Renal‐vascular axis: unmasking its role in vascular endothelial growth factor‐inhibitor vascular toxicity in cancer patients

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Vascular toxicity is a growing concern in cancer patients receiving vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor (VEGFi) therapy, posing a significant threat to patient prognosis. While the primary mechanism of VEGFi‐induced vascular toxicity is linked to redox‐sensitive reactions that disrupt vascular tone, leading to hypertension and ...

Calcitonin gene-related peptide is a stimulator of renin secretion

, 1988
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) was found to stimulate renin secretion in vivo in normal human volunteers. Moreover, CGRP stimulated the release of renin in vitro from isolated rat renal juxtaglomerular cells (half-maximal effective concentration [

Calmodulin antagonists stimulate renin secretion and inhibit renin synthesis in vitro [PDF]

, 1992
To find out whether calmodulin activity could be a common denominator for the cellular control of renin secretion and synthesis, we have examined the effects of calmodulin antagonists on the secretion and the synthesis of renin in primary cultures of ...

A comprehensive review of cancer‐induced cardiac wasting

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer is frequently accompanied by cachexia, a systemic syndrome characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, with or without loss of fat mass. Increasing evidence indicates that cancer can also induce cardiac muscle wasting, which is associated with structural cardiac remodelling, impaired contractile function and the development of ...

(Pro)renin receptor: another member of the system controlled by angiotensin II?

, 2012
The prorenin receptor [(P)RR] is upregulated in the diabetic kidney and has been implicated in the high glucose (HG)-induced overproduction of profibrotic molecules by mesangial cells (MCs), which is mediated by ERK1/2 phosphorylation. the regulation of (

Atrial natriuretic peptide counteracts aldosterone secretion by preventing acute angiotensin II‐induced cAMP signalling

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Aldosterone plays a key role in blood pressure and volume regulation. Enhanced aldosterone secretion contributes to cardiovascular and renal diseases. Therefore, inhibitors of aldosterone receptors and synthase are essential drugs for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure.

Genetic polymorphisms of the renin-angiotensin system in preterm delivery and premature rupture of membranes

, 2007
Introduction. Premature rupture of membranes (PRM) is a late pregnancy complication commonly associated with preterm delivery (PD). Although several markers related to the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) have been evaluated in certain pregnancy ...

Apparent Bilateral Aldosterone Suppression During Adrenal Vein Sampling: An Artefact of the Liaison Chemiluminescence Immunoassay and Other Causes Revealed by Comparisons With Another Commercial Immunoassay and Mass Spectrometry

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Subtyping of primary aldosteronism usually requires adrenal vein sampling (AVS). Interpretation can be compromised by apparent bilateral aldosterone suppression (ABAS), which we hypothesised reflects an artefact of the Liaison immunoassay of aldosterone.

Endocrine Hypertension, Adrenal Steroids and Development of a Saliva Based Aldosterone Assay as a Potential Screening Method [PDF]

, 2008
Recent evidence has shown the increased incidence of PA in approximately 15% of the hypertensive population, making a non-invasive and simple screening method for the measurement of aldosterone levels necessary.
