Protection against isoproterenol-induced cardiac injury by sacubitril/valsartan is associated with upregulation of the alternative renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system pathway [PDF]
Long-term stimulation of myocardial beta-receptors by isoproterenol is a well-established model of heart damage and failure. This study investigated the potential interactions of isoproterenol administration with the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (

Updates on the Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System and the Cardiovascular Continuum [PDF]
The cardiovascular continuum describes how several cardiovascular risk factors contribute to the development of atherothrombosis, ischemic heart disease, and peripheral arteriopathy, leading to cardiac and renal failure and ultimately death.

Quarterly injectable hormonal contraceptive does not increase the activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in women without cardiovascular risk factors [PDF]
Objective: To test the hypothesis that the quarterly injectable contraceptive increases the activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. Methods: This was a cross-sectional observational study that included eutrophic, irregularly active women ...

The renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system, neurohumoral axis and cardiovascular mortality in LURIC
Although neurohormones and Renin‐Angiotensin‐Aldosterone‐System (RAAS) components are important predictors of cardiovascular mortality (CVM), their importance for predicting outcomes in patients with/without RAAS‐blockers and different degrees of ...

Regulation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system by cyclic nucleotides and phosphodiesterases
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is one of the key players in the regulation of blood volume and blood pressure. Dysfunction of this system is connected with cardiovascular and renal diseases.
