The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) remains a cornerstone of cardiovascular and renal physiology, orchestrating vital aspects of blood pressure regulation and fluid-electrolyte balance. At the heart of ...
The renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) was initially thought to be fairly simple. However, this idea has been challenged following the development of RAAS blockers, including renin inhibitors ...
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), or renin-angiotensin-system (RAS) is a regulator of blood pressure and cardiovascular function. Dysregulated RAAS is implicated in high blood pressure, ...
Initial evidence of the existence of renin, which is an angiotensinogenase enzyme secreted by the kidney, was presented to the medical community more than 100 years ago. Nevertheless, the significance ...
Renin–angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors — including angiotensin-converting–enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin-receptor blockers (ARBs) — slow the progression of mild or moderate chronic kidney ...
