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 ...

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Abstract Sodium‐glucose co‐transporters (SGLTs) mediate sodium and glucose transport across cell membranes. SGLT2 inhibitors have a recognized place within heart failure (HF) guidelines. We evaluated the effect of sotagliflozin on HF and cardiovascular outcomes in participants with type 2 diabetes. Scopus, Medline, Embase and Central were searched from

Amiloride enhances the secretion but not the synthesis of renin in renal juxtaglomerular cells
In this study we have examined a potential role of the sodium/proton exchange system in the regulation of renin secretion. We found that the inhibitors of the Na+/H+ antiport, amiloride (1 mM) and ethylisopropylamiloride (EIPA, 50 microM), led to a 125 ...

Controversies of renin–angiotensin system inhibition during the COVID-19 pandemic
The current COVID-19 pandemic is associated with unprecedented morbidity and mortality. Early reports suggested an association between disease severity and hypertension but did not account for sources of confounding. However, the responsible virus — SARS-

Abstract Aims Blood levels of N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) may be modified by low renal clearance and anaemia. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the blood NT‐proBNP level on cardiovascular and renal outcomes in patients with these two manifestations.

The human renin infused rat model (HRIRM) was used as an in vivo small-animal model for evaluating the efficacy of a collection of inhibitors of human renin. The intravenous infusion of recombinant human renin (2.4 µg·kg-1·min-1) in the ganglion-blocked,

Synthetic Phosphatidylethanolamines as Renin Inhibitors
SummaryAnti-renin and hypotensive effects of synthetic PEs were examined.(i) Eighteen PEs including optical isomers were newly synthesized. Arachidonic acid, linolenic acid, and stearic acid were substituted at the positions of β, γ, or both. Natural PE was extracted from porcine kidney, and the lyso form was prepared by treatment of phospholipase A ...
