High-fat diet amplifies renal renin angiotensin system expression, blood pressure elevation, and renal dysfunction caused by Ceacam1 null deletion.Siragy et al., Charlottesville, United States. In Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab, Dec 2015
At baseline under regular feeding conditions, Cc1(-/-) mice exhibited higher blood pressure, urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR), and renal expression of angiotensinogen, renin/prorenin, angiotensin-converting enzyme, (pro)renin receptor, angiotensin subtype AT1 receptor, angiotensin II, and elevated PI3K phosphorylation, as detected by p85α (Tyr(508)) immunostaining, inflammatory response, and the expression of collagen I and collagen III.
[Pathogenic mechanism of primary hypertension].Ichihara, In Nihon Rinsho, Nov 2015
Because the (pro)renin receptor is known to regulate the tissue renin-angiotensin system, brain (pro) renin receptor may be a novel therapeutic target for primary hypertension.
The Role of the (Pro)renin Receptor in Hypertensive Disease.Danser, Rotterdam, Netherlands. In Am J Hypertens, Oct 2015
The (pro)renin receptor ((P)RR), discovered in 2002, appeared a promising candidate, although its nanomolar affinity for renin/prorenin is many orders of magnitude above their levels in blood.
Role of non-classical renin-angiotensin system axis in renal fibrosis.Liu et al., Nanjing, China. In Front Physiol, 2014
The new members have added new dimensions to RAS, including the ACE2/Ang(1-7)/Mas receptor axis, the prorenin/(pro)renin receptor(PRR)/intracelluar pathway axis, and the Angiotensin A (Ang A), alamandine-Mas-related G protein coupled receptor D(MrgD) axis.
Newly recognized components of the renin-angiotensin system: potential roles in cardiovascular and renal regulation.Siragy et al., Charlottesville, United States. In Endocr Rev, 2003
Here, we discuss recent advances in our understanding of the components and actions of the RAS, including local tissue RASs, a renin receptor, ANG-converting enzyme-2, ANG (1-7), the function of the ANG type 2 receptor, and ANG receptor heterodimerization.
