Linking oxidative stress, the renin-angiotensin system, and hypertension.
The involvement of oxidative stress in hypertension and in renal and cardiovascular diseases has been intensely studied since the early 1990s. Oxidative stress has been implicated in chronic kidney disease,1 endothelial damage, atherosclerosis,2 and myocardial disease,3 whereas the administration of antioxidants, such as Tempol4 and N-acetyl cysteine,1 has been shown to exert a protective effec...
متن کاملRenin-angiotensin system and unilateral ureteral obstruction
Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) is a clinical scenario that leads to obstructive nephropathy. UUO alters the expression of many mediators in the ipsilateral kidney. Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is involved in UUO. Angiotensin II (Ang II) and angiotensin 1-7 (Ang 1-7) as the main arms of RAS influence kidney function which may alter by UUO. Ang II via Ang II receptor subtypes I (AT1R) ...
متن کاملThe renin angiotensin aldosterone system in hypertension: roles of insulin resistance and oxidative stress.
The relationship between HTNand other components of the CMSis complex. However, there is growing evidence that enhanced activation of the RAAS is a key factor in the development of endothelial dysfunction and HTN. Insulin resistance is induced by activation of the RAAS and resulting increases in ROS. This insulin resistance occurs in cardiovascular tissue and in tissues traditionally considered...
متن کاملHypertension and Renin-Angiotensin System
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) participates in numerous biological activities. Among these is the pathophysiological mechanisms of hypertension, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, diabetic nephropathy and inflammatory disorders. These pleiotropic effects led to the development of new therapeutic approaches to inhibit the actions of this system. This chapter aims to relate the ...
