1 2236972 The rats showed the following alterations after PA injection: a) a rise in serum angiotensin converting enzyme activity (ACEA) and plasma aldosterone (PAldo) at day 1; b) a rise in urinary aldosterone (UAaldoV), azotemia and sodium retention at day 2; c) massive proteinuria (UProt) and decrease in plasma angiotensinogen concentration (PAC) at day 4; d) increases in plasma renin activity (PRA), plasma renin concentration (PRC) and serum creatinine as well as hypoproteinemia, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, ascitis and edema at day 5; e) increase in urine volume at day 6.
2 16788142 TG(mRen2)27 (Ren2) transgenic rats overexpress the mouse renin gene, manifest hypertension, and exhibit increased tissue ANG II levels and oxidative stress.
3 18305124 Regarding potential mediators of these differences, offspring of diabetic mice had increased expression of intrarenal angiotensinogen and renin mRNA, upregulation of NF-kappaB isoforms p50 and p65, and activation of the NF-kappaB pathway.
4 19397686 Our findings implicate that local renin angiotensin system activation in podocytes is partly involved in down-regulation of nephrin by mesangial medium in IgA nephropathy.
5 20007350 Recent work suggests renin inhibition improves proteinuria comparable to ANG type 1 receptor (AT1R) blockade (ARB).
6 18216149 Exposure to high glucose resulted in a 2.1-fold increase ANG II levels mediated through increased renin activity, as exposure to high glucose increased renin levels and preincubation with Aliskiren abrogated glucose-induced ANG II production.
