Inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been shown to decrease mortality and morbidity in patients with heart failure and postmyocardial infarction. Experimental and clinical data ...

was looking at gene expression data from the lung fluid of COVID-19 patients on his computer screen when he spotted something striking—the expression of genes for key enzymes in the renin-angiotensin ...

If you need pain relief, the study suggests that acetaminophen (paracetamol) is a safer option for people on high blood pressure medications. Unlike ibuprofen, acetaminophen does not increase the risk ...

We have a longstanding interest in the role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in AD. Our work has helped characterise and better understand the genetic, biochemical and pathological role of brain ...

In particular, they were interested in being able to steer and activate the angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2 receptor), which is one of two receptors in the RAS.

which involved renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibition, blood pressure control, and lifestyle management. "These results highlight the importance of considering the 2-year eGFR total slope ...

Laura undertook a part-time PhD between January 2006 and July 2014. Her PhD was sponsored by the charity BRACE and focused on the Renin Angiotensin System (RAS) which is an important enzyme pathway ...

The effective blockade of angiotensin II effects may therefore ... These mechanisms demonstrate the pivotal role of the RAS and are believed to be major determinants in left ventricular remodeling ...
