Alternative Renin-Angiotensin System

Hypertension
The renin-angiotensin system is the most important peptide hormone system in the regulation of cardiovascular homeostasis. Its classical arm consists of the enzymes, renin, and angiotensin-converting enzyme, generating angiotensin II from angiotensinogen, which activates its AT 1 receptor ...

Pharmacology of the renin-angiotensin system.

Folia Pharmacologica Japonica, 1994
Recent developments in the techniques of molecular biology and the availability of inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system have provided new insight into renin-angiotensin research. The control mechanism of renin release and the metabolism of circulating renin have been well characterized on the molecular level. Angiotensin II has been shown to play

eGFR slope as predictor of mortality in heart failure patients

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1217-1226, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) leads to an imbalance between heart and kidney function, resulting in poor outcomes. However, the prognostic significance of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) trajectory in HF patients remains unclear. We analysed electronic health records (EHRs) of real‐world HF patients, assessing eGFR trajectories and ...

Epidemiology of hospitalized heart failure in France based on national data over 10 years, 2012–2022

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1283-1294, April 2025.
Abstract Aims We aim to describe the incidence of HF hospitalization in France in the post‐pandemic era, the prevalence of HF cases and patients' characteristics, management and outcomes while focusing on sex, age and socio‐economic differences and to analyse time‐trends between 2012 and 2022.

Upregulation of angiotensin-(1-7) formation in human podocytes - enzyme activity assay upon fluid flow shear stress.

PLoS ONE
The renin-angiotensin system is known for its role in renal physiology by regulating renal hemodynamics and natriuresis. Overactivation of this system exerts pathological effects in the kidney, primarily mediated by its main effector peptide angiotensin ...

Left atrial function in uraemic patients: Four‐dimensional automatic left atrial quantitative technology study

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1316-1325, April 2025.
Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the utility of left atrial volume and function in uraemic patients using four‐dimensional automatic left atrial quantification (4D auto LAQ) technology. Methods Thirty‐four undialysed uraemic patients (U‐ND group), 60 dialysed uraemic patients (U‐D group), and 32 healthy volunteers (N group) were enrolled

Collecting Duct Nitric Oxide Synthase 1ß Activation Maintains Sodium Homeostasis During High Sodium Intake Through Suppression of Aldosterone and Renal Angiotensin II Pathways

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundDuring high sodium intake, the renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system is downregulated and nitric oxide signaling is upregulated in order to remain in sodium balance.

Prognostic impact of iron deficiency in new‐onset chronic heart failure: Danish Heart Failure Registry insights

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1346-1357, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Iron deficiency (ID) is prevalent in chronic heart failure (HF) but lacks a consensus definition. This study evaluates the prevalence and the prognostic impact of ID using different criteria on all‐cause and cardiovascular mortality, as well as first hospitalization for HF in patients with new‐onset chronic HF.

A Delphi consensus project to capture experts' opinion on hyperkalaemia management across the cardiorenal spectrum

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1132-1140, April 2025.
Abstract The main purpose of this project was to capture experts' opinion on hyperkalaemia management and form best practice recommendations for cardiorenal patients in Greece. A steering committee of nephrologists and cardiologists developed 37 statements. An online questionnaire completed by 32 experts in cardiorenal management in Greece.
