...Chin-Wei Kung; Yi-Chih Lin; Chi-Shin Tseng; Yu-Hsiang Chou Introduction: The blockade of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has a beneficial effect on reducing the levels of proteinuria and blood pressure in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and reduces the risk of developing end-stage...

...Sandra Hummelgaard; Kathrin Weyer The kidney proximal tubule is a major target tissue of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). Megalin is an endocytic multiligand receptor abundantly expressed in the proximal tubule where it drives reabsorption of peptides and proteins from the glomerular...

...Mei Mei; Zulian Zhou; Qian Zhang; Yi Chen; Hongwen Zhao; Bingbing Shen Studies on pharmacological mechanisms demonstrated that a strategy of dual renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade may have a synergistic effect in the treatment of cardiorenal diseases and may reduce adverse reactions. However...

...P. Heering; D. Wyes; J. Plum; B. Grabensee We studied the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) after amino acid loading in order to elucidate whether or not glomerular hyperfiltration is mediated by these hormones. Eight healthy controls without kidney disease (grop 1...

Our study indicates that hypertension in IgA nephropathy is primarily volume dependent, and that this increase in blood volume is not related to the deterioration of renal function. The role of the renin-angiotensin system in the maintenance of the hypertension is not well-defined...
