Endocrinology 150:2229-36. 2009..Endogenous aldosterone contributes to the acute stimulatory effect of Ang II on PAI-1 and ppET-1 mRNA expression in the heart; renin activity correlates with basal profibrotic gene expression in the kidney...
Angiotensin II induces interleukin-6 in humans through a mineralocorticoid receptor-dependent mechanismJames M Luther
Division of Clinical Pharmacology, Department of Medicine, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, TN 37232 6602, USA
Hypertension 48:1050-7. 2006..In contrast, angiotensin II-induced oxidative stress, as measured by F(2)-isoprostanes, is mineralocorticoid receptor independent and may be pressor dependent...
17Beta-estradiol increases basal but not bradykinin-stimulated release of active t-PA in young postmenopausal womenMias Pretorius
Department of Anesthesiology, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, Tenn, USA
Hypertension 51:1190-6. 2008..17Beta-estradiol increases basal release of active t-PA in young postmenopausal women, consistent with enhanced vascular fibrinolytic function...
Aldosterone antagonism or synthase inhibition reduces end-organ damage induced by treatment with angiotensin and high saltWilliam B Lea
Division of Clinical Pharmacology, Department of Medicine, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee 37232, USA
Kidney Int 75:936-44. 2009..Our study shows that mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism and aldosterone synthase inhibition similarly decrease hypertrophy and interstitial fibrosis of the kidney and heart caused by angiotensin II and high salt...

Department of Medicine and Pharmacology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37232-6602, USA
J Pharmacol Exp Ther 318:1287-92. 2006..By inhibiting thrombin-induced platelet aggregation without causing vasodilation, bradykinin 1-5 may provide a model for small molecule substrate-selective thrombin inhibitors...
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition increases basal vascular tissue plasminogen activator release in women but not in menMias Pretorius
Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Department of Anesthesiology, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, TN, USA
Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol 25:2435-40. 2005..Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition (ACEI) increases vascular tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) release through endogenous bradykinin (BK). We tested the hypothesis that gender influences the effect of ACEI on t-PA release...
