Effect of renin–angiotensin system on senescence
Geriatrics & Gerontology International, 2020 The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) plays crucial roles in the control of blood pressure and sodium homeostasis. Moreover, RAS also acts as a key player in cell and organ senescence, mainly by activation of the classical axis of angiotensin (Ang ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Angiotensin II (AngII), a neuropeptide, interacts with amyloid‐β (Aβ), a key player in Alzheimer's disease. This study reveals that AngII reduces Aβ aggregation and membrane disruption in vitro. Biophysical assays and molecular modeling suggest AngII binds disordered Aβ forms, potentially modulating early amyloidogenic events and contributing to ...

A critical appraisal of the intrinsic pancreatic angiotensin-generating system [PDF]
, 2001 The pancreas is a relative newcomer to the stable of tissues with an intrinsic angiotensin-generating system. The involvement of this system in pancreatic activity will be dependent on the angiotensin-generating paths present in the pancreas and their ...

Angiotensin type-2 (AT-2)-receptor activation reduces renal fibrosis in cyclosporine nephropathy: evidence for blood-pressure independent effect [PDF]
, 2016 Compound 21 (C21), selective agonist of AT2 receptors, shows antinflammatory effects in hypertension and nephroprotection in diabetes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of C21 in cyclosporine nephropathy, which is characterized mainly by ...

Inherited renal tubular dysgenesis: the first patients surviving the neonatal period [PDF]
, 2018 Renal tubular dysgenesis (RTD) is a clinical disorder either acquired during fetal development or inherited as an autosomal recessive condition. Inherited RTD is caused by mutations in the genes encoding the components of the renin-angiotensin system ...
