The Impact of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System on Inflammation, Coagulation, and Atherothrombotic Complications, and to Aggravated COVID-19

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Atherosclerosis is considered a disease caused by a chronic inflammation, associated with endothelial dysfunction, and several mediators of inflammation are up-regulated in subjects with atherosclerotic disease.

Regulation of plasma aldosterone during hemodialysis

open access: yes, 1990
In order to clarify the influence of serum potassium, serum sodium and plasma angiotensin II concentrations on aldosterone release during hemodialysis (HD), six chronic hemodialysis patients were studied during HD with varying dialysate sodium ...

Angiotensin II induces soluble fms-Like tyrosine kinase-1 release via calcineurin signaling pathway in pregnancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Maternal endothelial dysfunction in preeclampsia is associated with increased soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1), a circulating antagonist of vascular endothelial growth factor and placental growth factor.

Characteristics and temporal trends of EU teratological safety signals and information dissemination to healthcare professionals in the Netherlands—A contribution of the ConcePTION project

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Although regulatory responses to safety signals have been studied, pregnancy‐specific data and their dissemination to medical professionals remain unclear. This study examined the characteristics and temporal trends of teratological safety signals prompting the European Medicines Agency to implement risk minimization measures.

Effect of renin–angiotensin system on senescence

open access: yesGeriatrics & 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 ...

Elevated Serum Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Levels As A Reflection Of Bone Marrow Renin-Angiotensin System Activation In Multiple Myeloma

open access: yes, 2012
Introduction: Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) is a circulating enzyme that participates in the body's renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and is localized on the endothelial cell surface in the lung and other vascular beds.

Impaired angiotensin II signaling in septic shock

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care
Recent years have seen a resurgence of interest for the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system in critically ill patients. Emerging data suggest that this vital homeostatic system, which plays a crucial role in maintaining systemic and renal hemodynamics ...

Aliskiren: An orally active renin inhibitor

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences, 2011
Renin inhibitors are antihypertensive drugs that block the first step in the renin-angiotensin system. Their mechanism of action differs from that of the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin-receptor antagonists, but like these drugs,

Local Hematopoietic Renin-Angiotensin System in Myeloid Versus Lymphoid Hematological Neoplastic Disorders

open access: yes, 2013
There is preliminary evidence that the local renin-angiotensin system (RAS) could affect neoplastic hematopoiesis. The aim of this study is to search messenger RNA (mRNA) expressions of the essential RAS elements in myeloid and lymphoid hematological ...
