Telmisartan and losartan: marked differences in chemical and pharmacological properties may explain differences in therapeutic efficacy in hospitalized patients with COVID-19
El objetivo de este artículo es comparar las propiedades químicas y farmacológicas del telmisartán y el losartán, y su metabolito activo EXP3174, con el fin de entender por qué el telmisartán es efectivo en pacientes hospitalizados con Covid-19 mientras que el losartán no lo es. Se llevó a cabo ...
The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is implicated in the pathogenesis of several chronic diseases including diabetes. The interaction between RAGE and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) promotes gene expression, enhances the release of proinflammatory molecules and causes the gene...
SUMMARY: Reproductive dysfunction is a complication for many diseases and toxins. Its early diagnosis and treatment are immensely important. Here the morphological histoarchitecture changes in early testicular and cauda toxicity before and after treatment with angiotensin receptor blockers were evaluated...
It has been previously demonstrated that the hemodynamic effect induced by angiotensin II (AII) in the liver was completely abolished by losartan while glucose release was partially affected by losartan. Angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) and adrenergic (∝1- and β-) receptors (AR) belong to the G-pro...
Abstract Introduction: It is still unknown how the pharmacological inhibition of the Renin Angiotensin System (RAS) impacts the levels of inflammation and fibrosis biomarkers. Objective: This study sought to evaluate the effect of enalapril, candesartan and aliskiren on urinary levels of cytokines in a...
This study investigated the influence of antihypertensive drugs, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), AT1 receptor blockers (ARBs), voltage-gated L-type calcium channel blockers, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), on the effects of angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] on aor...
O Sistema renina-angiotensina (SRA) tem sido relatado como um importante modulador de processos inflamatórios e imunológicos, incluindo a doença periodontal (DP). Estudos sugerem neste sistema um eixo alternativo (ECA-2 /ANG(1-7) /MAS) que atuaria como um contra-regulador de efeitos mediados pelo clá...
La Enfermedad Periodontal (EP) es una condición inflamatoria progresiva que afecta los tejidos que soportan y rodean a los dientes. Las endotoxinas bacterianas como los lipopolisacáridos (LPS), inducen una cascada inflamatoria causando resorción ósea mediante la producción y modulación de la red de...
