As a recently identified bioactive peptide of brain renin-angiotensin system (RAS),
angiotensin-(1-7)[Ang-(1-7)] along with its metabolic enzyme angiotensin-converting …

Angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonists like losartan have been found to lower the
incidence and progression to Alzheimer's disease (AD), as well as rescue cognitive and …

Mid-life hypertension and cerebrovascular dysfunction are associated with increased risk of
later life dementia, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). The classical renin–angiotensin …

Here, we briefly review the role of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS) in cognitive
impairment and neurodegenerative disease, mainly discussing our experimental studies on …

Amyloid-β peptide deposition, abnormal hyperphosphorylation of tau, as well as
inflammation and vascular damage, are associated with the development of Alzheimer's …

The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) was initially considered to be part of the endocrine
system regulating water and electrolyte balance, systemic vascular resistance, blood …

Angiotensin II (AngII) receptor blockers that bind selectively AngII type 1 (AT1) receptors may
protect from Alzheimer's disease (AD). We studied the ability of the AT1 receptor antagonist …

Research indicates that certain antihypertensive medications alter Alzheimer's disease (AD)
biomarkers in Caucasians. The renin angiotensin system (RAS) regulates blood pressure …

The activation of the brain renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays a pivotal role in the
pathophysiology of cognition. While the brain RAS has been studied before in the context of …

The local renin–angiotensin system (RAS) in the brain is a multitasking system controlling a
plethora of essential functions such as neurogenic hypertension, baroreflexes, and …
