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.

Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System and Immunomodulation: A State-of-the-Art Review
The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) has long been described in the field of cardiovascular physiology as the main player in blood pressure homeostasis. However, other effects have since been described, and include proliferation, fibrosis, and inflammation.

The Role of Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System in the Heart and Lung: Focus on COVID-19
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) firstly considered as a cardiovascular circulating hormonal system, it is now accepted as a local tissue system that works synergistically or independently with the circulating one.

In patients with current or a history of hyperkalaemia, treatment with renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASi) is often compromised. Patiromer, a novel potassium (K+) binder, may improve serum K+ levels and adherence to RAASi.

It is found that only in adolescents with I type left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, there is a significant activation of sympathoadrenal system, and in patients with type II and III, increasing activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system ...

Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System: From History to Practice of a Secular Topic. [PDF]
Renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors are standard care in patients with hypertension, heart failure or chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although we have studied the RAAS for decades, there are still circumstances that remain unclear.

Aldosterone status associates with insulin resistance in patients with heart failure-data from the ALOFT study [PDF]
<b>Background</b>: Aldosterone plays a key role in the pathophysiology of heart failure. In around 50% of such patients, aldosterone 'escapes' from inhibition by drugs that interrupt the renin-angiotensin axis; such patients have a worse ...

BackgroundDuring high sodium intake, the renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system is downregulated and nitric oxide signaling is upregulated in order to remain in sodium balance.
