c-Src Inhibition Improves Cardiovascular Function but not Remodeling or Fibrosis in Angiotensin II-Induced Hypertension.
c-Src plays an important role in angiotensin II (Ang II) signaling. Whether this member of the Src family kinases is involved in the development of Ang II-induced hypertension and associated cardiovascular damage in vivo remains unknown. Here, we studied Ang II-infused (400 ng/kg/min) mice in which c-Src was partially deleted (c-Src+/-) and in wild-type (WT, c-Src+/+) mice treated with a c-Src ...
متن کاملAngiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker combined with hydrochlorothiazide for the treatment of hypertension.
Hypertension is a critical risk factor for cardiovascular disease that affects an estimated 35 million people in Japan. According to the Japanese Society of Hypertension 2004 Guidelines for the Management of Hypertension, recommended BP goals are <130/85 mmHg, or <130/80 mmHg for patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) or chronic kidney disease (CKD) (1). Since two-thirds of patients do not have b...
متن کاملNot Only What, but Also How Matters Introducing Procedural Utility: Not Only What, but Also How Matters
People not only care about outcomes, they also value the procedures which lead to the outcomes. Procedural utility is a potentially important source of human well-being. This paper aims at introducing the concept of procedural utility into economics, and argues that it should be incorporated more widely into economic theory and empirical research. Three building blocks of a concept of procedura...
متن کاملAngiotensin receptor blocker protection against podocyte-induced sclerosis is podocyte angiotensin II type 1 receptor-independent.
In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that the renoprotective effect of an angiotensin receptor blocker depends on the angiotensin II type 1 (AT(1)) receptor on podocytes. For this purpose, we generated podocyte-specific knockout mice for the AT(1) gene (Agtr1a) and crossed with NEP25, in which selective podocyte injury can be induced by immunotoxin, anti-Tac(Fv)-PE38. Four weeks after...
