Direct renin inhibition is a new means for blocking the renin–angiotensin system at the rate-limiting step of the cascade of events triggered by renin release—the interaction of renin with its ...
Introduction Physiology of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System and Its Pathophysiologic Role in Some Forms of Hypertension Renin in the Selection of Antihypertensive Drug Therapy Renin as a ...
Smooth muscle cells in the kidneys can produce renin to regulate low blood pressure Nine genes control renin production, allowing cells to "remember" when to produce it Renin switch could improve ...
November 16, 2009 (Orlando, Florida) — An analysis of the Heart Outcomes Prevention Evaluation (HOPE) study has potentially identified a new biomarker of renin angiotensin system (RAS) activation that ...
University of Virginia School of Medicine scientists have discovered how calcium activity in kidney cells regulates the production of renin, a hormone that raises blood pressure. The finding marks a ...
University of Virginia School of Medicine researchers have discovered how certain cells have the amazing ability to transform their function to help our bodies control our blood pressure. These cells ...
USA: A higher aldosterone-renin ratio (ARR), reflecting a broader spectrum of primary aldosteronism, is associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation and ischemic stroke in older adults, a ...
University of Virginia School of Medicine researchers have determined the location of natural blood-pressure barometers inside our bodies that have eluded scientists for more than 60 years. These ...
