Descrição

Angiotensin II is a peptide hormone that may act as a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator. It is one of the most important vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting hormones produced by the renin-angiotensin system in mammals. Angiotensin II has been shown to stimulate cardiac contractility, increase vascular resistance, and regulate blood pressure. The effect of Angiotensin II on cardiac contractility is mediated through its binding to a response element in the promoter region of genes encoding for Ca2+ channels. This binding leads to increased Ca2+ influx into cardiac cells and increased myofibrillar Ca2+ sensitivity. Angiotensin II also activates reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, which causes injury to the renal tubular epithelium and induces tubulointerstitial injury in rats with diabetes. It also stimulates squamous cell carcinoma growth by inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and activating signal trans
