Stroke‐Heart Syndrome: Mechanisms, Temporal Phenotypes, and Diagnostic Reasoning

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Stroke‐heart syndrome describes new or worsened cardiac abnormalities after acute stroke. This Review defines its clinical boundaries, traces autonomic, inflammatory, endothelial, and supply‐demand mechanisms across time, and proposes provisional phenotypes that integrate lesion location, premorbid cardiac substrate, serial biomarkers ...

Chinese Expert Consensus on the Clinical Application of Finerenone in Geriatric Comorbidities

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) overactivation drives inflammation, oxidative stress, and fibrosis in the heart, kidneys, and vasculature, leading to cardiorenal dysfunction. MR signaling promotes hypertrophy, remodeling, and injury through pathways like oxidative stress and inflammation, resulting in vascular stiffness and progressive organ damage ...

Renal Renin-Angiotensin System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The cardinal role of the intrarenal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the control of sodium excretion and the pathophysiology of hypertension continues to receive increased attention. In addition to its very powerful vasoconstrictor action, angiotensin (Ang) II exerts important actions on tubular transport function and several recent studies have ...

A Novel NR3C1 Frameshift Variant Associated With Familial Glucocorticoid Resistance Syndrome: An Integrated Analysis of Steroid Profiling and Structural Modeling

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glucocorticoid resistance syndrome (GRS) is a rare hereditary disorder caused by pathogenic variants in NR3C1, characterized by marked phenotypic heterogeneity and frequent misdiagnosis as primary aldosteronism or subclinical Cushing's syndrome.

The structure of testis angiotensin-converting enzyme (tACE-g13) in complex with the inhibitor RXPA380 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Includes bibliographical references.Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), a zinc metalloprotease, is a key regulator of the mammalian renin-angiotensin system (RAS) Primarily, ACF is a dipeptidl peptidase which cleaves angiotensin I to produce angiotensin

Hepatic Mitochondrial Renin-Angiotensin Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Introduction: The circulating renin-angiotensin system (RAS) was originally described as a key endocrine regulator of intravascular homeostasis; however, the existence of a local (tissue) RAS has become increasingly reported in a variety of tissues ...

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

The 9+ month marathon: How pregnancy may have shaped human endurance capacities

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Anthropology has long considered the evolution of our uniquely human endurance capacities to be the result of selection upon anatomical and physiological features imposed by the demands of thermoregulation and resource acquisition, particularly during the demands of persistence hunting. Research has focused on the anatomical changes present in

Disparate effects of calcium channel blockers on pressure dependence of renin secretion and flow in the isolated perfused rat kidney [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Using the model of isolated perfused rat kidneys this study was performed to investigate whether or not voltage-operated calcium channels are essentially involved in the pressure control of renin secretion from the kidneys. At a perfusion pressure of 100

Trends in 25 years of antihypertensive agent utilization in Croatia – an alert for scientific community and healthcare providers

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Hypertension is a leading modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular mortality worldwide. This study aimed to evaluate 25‐year trends in antihypertensive agent (AHA) utilization in Croatia between 2000 and 2024. Methods We conducted a national, population‐based analysis using IMS and IQVIA pharmaceutical databases.
