Efficacy and safety of dual blockade of the renin-angiotensin system: meta-analysis of randomised trials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The concept of dual blockade of the renin-angiotensin system originated from an experimental model purporting to show a “synergistic” effect between angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers.The concept seemed so ...

Megalin: a Novel Determinant of Renin-Angiotensin System Activity in the Kidney? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Purpose of Review: Megalin is well known for its role in the reabsorption of proteins from the ultrafiltrate. Recent studies suggest that megalin also reabsorbs renin and angiotensinogen.

Clinical implications of left atrial changes after optimization of medical therapy in patients with heart failure

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 2131-2139, November 2022., 2022
Among patients with new‐onset or worsening heart failure (HF) undergoing optimization of HF medical therapy, dose up‐titration of angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker (ACEi/ARB) therapy was associated with lower likelihood of left atrial adverse remodelling (LAAR).

New roles for renin and prorenin in heart failure and cardiorenal crosstalk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS) plays a central role in the pathophysiology of heart failure and cardiorenal interaction. Drugs interfering in the RAAS form the pillars in treatment of heart failure and cardiorenal syndrome. Although RAAS

The renin-angiotensin system: going beyond the classical paradigms

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology. Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2019
Thirty years ago, a novel axis of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) was unveiled by the discovery of angiotensin-(1−7) [ANG-(1−7)] generation in vivo. Later, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) was shown to be the main mediator of this reaction, and ...

Persistent and selective upregulation of renin-angiotensin system in circulating T lymphocytes in unstable angina. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction: Unstable angina is associated with an acute systemic inflammatory reaction and circulating T lymphocytes are activated. We investigated whether in unstable angina with marked immune system activation a selective upregulation of the ...

Novel Therapeutic Approaches Targeting the Renin-Angiotensin System and Associated Peptides in Hypertension and Heart Failure

open access: yesPharmacological Reviews, 2019
Despite the success of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) blockers, current therapies for hypertension and related cardiovascular diseases are still ...

Guideline‐directed medical therapy in patients undergoing transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair for secondary mitral regurgitation

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 2152-2161, November 2022., 2022
Triple guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) prescription was associated with a lower 2‐year mortality compared to non‐triple GDMT prescription (A). Such association was observed in patients with concomitant comorbidities (B). CI, confidence interval; CKD, chronic kidney disease; CMP, cardiomyopathy; HR, hazard ratio; MRA, mineralocorticoid ...
