Suppression of aldosterone synthesis and secretion by ca(2+) channel antagonists.

International journal of endocrinology

Ikeda K, Isaka T, Fujioka K, Manome Y, Tojo K.
PMID: 23097668
Int J Endocrinol. 2012;2012:519467. doi: 10.1155/2012/519467. Epub 2012 Oct 11.

Aldosterone, a specific mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) agonist and a key player in the development of hypertension, is synthesized as a final product of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. Hypertension can be generally treated by negating the effects of angiotensin II through the...

Podocyturia: A Clue for the Rational Use of Amiloride in Alport Renal Disease.

Case reports in nephrology

Trimarchi H, Canzonieri R, Muryan A, Schiel A, Araoz A, Paulero M, Andrews J, Rengel T, Forrester M, Lombi F, Pomeranz V, Iriarte R, Zotta E.

No specific or efficient treatment exists for Alport syndrome, an X-linked hereditary disease caused by mutations in collagen type IV, a crucial component of the glomerular basement membrane. Kidney failure is usually a major complication of the disease, and...

Resistive index as a predictor of renal progression in patients with moderate renal dysfunction regardless of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin receptor antagonist medication.

Kidney research and clinical practice

Kim JH, Lee SM, Son YK, Kim SE, An WS.
PMID: 28392998
Kidney Res Clin Pract. 2017 Mar;36(1):58-67. doi: 10.23876/j.krcp.2017.36.1.58. Epub 2017 Mar 31.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have shown that a higher resistive index (RI) on renal duplex ultrasonography was related with renal progression and acute kidney injury, especially in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) using an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI)...

[First Experience of Clinical Application of LCZ696 an AT1-angiotensin Receptors and Neprilysin Inhibitor in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction].

Kardiologiia

Kobalava ZD, Pavlikova EP, Averkov OA, Merai I, Babaeva LA, Amirbegishvili IA, Kotovskaya YV, Moiseev VS.
PMID: 28294911
Kardiologiia. 2015 Jul;55(7):14-25.

Simultaneous inhibition of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and the system of degradation of natriuretic peptides can potentially provide unique therapeutic effects in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) with reduced ejection fraction (EF). Aim of this study was to assess...

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in a patient with pituitary adenoma and secondary adrenal insufficiency.

Indian journal of critical care medicine : peer-reviewed, official publication of Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine

Singh G, Manickam A, Sethuraman M, Rathod RC.
PMID: 26816449
Indian J Crit Care Med. 2015 Dec;19(12):731-4. doi: 10.4103/0972-5229.171410.

We describe a case of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in a case of pituitary macroadenoma in acute adrenal crisis. A 48-year-old man presented with acute onset altered sensorium, vomiting, and gasping. On admission, he was unresponsive and hemodynamically unstable. He was...

Vascular endothelial dysfunction and pharmacological treatment.

World journal of cardiology

Su JB.
PMID: 26635921
World J Cardiol. 2015 Nov 26;7(11):719-41. doi: 10.4330/wjc.v7.i11.719.

The endothelium exerts multiple actions involving regulation of vascular permeability and tone, coagulation and fibrinolysis, inflammatory and immunological reactions and cell growth. Alterations of one or more such actions may cause vascular endothelial dysfunction. Different risk factors such as...

Pharmacokinetic drug interactions with clopidogrel: updated review and risk management in combination therapy.

Therapeutics and clinical risk management

Wang ZY, Chen M, Zhu LL, Yu LS, Zeng S, Xiang MX, Zhou Q.
PMID: 25848291
