Renin-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 system and malignancy.
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is usually associated with its systemic action on cardiovascular homoeostasis. However, recent studies suggest that at a local tissue level, the RAS influences tumour growth. The potential of the RAS as a target for cancer treatment and the suggested underlying mechanisms of its paracrine effects are reviewed here. These include modulation of angiogenesis, cel...
متن کاملRenin Angiotensin System and Malignancy: a Mini Review
Cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide (World Health Organization). Therapeutic strategies usually involve a combination of surgical ablation, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Apart from conventional chemotherapy, targeting of the tumour vasculature by vascular disrupting agents or inhibitors of angiogenesis has also been used. Several antihypertensive agents have been used to reduce the ...
متن کاملRenin - Angiotensin - Aldosterone System
Chronic heart failure (CHF) is associated with endothelial dysfunction. Activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is believed to be important in the deterioration of endothelial dysfunction in CHF through stimulation of oxidative stress. Whereas angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-I) improve endothelial function in CHF, the effects of angiotensin II AT 1-receptor b...
