It has been shown that the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays key roles in the development of fibrosis in numerous organs, including the liver. Other studies have suggested that the RAS also may play roles in diseases of chronic inflammation. However, whether the RAS also can mediate acute inflamm

We read with great interest the recent report by Li et al. 1 analyzing the correlation between the clusters of differentiation 24 (CD24) polymorphism and risk of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. In their study, the CD24 P170 T allele (thymidine at position 170) was correlated with a strong
It is generally accepted that hypertension and other vascular pathologies increase in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients as a result of the renin±angiotensin±aldosterone (RAA) system. In this study, changes in the renin-angiotensinaldosterone (RAA) system level was determined in Streptozotocin (STZ)-in
Background: The renin angiotensin system (RAS) promotes vasoconstriction. Expression of RAS is induced by different factors. Methods: In this study, forebrain sections of hamster brains were studied by immunohistochemical methods to determine the location of renin-positive and angiotensin II recepto
