Aging is associated with an imbalance in sympathetic and parasympathetic outflow to cardiovascular effector organs. This autonomic imbalance contributes to the decline in cardiovagal baroreceptor ...

The renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) is a hierarchical endocrine cascade that governs arterial pressure, vascular tone and sodium–water balance, thereby exerting profound influence on ...

Three large randomized trials tested a simple idea: if one blood-pressure drug that blocks the renin-angiotensin system ...

The argument was elegant in its simplicity. Patients with high levels of renin had a vasoconstriction type of hypertension that was driven primarily by the actions of the renin-angiotensin system on ...

Initial evidence of the existence of renin, which is an angiotensinogenase enzyme secreted by the kidney, was presented to the medical community more than 100 years ago. Nevertheless, the significance ...

THE role of the kidney in the regulation of blood pressure through the mediation of renin was first suggested by the classic experiments of Goldblatt. 1 Although there was considerable initial ...
