Angiotensin II type-1 receptor autoantibodies and effects in neonates of women with preeclampsia.

BMC Pregnancy Childbirth

January 2025

Collection Biologique de L'Hôpital de La Mère Et de L'Enfant CB-HME (Mother and Child Biobank), University Hospital Center, 8 Avenue Dominique Larrey, Limoges, France.

Background: Maternal agonistic autoantibodies against the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1-AAs) have been implicated in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia, but their presence in their offsprings and their possible neonatal effects have not been specifically explored. This prospective study aimed to evaluate the presence of AT1-AAs and their potential clinical effects in neonates of AT1-AAs positive mothers.

Methods: Women with preeclampsia and their neonates were included.

Background: In patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), vascular endothelial dysfunction (VED) is the main reason for impaired life expectancy. Melatonin (MEL) demonstrates wide-ranging effects across various organs and exhibits pleiotropic characteristics. The current study aims to investigate the modulatory roles of MEL vascular response to angiotensin II (Ang II) and its receptors including angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT-1 R) and angiotensin type 2 receptor (AT-2 R) in isolated thoracic aorta of non-diabetes (non-DM) and diabetes (DM) rats.

Blockade of PVN neuromedin B receptor alleviates inflammation via the RAS/ROS/NF-κB pathway in spontaneously hypertensive rats.

Neuromedin B (NMB) has potentially great impacts on the development of cardiovascular diseases by promoting hypertensive and sympatho-excitation effects. However, studies regarding the NMB function in paraventricular nucleus (PVN) are lacking. With selective neuromedin B receptor (NMBR) antagonist, BIM-23127, we aim to determine whether the blockade of NMB function in PVN could alleviate central inflammation and attenuate hypertensive responses.

Utilizing data from the Vitamin C, Thiamine, and Steroids in Sepsis (VICTAS) Trial, this hub model was developed to limit seventeen Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) components as three entrance and four exits, to facilitate the calculation of a model as one egress unknown, the angiotensin type 1 (AT1) receptor. Following previous evidence relating renin levels to mortality, this study found controls were more like sepsis patients with levels < renin quartile 1 (Q1) for calculated AT1, while more like sepsis patients with renin levels > quartile 3 (Q4) for measured aldosterone levels. Additionally differential discrete correlate summation (DCS) analysis indicates AT1, aldosterone and renin as major hub nodes in this independent DCS model of metabolic data inputs.
