedented morbidity and mortality. Early reports suggested an association between disease severity and hypertension but did not account for sources of confounding. However, the responsible virus — SARS-

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 ...

Alamandine and Its Receptor MrgD Pair Up to Join the Protective Arm of the Renin-Angiotensin System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Only a few years ago, alamandine was found to be a member of the protective arm of the renin-angiotensin system. It turned out to be an endogenous ligand of the G protein-coupled receptor MrgD.

Is There an Association Between COVID-19 Mortality and the Renin-Angiotensin System? A Call for Epidemiologic Investigations

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2020
Mortality from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and hypertension. These disorders share underlying pathophysiology related to the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) that may be clinically ...

The Renin-Angiotensin System Modulates Inflammatory Processes in Atherosclerosis: Evidence from Basic Research and Clinical Studies

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2009
Recent evidence shows that the renin-angiotensin system is a crucial player in atherosclerotic processes. The regulation of arterial blood pressure was considered from its first description of the main mechanism involved.

Downregulation of ACE2 induces overstimulation of the renin–angiotensin system in COVID-19: should we block the renin–angiotensin system?

open access: yesHypertension Research, 2020
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is the cause of the ongoing coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic. Mortality is mainly due to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) [1].
