Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and renin-aldosterone in volume regulation of patients with cirrhosis [PDF]

, 1989
The role of the atrial natriuretic factor and of the main counteracting sodium-retaining principle, the renin-aldosterone system, in acute volume regulation of cirrhosis of the liver has been investigated.

APOL1 Modulates Renin–Angiotensin System

Biomolecules
Patients carrying APOL1 risk alleles (G1 and G2) have a higher risk of developing Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS); we hypothesized that escalated levels of miR193a contribute to kidney injury by activating renin–angiotensin system (RAS) in the ...

Renal Renin-Angiotensin System [PDF]

, 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 ...

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,
