2023年3月12日 · The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is a critical regulator of blood volume, electrolyte balance, and systemic vascular resistance. While the baroreceptor reflex responds in the short-term to decreased arterial pressure, the RAAS is responsible for acute and chronic alterations.

2023年3月12日 · The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is a critical regulator of blood volume, electrolyte balance, and systemic vascular resistance. While the baroreceptor reflex responds in the short-term to decreased arterial pressure, the RAAS is responsible for acute and chronic alterations.

2022年9月13日 · The renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) is a critical regulator of blood volume and systemic vascular resistance on a long-term basis. The baroreceptor reflex, on the other hand, responds in a short-term manner to decreased blood pressure.

2023年8月22日 · The Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) is a hormone system within the body that is essential for the regulation of blood pressure and fluid balance. The system is mainly comprised of the three hormones renin, angiotensin II, and aldosterone. Primarily it is regulated by the rate of renal blood flow.

2024年12月19日 · We explore the foundational research that has expanded our understanding of RAAS beyond its traditional scope, emphasizing the critical balance between the ACE/Ang II/AT1 axis and the protective ACE2/Ang 1–7/Mas axis.

2009年1月1日 · The renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) is a major hormonal cascade in the control of blood pressure (BP), hypertension and tissue damage. The primary means by which the RAAS contributes to acute changes in extracellular fluid volume and BP homeostasis is by adjusting the level of renin in the circulation.

There are four primary stimuli for the release of renin [20 - 22]: 1) Changes in renal perfusion perceived by the pressure transducer mechanism in afferent arterioles (sense stretch from the mechanoreceptors of the arteriolar wall); 2) Delivery of NaCl (sodium chloride) to the distal convoluted tubule that is sensed by the chemoreceptors in the ...

2024年1月17日 · In this review, we will cover the basics of the RAAS proteolytic cascade, its regulation by various stimuli, and the major effects of angiotensin 2 and aldosterone, with a specific focus on volume homeostasis and vascular resistance.

Renin acts to convert angiotensinogen into angiotensin I. Angiotensin I converts to angiotensin II in the lungs with the help of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Angiotensin II has three main effects. It stimulates: Angiotensin II acts on blood vessels, causing vasoconstriction.

Mechanism of action of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blocker on the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). The liver secretes angiotensinogen which is then converted to angiotensin 1 via the action of renin (1), which is released by the kidneys.
