The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and fibrinolysis

Journal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2000
Activation of the RAAS has been linked with an increased risk of myocardial infarction and stroke,(1,2,37,38) and recently these beneficial effects have, in part, been attributed to the effects of the RAAS on the fibrinolytic system. Indeed, ACE seems to occupy a central position in modulating the fibrinolytic balance, where an angiotensin II-mediated ...

The renin angiotensin aldosterone system and COVID-19

Saudi Pharmaceutical Journal, 2020
The ongoing pandemic has stimulated study of the Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS), and how it can be manipulated to treat COVID-19. Studies are examining whether drugs that act on the RAAS system might be useful to treat COVID-19. COVID-19 and

Aldosterone status associates with insulin resistance in patients with heart failure-data from the ALOFT study [PDF]

, 2009
<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 ...

Correlation with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone and glomerular filtration rate in chronic renal failure patients

Diyala Journal of Medicine, 2023
Background: One of the more significant hormonal systems, the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, controls the kidney function, adrenal gland through its effect on the balance of sodium and potassium, blood pressure, fluid volume, and also manages the

The effects of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system gene polymorphisms on insulin resistance in hypertensive families

, 2014
Introduction: The hereditability of insulin resistance has been demonstrated in both familial and twin studies. The effects of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system gene polymorphisms on insulin resistance remain inconclusive.

Serum Soluble Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme-2 Level and Its Potential Association With The Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System in Non-Hypertensive Iraqi COVID-19 Patients: An Observational Study

Iraqi Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2023
Background: The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is caused by Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-Cov2) which utilizes angiotensin converting enzyme2 (ACE2) to invade the host cells.

The cytochrome 11B2 aldosterone synthase gene rs1799998 single nucleotide polymorphism determines elevated aldosterone, higher blood pressure, and reduced glomerular filtration, especially in diabetic female patients

Endocrine Regulations, 2020
Objective. The cytochrome 11B2 aldosterone synthase gene (CYP11B2) that links to aldosterone synthase enzyme synthesis changes and blood pressure regulation is of particular interest among the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system encoding genes.

Nongenomic effects of aldosterone on phosphocreatine levels in human calf muscle during recovery from exercise. [PDF]

, 1996
Nongenomic in vitro effects of aldosterone on the sodium-proton antiport and intracellular second messengers have been described in human mononuclear leukocytes, vascular smooth muscle cells, and endothelial cells.

Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System in Heart Failure: Focus on Nonclassical Angiotensin Pathways as Novel Upstream Targets Regulating Aldosterone [PDF]

, 2019
Aldosterone plays an important role in the regulation of blood pressure, body fluid, and electrolyte homeostasis. Overactivation of aldosterone/mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) pathway leads to hypertension, atherosclerosis, vascular damage, heart failure,

Aliskiren, Fosinopril, and Their Outcome on Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) in Rats with Thyroid Dysfunction

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2019
Background and Objectives. Thyroid hormones have an important role in the growth and development of various tissues including the kidney, which is the major site of renin release and the consequent angiotensin and aldosterone formation.
