Of Mice and Renin [PDF]

Hypertension, 2017
See related article, pp 119–128 Organisms tend to compensate for the need of a cellular function by increasing the amount or the size of the responsible cell type. Hypertrophy of all muscle types under increased workload is a prominent example. Also several hormone systems react by increasing the amount of hormone-producing cells, when the main ...

Regulation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system by cyclic nucleotides and phosphodiesterases

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is one of the key players in the regulation of blood volume and blood pressure. Dysfunction of this system is connected with cardiovascular and renal diseases.

Manipulation of components of the renin angiotensin system in renal proximal tubules fails to alter atherosclerosis in hypercholesterolemic mice

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Background and objectiveWhole body manipulation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) consistently exerts profound effects on experimental atherosclerosis development. A deficit in the literature has been a lack of attention to the effects of sex.

SPARC Drives Podocyte Mitochondrial Damage and Ferroptosis in Diabetic Kidney Disease Following Klotho Deficiency

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Klotho deficiency promotes podocyte mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis through activation of the PKCα/CUX1/SPARC/TGFβ‐RII axis. SPARC emerges as a key mediator linking Klotho loss to podocyte injury in DKD and other kidney injury models, suggesting broader implications for CKD progression.

Relation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system with potential cardiac injury and remodelling: the SABPA study

Blood Pressure, 2020
Purpose: The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays an important role in maintaining hemodynamic homeostasis. Ethnic disparities exist regarding RAAS activity due to sympathetic activity and sodium-water retention, however the implications ...

Metabolic Memory in Cardiovascular Disease: Encoding, Propagation, and Therapeutic Targeting

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cardiovascular risk often persists after metabolic abnormalities are corrected. This conceptual Review frames such persistence as metabolic memory, encoded through a narrowing therapeutic window from reversible marks to irreversible damage, with continuous input from peripheral organs.

C3aR Antagonist Alleviates C3a Induced Tubular Profibrotic Phenotype Transition via Restoring PPARα/CPT-1α Mediated Mitochondrial Fatty Acid Oxidation in Renin-Dependent Hypertension

Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2023
Background: Renin-dependent hypertension with tubulointerstitial injury remains a problem with high prevalence in the clinic. However, whether and how renin participates in tubulointerstitial injury remains incompletely understood.

Lack of direct evidence for a functional role of voltage-operated calcium channels in juxtaglomerular cells [PDF]

, 1990
In this study we have examined the role of voltage-gated calcium channels in the regulation of calcium in juxtaglomerular cells. Using a combination of patch-clamp and single-cell calcium measurement we obtained evidence neither for voltage-operated ...

Intelligent Programmable Membrane Nanosponge for Early Virus Blocking

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A smart programmable nanosponge (ACNPs) displays high‐density viral receptors on its membrane and encapsulates fusion inhibitors to capture virions at the infection source through competitive binding and blocks their entry through protease inhibition for ultra‐early cascade interception. This modular, mucus‐penetrating platform shifts antiviral defence

Protein Kinase G Is Involved in Acute but Not in Long-Term Regulation of Renin Secretion

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Pharmacological inhibition of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) is, in combination with diuretics, the first-choice treatment for hypertension, although 10–20% of patients do not respond adequately.
