20232302 Roson MI, Della Penna SL, Cao G, Gorzalczany S, Pandolfo M, Toblli JE, Fernandez BE: Different protective actions of losartan and tempol on the renal inflammatory response to acute sodium overload. J Cell Physiol. 2010 Mar 15.


Sprague-Dawley rats were infused for 2 h with isotonic saline solution (Control group) and with hypertonic saline solution alone (Na group), plus the AT1 receptor antagonist losartan (10 mg kg (-1) in bolus) (Na-Los group), or plus the superoxide dismutase mimetic tempol (0.5 mg min (-1) kg (-1)) (Na-Temp group).

Hepatology. 2010 Mar;51(3):942-52.


Angiotensin type 1 (AT1) receptor blockers attenuate liver fibrogenesis, yet their efficacy in reversing advanced fibrosis is unknown.

Exp Mol Pathol. 2009 Oct;87(2):141-5. Epub 2009 Jul 16.


Morphometric alpha SMA and TGF beta 1 analysis, and Masson's Trichrome staining were performed. mRNA levels of angiotensinogen, renin, ACE, AT1-R, AT2-R, TGF beta 1, BMP-7, Coll III, fibronectin and alpha SMA were analyzed by real-time RT/PCR.

AIM: Irbesartan, a new antagonist of the type 1 angiotensin II receptor, has been proven to be renal protective in both diabetic and non-diabetic nephropathy, but its exact mechanism is still uncertain.
