Knowledge of the structure, function and distribution of the components of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAS) and the integrated physiological role of this hormonal system is rapidly increasing, although many questions remain unanswered. The primary structure and localisation of RAS such as renin, prorenin, angiotensinogen, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and the angiotensins ha...
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) plays an important role in regulating blood pressure the body by converting angiotensin-I into angiotensin-II. It is basic component of Renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS), imbalance RAAS may leads to many cardiovascular and renal diseases. There are marketed available drugs for inhibition ACE, but prolonged use some cause progressive side effects. Re...
INTRODUCTION Unstable angina is associated with an acute systemic inflammatory reaction and circulating T lymphocytes are activated. We investigated whether in unstable angina with marked immune system activation a selective upregulation of the circulating T-cell renin-angiotensin system, modulated by angiotensin II, could occur. METHODS We studied 13 unstable angina patients, 10 patients wit...
Reduced transport of amino acids from mother to fetus can lead to fetal intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). The activities of several amino acid transport systems, including system A, are decreased in placental syncytiotrophoblast of IUGR pregnancies. Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity provides an essential driving force for Na(+)-coupled system A transport, is decreased in the placenta of IUGR pre...
OBJECTIVE Activation of the renal renin-angiotensin system in patients with diabetes mellitus appears to contribute to the risk of nephropathy. Recently, it has been recognized than an elevation of prorenin in plasma also provides a strong indication of risk of nephropathy. This study was designed to examine renin-angiotensin system control mechanisms in the patient with diabetes mellitus. ME...
The continued acquisition of information on the distribution of expression of components of the renin-angiotensin system shows that it has functions in the tissues that are quite unrelated to its systemic actions. In particular, both type 1 and type 2 angiotensin receptors are found in many tissues of the reproductive system of both sexes. In addition, the widespread occurrence of (pro)renin, a...
Experimental data suggest that a tissue renin-angiotensin system is present in the pancreatic islets of several species, including man. However, the physiological role for this local renin-angiotensin system remains largely unknown. In vitro findings argue against a direct effect of angiotensin II on alpha- and beta-cells. In contrast, when the influence of angiotensin II on the pancreatic isle...
The renin-angiotensin system has long been recognized as an important regulator of systemic blood pressure and renal electrolyte homeostasis, and local renin-angiotensin systems have also been implicated in pathological changes of organ structure and function by modulation of gene expression, growth, fibrosis, and inflammatory response. Recently, substantial data have been accumulated in suppor...
