Interaction of renin–angiotensin system and adenosine monophosphate–activated protein kinase signaling pathway in renal carcinogenesis of uninephrectomized rats

Tumor Biology, 2017
Renin–angiotensin system and adenosine monophosphate–activated protein kinase signaling pathway both play important roles in carcinogenesis, but the interplay of renin–angiotensin system and adenosine monophosphate–activated protein kinase in ...

Roles and functions of Atp6ap2 in the brain

Neural Regeneration Research, 2018
The classical renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the body has been studied intensively in the last decades, since it is known that this system is involved in the regulation of blood pressure.

A Touch Enabled Hemodynamic and Metabolic Monitor

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a touch‐based hybrid platform for simultaneous monitoring of vital signs and sweat metabolites. With a simple tri‐finger touch of 4–6 min, users can concurrently get to know their glucose, uric acid, cortisol levels from fingertip sweat, along with blood pressure and heart rate.

Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System Mediated Regulation of BK Channels

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (BK channels) belong to a family of Ca2+-sensitive voltage-dependent potassium channels and play a vital role in various physiological activities in the human body.

Description of unilateral kidney embolism and contralateral nephrectomy as a less invasive remnant kidney model in cats; a proof‐of‐concept study

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Unilateral, minimally invasive, renal arterial embolization and delayed contralateral nephrectomy was described in cats as a novel remnant kidney model of chronic kidney disease using two doses of embolic particles. Renal function declined and characteristic histopathological markers of kidney disease were present 6 months after the embolism procedure.

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

Journal 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.

THE INFLUENCE OF TISSUE ANGIOTENSINS ON ELEMENTS OF THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM (LECTURE 2)

Байкальский медицинский журнал
Relevance. One of the main causes of death according to the World Health Organization is cardiovascular diseases. It is well known that dysregulation and/or overexpression of elements of the renin-angiotensin system leads to many negative vascular ...

Equivariant Filter Design for Kinematic Systems on Lie Groups [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
It is known that invariance and equivariance properties for systems on Lie groups can be exploited in the design of high performance and robust observers and filters for real-world robotic systems. This paper proposes an analysis framework that allows any kinematic system on a Lie group to be embedded in a natural manner into an equivariant kinematic ...

Absence of Functional Autoantibodies Targeting Angiotensin II Receptor Type 1 and Endothelin‐1 Type A Receptor in Circulation and Purified IgG From Patients With Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare but severe autoimmune disease characterized by immune dysregulation, fibrosis, and vasculopathy. Although previous studies have highlighted the presence of functional autoantibodies targeting the angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1) and endothelin‐1 type A receptor (ETAR), leading to autoantibody‐mediated ...

The accessory renal arteries: A systematic review with meta‐analysis

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
Abstract The accessory renal arteries (ARAs) are a well‐described variant of the renal vasculature with clinical implications for radiologists, surgeons, and clinicians. The aim of the present systematic review with meta‐analysis was to estimate the pooled prevalence of ARAs, including their variant number, origin, and termination, and to highlight ...
