T70 |
55-194 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Normally, angiotensin I (Ang I) is converted to Ang II via angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which could be inhibited by ACE inhibitors. |
T71 |
195-276 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The pro-inflammatory effects of Ang II are mediated through AT1R in several ways: |
T72 |
277-762 |
Sentence |
denotes |
1) in the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal medulla, it stimulates aldosterone secretion and binding to mineralocorticoid receptors to promote water reabsorption and to increase salt retention; it is inhibited by mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs); 2) in the posterior pituitary, Ang II stimulates antidiuretic hormone secretion to promote water retention; and 3) in other tissues, it stimulates pathways responsible for hypertrophy, fibrosis, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. |
T73 |
763-868 |
Sentence |
denotes |
These effects are attenuated by angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), which block Ang II binding to AT1R. |
T74 |
869-1008 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Ang II can also be converted to angiotensin 1-7 (Ang 1-7) via ACE2, which stimulates the Mas receptor promoting anti-inflammatory benefits. |
T75 |
1009-1121 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The ACE2/Ang1-7/Mas axis acts as a counter regulatory pathway to the traditional renin-angiotensin system (RAS). |
T76 |
1122-1148 |
Sentence |
denotes |
AT1R and ACE2 are coupled. |
T77 |
1149-1227 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Ang II binding to AT1R allows dissociation of ACE2 and subsequent degradation. |
T78 |
1228-1330 |
Sentence |
denotes |
ARB prevents dissociation of ACE2 and renders it availability for unused Ang II conversion to Ang 1-7. |
T79 |
1331-1466 |
Sentence |
denotes |
ACE2 has been identified as the targeted receptor for both the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) 2 and SARS-CoV. |
T80 |
1467-1597 |
Sentence |
denotes |
ACE2 mediates S protein binding that stimulates viral entry into the host cytosol that results in infection and viral replication. |
T81 |
1598-1788 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Diversion of Ang II towards ACE2 could competitively inhibit viral binding and also counter regulate the adverse effects caused by AT1R and improve outcomes by Mas R−based favorable effects. |
