Abstract Angiotensin (Ang)-(1–7) is now recognized as a biologically active component of
the renin–angiotensin system (RAS). Ang-(1–7) appears to play a central role in the RAS …

In the past few years, the classical concept of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS) has
experienced substantial conceptual changes. The identification of: the renin/prorenin …

The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) has recently been extended by the addition of a novel
axis consisting of the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), the heptapeptide …

It is well known that the RAS (renin–angiotensin system) plays a key role in the modulation
of many functions in the body. AngII (angiotensin II) acting on AT1R (type 1 AngII receptor) …

The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is a key player in the control of the cardiovascular
system and hydroelectrolyte balance, with an influence on organs and functions throughout …

Angiotensin (Ang)‐(1–7) is now recognized as a biologically active component of the renin‐
angiotensin system (RAS). The discovery of the angiotensin‐converting enzyme homologue …

Recent studies have established a new regulatory axis in the renin–angiotensin system
(RAS). In this axis, angiotensin (Ang)-(1–7) is finally produced from Ang I or Ang II by the …

The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) is a key component of cardiovascular physiology and
homeostasis due to its influence on the regulation of electrolyte balance, blood pressure …

Angiotensin-(1-7)(Ang-(1-7)) is now considered to be a biologically active member of the
renin-angiotensin system. The functions of Ang-(1-7) are often opposite to those attributed to …

Ju-Young Moon, MD The activation of renin-angiotensin-aldosterine system (RAAS) is one
of the main pathogenesis of hypertension. All the components of RAAS are present in the …
