On a control diet, plasma renin concentration (in ng angiotensin I per ... a change of baroreceptor activity, or a change of sympathetic nerve activity, because dietary salt intake can influence ...

Although components of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) are reported to be expressed in cultured chondrocytes and cartilage, little is known about the precise function of Angiotensin II (Ang II ...

Role of the RAAS in the Pathophysiology of Heart Failure ACE inhibitors have no effect on angiotensin II formed by alternate pathways. In contrast, ARBs would be expected to inhibit the biologic ...

Angiotensin II (AT-II)-Receptor Antagonists are Reviewed. Research focused on blocking the renin- angiotensin system (RAS) led to the discovery of angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors ...

26 In that context, the development of a dominant Ang II–dependent brake on renin release could be seen as a kind of safety valve. This remarkable contribution of angiotensin to the control of renin ...

Researchers found that people with specific patterns of brain activity and white matter structure performed better in the game StarCraft II, especially when it came to resource-related tasks that ...

Nasdaq Insider Activity page provides trading information of corporate insiders (officers, directors and any beneficial owners of more than 10% of a class of the company’s equity securities).

Researchers found that people with specific patterns of brain activity and white matter structure performed better in the game StarCraft II, especially when it came to resource-related tasks that ...

Conclusion: AT1 expression is upregulated in fibrotic lungs. Angiotensin II promotes lung fibrosis via AT1 and, presumably, in part via TGF-β 1.

With this purpose, we evaluated and confirmed Buforin II antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli, confirmed its action mechanism in the bacteria and in a membrane model using large unilamellar ...
