The Renin-Angiotensin System in Anesthesia
1987The renin-angiotensin system has received considerable attention in the last several years and is one of a variety of vasoactive substances that are known to be important in controlling blood pressure. The presentation will focus on how the various aspects of the renin-angiotensin system may have important implications for the anesthesiologist.

The renin-angiotensin system and atherosclerosis
Current Hypertension Reports, 2006Atherosclerosis is an insidious and complex disease of large- and medium-sized arteries. The primum movens of the disease is characterized by co-localization of lipids, inflammatory cells, and fibrous elements within the intima of vessels. Starting as a "fatty streak," the disease evolves over decades into complex lesions that can progress toward a ...

The Adrenal Renin/Angiotensin System
1995In mammals, the adrenals are paired glands lying anterior to the kidney, having a combined wet weight approximately 0.1%–0.2% of the total body weight. Histologically, the cells of the outer part of the gland, the cortex, which entirely surround the inner medulla, are arranged as three major layers, or zones, organized as concentric shells.

The dynamics of the renin-angiotensin system
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1969Abstract We have used the blood-bathed organ technique (Vane 1964) to study the liberation of renin into the bloodstream and the subsequent formation of angiotensin I and angiotensin II. The rat isolated colon was superfused (Gaddum 1953) continuously with heparinized blood from dogs, to detect changes in angiotensin II concentration ...

The intrarenal renin-angiotensin system
Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1993The standard concept of the renin-angiotensin system is that renin is secreted by the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney into the circulation, where it cleaves angiotensin to release angiotensin I. The angiotensin I is converted to angiotensin II by a converting enzyme located on the plasma membrane of the endothelial cell. The released angiotensin II

[The tissue renin-angiotensin systems].
Annali italiani di medicina interna : organo ufficiale della Societa italiana di medicina interna, 1993Over the past 10 years, our understanding of the renin-angiotensin system has changed greatly, reflecting significant advances in this field. Studies in cell biology, the application of molecular biological techniques, and studies of angiotensin kinetics have provided evidence for the existence in various sites (cardiac, cerebral, renal, vascular and ...

Renin-Angiotensin System in the Adrenal
Hormone and Metabolic Research, 1998Extrarenal renin has been found in a number of tissues. All the components of the renin-angiotensin system have been identified in the adrenal cortex. Adrenal renin has been found in many animal species, including the human, but most of the studies have been carried out in the rat.
