Aliskiren Attenuates the Inflammatory Response and Wound Healing Process in Diabetic Mice With Periodontal Disease

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
The aim of this study was to characterize the role of local RAS (renin–angiotensin system) in the inflammatory response of normal (N) and diabetic (D) mice with periodontal disease (PD).

Regulation of plasma aldosterone during hemodialysis [PDF]

, 1990
In order to clarify the influence of serum potassium, serum sodium and plasma angiotensin II concentrations on aldosterone release during hemodialysis (HD), six chronic hemodialysis patients were studied during HD with varying dialysate sodium ...

RAS-challenge as a first-look test for detection of primary aldosteronism in patients with treatment-resistant hypertension

Blood Pressure, 2023
Purpose Primary aldosteronism (PA), characterised by low-renin hypertension, confers a high cardiovascular risk and is the most common cause of secondary hypertension, with an increased prevalence in patients with treatment-resistant hypertension ...

Latent Adrenal Insufficiency: From Concept to Diagnosis

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) is a rare disease and potentially fatal if unrecognized. It is characterized by destruction of the adrenal cortex, most frequently of autoimmune origin, resulting in glucocorticoid, mineralocorticoid, and adrenal ...

Peripheral Blood Leukocyte Subpopulation Changes in Reaction to an Acute Psychosocial Stressor as Compared to an Active Placebo-Stressor in Healthy Young Males: Mediating Effects of Major Stress-Reactive Endocrine Parameters

Cells
Psychosocial stress has been proposed to induce a redistribution of immune cells, but a comparison with an active placebo-psychosocial stress control condition is lacking so far.

Implications of Plasma Renin Activity and Plasma Aldosterone Concentration in Critically Ill Patients with Septic Shock [PDF]

Korean Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2017
Background The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is closely associated with volume status and vascular tone in septic shock. The present study aimed to assess whether plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) measurements ...

A Comparative Study on Inter and Intra-Laboratory Reproducibility of Renin Measurement with a Conventional Enzymatic Method and a New Chemiluminescent Assay of Immunoreactive Renin

, 2009
Background: The activity of the renin-angiotensin system is usually evaluated as plasma renin activity (PRA, ng AI/ml/h) but the interlaboratory reproducibility of this enzymatic assay is notoriously scarce.
