Uric Acid in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 189-206, June 2026.
MASLD is the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, yet effective pharmacological treatments remain limited. Hyperuricemia is now recognized as a key driver of hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis, with elevated serum uric acid levels independently predicting hepatocellular carcinoma and liver‐related mortality.

Hepatic Mitochondrial Renin-Angiotensin Systems

open access: yes, 2015
Introduction: The circulating renin-angiotensin system (RAS) was originally described as a key endocrine regulator of intravascular homeostasis; however, the existence of a local (tissue) RAS has become increasingly reported in a variety of tissues ...

The vitreous renin–angiotensin system is mediated by soluble (pro)renin receptor in diabetic retinopathy: A new implication of the receptor-associated prorenin system

open access: yes, 2013
The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) plays pivotal roles in homeostasis, but its abnormal activation has been proposed as a risk factor for several disorders including diabetes. Using animal models, we previously clarified the molecular mechanisms in which

Mitochondrial Transplantation as a New Therapeutic Approach Against Cardiac and Renal Consequences in Male Rats With Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. MI is associated with cardiac structural and functional alterations. Among these, cardiac fibrosis may be significantly influenced by mitochondrial dysfunction. We sought to evaluate whether the injection of functional mitochondria from healthy muscle could improve

Prorenin receptor regulates more than the renin-angiotensin system

open access: yes, 2012
The (pro)renin receptor (PRR) was initially believed to be a contributor to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases via the amplification of renin- or prorenin-induced angiotensin (Ang) formation.

(Pro)renin receptor is associated with angiogenic activity in proliferative diabetic retinopathy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) potentially has a role in the development of end-organ damage, and tissue RAS activation has been suggested as a risk factor for diabetic retinopathy.
