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,

Role of monocytes/macrophages in renin-angiotensin system-induced hypertension and end organ damage
, 2023 The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is a central modulator of cardiovascular physiology. Pathophysiology of hypertension is commonly accompanied by hyper-activation of RAS.

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists modestly lower blood pressure across diverse patient populations, including those without diabetes. These effects appear largely independent of glycaemic control and offer additive value in high‐risk patients with overlapping comorbidities.

The association of hypertension with renin–angiotensin system gene polymorphisms in the Lebanese population [PDF]
, 2011 Aim: The study objective was to examine the association of hypertension in the Lebanese population with three renin–angiotensin system gene polymorphisms (RAS): angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), angiotensinogen (AGT) and angiotensin-receptor type 1 ...

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Nicotine and the renin-angiotensin system [PDF]
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2018 Cigarette smoking is the single most important risk factor for the development of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases (CVPD). Although cigarette smoking has been in constant decline since the 1950s, the introduction of e-cigarettes or electronic nicotine delivery systems 10 yr ago has attracted former smokers as well as a new generation of consumers.

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Hypertension in obesity represents a major global health challenge, closely linked to the global epidemics of obesity, type 2 diabetes and metabolic dysfunction. Excess adiposity contributes to elevated blood pressure through multiple, interrelated mechanisms, including activation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, sympathetic nervous system ...

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Rotational atherectomy (RA) has undergone considerable technical modernization in recent years. This study evaluated whether RA performed in the contemporary era was associated with superior cardiovascular outcomes compared with the traditional era. Aims To compare the clinical characteristics and cardiovascular outcomes of patients

Clinical Impact of Adherence to Fractional Flow Reserve Guidance in Acute Coronary Syndrome
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is established to guide revascularization in stable coronary disease and non‐culprit lesions in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, real‐world adherence to FFR guidance across the spectrum of ACS presentations, including ambiguous culprit scenarios, remains incompletely characterized.
