Angiotensin II alters aortic fibronectin independently of hypertension.
We performed these studies to assess the potential role of hemodynamic forces in mediating the changes in aortic fibronectin mRNA expression that occur in the rat in response to angiotensin II administration. With the use of an acute hypertensive model involving a 3-day infusion with a pressor dose of angiotensin II given by osmotic minipump, a selective increase in fibronectin mRNA expression ...
متن کاملCrocin prevents acute angiotensin II-induced hypertension in anesthetized rats
Objective: Angiotensin II (Ang II), the main product of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has a well-known role in cardiovascular regulation. Over-production of Ang II is one of the important underlying mechanisms of hypertension. In this study, the effect of crocin on cardiovascular responses in rats with acute hypertension induced by Ang II was evaluated. Materials and methods: Rats were divided...
متن کاملIntrarenal angiotensin II augmentation in angiotensin II dependent hypertension.
In several models of angiotensin II (ANG II) dependent hypertension, intrarenal ANG II levels increase to a much greater extent than the circulating levels even though the renal renin levels are decreased. The 2-kidney-1-clip (2K1C) Goldblatt rat model is particularly intriguing because hypertension develops in the presence of an intact kidney which would be expected to maintain sodium balance ...
متن کاملInflammation, angiotensin II, and hypertension.
Inflammation, Angiotensin II, and Hypertension To the Editor: In a recent article, Liao et al1 used mice lacking the CC chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) to test the hypothesis that CCR2 activation plays an important role in the renal damage induced by angiotensin infusions. In their elegant article, it was also shown that CCR2 / mice and CCR2 / mice developed similar elevations of blood pressure des...
متن کاملAngiotensin II studies in hypertension.
F OLLOWING the production of experimental hypertension through the alteration of intrarenal hemodynamics by Goldblatt in 1934, investigators have identified, isolated, described, and synthesized the active pressor octapeptide angiotensin II.'-" Others have described the metabolism and distribution of extracted and synthetic angiotensin II and have also suggested that this peptide is implicated ...
