The role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in angiogenesis is little known. Here, we
show that the angiotensin II (ATII) type 1 (AT1) receptor plays an important role in ischemia …

Objective—Angiotensin II is critically involved in left ventricular remodeling after myocardial
infarction. Neovascularization has been thought to prevent the development of left …

This study examined the potential role of angiotensin type 2 (AT2) receptor on angiogenesis
in a model of surgically induced hindlimb ischemia. Ischemia was produced by femoral …

ABSTRACT Angiotensin II (ANG II), a key regulator of blood pressure and body fluid
homeostasis, exerts mitogenic effects on endothelial cells. We therefore hypothesized that …

The angiotensin II (Ang II)-Ang II type 1 receptor pathway is proangiogenic, whereas studies
showed that some angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors also stimulate angiogenesis in …

Angiotensin II (Ang II) is a bioactive peptide that plays important roles in blood pressure
regulation and salt–water homeostasis. Recently, Ang II was reported to function in the …

The concept that angiotensin II exerts pro‐angiogenic activity is not universally accepted.
We evaluated whether inhibition of the renin‐angiotensin system (RAS) would influence …

Vascular injury and remodeling are common pathological sequelae of hypertension.
Previous studies have suggested that the renin-angiotensin system acting through the type 1 …

Background To investigate the effect of angiotensin (Ang) II type 1 receptor (AT1) blocker on
vascular remodeling and explore the possibility of the involvement of Ang II type 2 receptor …

Background: Ang II (angiotensin II) type 1 (AT1) receptors play a critical role in
cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension. Rodents have 2 types of AT1 receptor (AT1A …
