The Renin-Angiotensin System Modulates Inflammatory Processes in Atherosclerosis: Evidence from Basic Research and Clinical Studies
Figure 2
Simplified view of renin-angiotensin pathway and its pharmacological inhibition. Renin inhibitors, ACE inhibitors, and ARB modulate angiotensin activities in inflammatory processes. A receptors, which are expressed in immune cells, have been shown to trigger inflammatory pathways.
