Kim HY, Kim HS (2021) Sulfatase 1 mediates IL-10-induced dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase-1 expression and antiproliferative effects in vascular smooth muscle cells of spontaneously hypertensive rats. Cytokine 137:155344. doi: 10.1016/j.cyto.2020.155344 PMID: 33128921

Objective: To examine the effects of exSulfs on IL-10-induced dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase-1 (DDAH-1) expression, abrogation of Ang II-induced DDAH-1 downregulation, and inhibition of Ang II-induced proliferation of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). IL-10-induced DDAH-1 expression and abrogation of Ang II-induced DDAH-1 downregulation were attenuated in Sulf1 siRNA-transfected SHRs VSMC.

Summary: Sulf1, and not Sulf2, mediates the IL-10-induced inhibition of Ang II-induced hypertensive effects in SHRs VSMC.

Objective: To investigate the hypothesis that high fructose intake induces activation of the renin-angiotensin systems (RAS), resulting in hypertension and metabolic syndrome.

Summary: High fructose intake increased serum renin, Ang II, triglyceride, and cholesterol levels. High fructose intake increased the expression of angiotensinogen in the liver; angiotensin-converting enzyme in the lungs; and renin, angiotensin II type 1a receptor (AT1aR), and angiotensin II type 1b receptor (AT1bR) in the kidneys. High fructose intake induces activation of RAS, resulting in hypertension and metabolic syndrome.

Life Sci 252:117629. doi: 10.1016/j.lfs.2020.117629 PMID: 32247619

Objective: To analyze the prostatic compartments, extracellular matrix, microvascularization, transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) and angiotensin II receptors type 1 (AT1) levels, and histopathology of the ventral prostate in a rat model for rheumatoid arthritis, and to evaluate the effect of angiotensin II AT1 receptor blocker (ARB) in the disease.

Summary: AIA may activate specific mechanisms that modify the prostatic environment; the use of ARB attenuates some altered prostate parameters in a rat model for arthritis.

Objective: To investigate whether chronic disruption of cardiovascular control following experimental spinal cord injury (SCI) results in cerebrovascular decline and vascular cognitive impairment.

Summary: Chronic experimental SCI is associated with structural alteration and endothelial dysfunction in cerebral arteries that likely contributes to significantly reduced CBF and vascular cognitive impairment.

Objective: The role of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS) in the peri-implantation endometrium.

Summary: Altered vasculature of the endometrium in the peri-implantation period is detrimental to implantation and may lead to recurrent miscarriage. Being an angiogenic mediator, endometrial RAS may play a role around the time of embryo implantation, affecting subsequent pregnancy outcomes.
