Reproduction and the renin-angiotensin system

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 1995
A unique aspect of the circulating renin-angiotensin system and the many independent tissue renin-angiotensin systems is their interactions at multiple levels with reproduction. These interactions, which have received relatively little attention, include effects of estrogens and possibly androgens on hepatic and renal angiotensinogen mRNA; effects of ...

Tissue renin angiotensin systems

Medical Clinics of North America, 2004
The RAAS is a powerful regulator of vascular tone and intravascular volume and of tissue architecture and a variety of other functions. The recent appreciation of the immunoregulatory role of angiotensin II and its possible involvement in the genesis of atherosclerosis and in plaque rupture all speak to the wide-ranging physiologic and pathophysiologic

The ovarian renin-angiotensin system

Regulatory Peptides, 1994
We present a review that considers the regulation of ovarian function by the ovarian renin-angiotensin system. Evidence is presented that shows the ovarian renin-angiotensin system can regulate normal ovarian function by paracrine and intracrine mechanisms.

The Renin Angiotensin System

2010
The renin angiotensin system (RAS) is a hormonal cascade that is thought to act as a master controller of blood pressure and fluid balance within the body. In addition to the systemic RAS, there is a fully functional intrarenal RAS, which is postulated to play a central role in the development of chronic kidney disease.

Cardiac Renin–Angiotensin System

American Journal of Hypertension, 1989
Based on molecular, biological, biochemical, and pharmacological data, evidence is presented for a cardiac renin-angiotensin system. Using radiolabeled cRNA probes prepared from specific cDNA fragments, we were able to document renin and angiotensinogen gene expression in atria and ventricles of the rat heart by Northern blot and liquid hybridization ...

Renin-Angiotensin System in Diabetes

Protein & Peptide Letters, 2017
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has two different axes, the classical one with the effector peptide angiotensin II and the new one with the effector peptide angiotensin (1-7). Both peptides have been shown to be involved in the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus and its consequences, nephropathy, retinopathy and cardiomyopathy in animal models and ...

Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system

European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1980
There is increased activity of the renin, angiotensin, aldosterone (RAA) system in infancy and childhood. An inverse relationship between plasma renin, aldosterone and age has been demonstrated. In childhood hypertension due to renovascular disease or pyelonephritic scarring peripheral plasma renin is increased.

The intrarenal renin-angiotensin system

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1993
The 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
