The intrarenal renin-angiotensin system: from physiology to the pathobiology of hypertension and kidney disease
In recent years, the focus of interest on the role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the
pathophysiology of hypertension and organ injury has changed to a major emphasis on the …

Regulation of intrarenal angiotensin II in hypertension
LG Navar, LM Harrison-Bernard, A Nishiyama… - …, 2002 - Am Heart Assoc
Intrarenal angiotensin II (Ang II) is regulated by several complex processes involving formation
from both systemically delivered and intrarenally formed substrate, as well as receptor-…

Immunohistochemical localization of ANG II AT1 receptor in adult rat kidney using a monoclonal antibody
LM Harrison-Bernard, LG Navar… - American Journal …, 1997 - journals.physiology.org
Molecular and functional studies have suggested that AT1 receptors are present in most
nephron segments, yet direct demonstration of AT1 at these sites is lacking. The present study …

Renal interstitial fluid concentrations of angiotensins I and II in anesthetized rats
A Nishiyama, DM Seth, LG Navar - Hypertension, 2002 - Am Heart Assoc
Previous studies have indicated that angiotensin II (Ang II) concentrations in renal interstitial
