Parent topics
- Renin-angiotensin system [r]: A blood pressure regulating system of interacting components that include renin; angiotensinogen; angiotensin converting enzyme; angiotensin I; angiotensin II; and angiotensinase. [e]
- Renin [r]: A highly specific (Leu-Leu) endopeptidase that generates angiotensin I from its precursor angiotensinogen, leading to a cascade of reactions which elevate blood pressure and increase sodium retention by the kidney in the renin-angiotensin system. [e]
- Angiotensin
- Angiotensin receptor [r]: Cell surface proteins that bind angiotensins and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. [e]
- Angiotensin II receptor antagonist [r]: Agents that antagonize angiotensin II type 1 receptor. Included are angiotensin II analogs such as saralasin and biphenylimidazoles such as losartan. Some are used as antihypertensive agents. [e]
- Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor [r]: Drugs mainly used to treat hypertension and heart failure, by hemodynamic effect inhibiting the renin-angiotensin system. [e]
- Standard genetic code [r]: Correlation between RNA codons and protein amino acids. [e]
- Peritonitis [r]: An inflammation of the peritoneum (the serous membrane which lines part of the abdominal cavity and some of the viscera it contains). [e]
