    • ACE2 and vasoactive peptides: Novel players in cardiovascular/renal remodeling and hypertension 
      Mendoza Torres, Evelyn; Oyarzún, Alejandra; Mondaca Ruff, David; Azocar, Andrés; Chiong Lay, Mario; Castro, Pablo F.; Jalil Milad, Jorge; Lavandero González, Sergio; Ocaranza, María Paz (2015)
      The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) is a key component of cardiovascular physiology and homeostasis due to its influence on the regulation of electrolyte balance, blood pressure, vascular tone and cardiovascular remodeling. ...
    • Angiotensin-(1-9) reduces cardiovascular and renal inflammation in experimental renin-independent hypertension 
      González, Leticia; Novoa, Ulises; Moya, Jackeline; Gabrielli, Luigi; Jalil Milad, Jorge; García Nannig, Lorena; Chiong Lay, Mario; Lavandero González, Sergio; Ocaranza, María Paz (Elsevier Inc., 2018)
      © 2018 Elsevier Inc. Hypertension-induced cardiovascular and renal damage can be mediated by activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. There are different factors beyond renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system ...
    • Angiotensin-(1–9) prevents cardiomyocyte hypertrophy by controlling mitochondrial dynamics via miR-129-3p/PKIA ... 
      Sotomayor Flores, Cristian; Rivera Mejías, Pablo; Vásquez Trincado, César; López Crisosto, Camila; Morales, Pablo E.; Pennanen, Christian; Polakovicova, Iva; Aliaga Tobar, Víctor; García Nannig, Lorena; Roa, Juan Carlos; Rothermel, Beverly A.; Maracaja Coutinho, Vinicius; Ho-Xuan, Hung; Meister, Gunter; Chiong, Mario; Ocaranza, María Paz; Corvalán, Alejandro H.; Parra Ortiz, Valentina; Lavandero González, Sergio (2020)
      Angiotensin-(1-9) is a peptide from the noncanonical renin-angiotensin system with anti-hypertrophic effects in cardiomyocytes via an unknown mechanism. In the present study we aimed to elucidate it, basing us initially ...
    • Counter- regulatory renin–angiotensin system in cardiovascular disease 
      Ocaranza, María Paz; Riquelme Meléndez, Jaime; García Nannig, Lorena; Jalil, Jorge; Chiong Lay, Mario; Santos, Robson; Lavandero González, Sergio (Nature, 2020)
      The renin–angiotensin system is an important component of the cardiovascular system. Mounting evidence suggests that the metabolic products of angiotensin I and II — initially thought to be biologically inactive — have ...
    • Light-induced release of the cardioprotective peptide angiotensin-(1-9) from thermosensitive liposomes with ... 
      Bejarano, Julián; Rojas, Aldo; Ramírez Sagredo, Andrea; Riveros Salvatierra, Ana; Morales Zavala, Francisco; Flores, Yvo; Riquelme Meléndez, Jaime; Guzmán, Fanny; Araya, Eyleen; Chiong Lay, Mario; Ocaranza, María Paz; Morales Montecinos, Javier; Villamizar Sarmiento, María Gabriela; Sánchez Vergara, Gina; Lavandero González, Sergio; Kogan, Marcelo J. (Elsevier, 2020)
      Angiotensin-(1-9), a component of the non-canonical renin-angiotensin system, has a short half-life in blood. This peptide has shown to prevent and/or attenuate hypertension and cardiovascular remodeling. A controlled ...
    • Perindopril regulates β-agonist-induced cardiac apoptosis 
      Gálvez, Anita S.; Fiedler Temer, Jenny; Ocaranza, María Paz; Jalil Milad, Jorge; Lavandero González, Sergio; Díaz Araya, Guillermo (2005)
      Administration of the β-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol results in cardiac apoptosis, The effect of short-term β-adrenergic stimulation by isoproterenol on the activity of plasma, lung, and left ventricular (LV) angiotensin ...
    • Rho kinase cascade activation in circulating leukocytes in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 
      Ocaranza, María Paz; Valderas, Patricio; Moya, Jackeline; Gabrielli, Luigi; Godoy, Iván; Córdava, Samuel; Mac Nab, Paul; García Nannig, Lorena; Farías, Luis; Jalil, Jorge E. (BMC, 2020)
      BackgroundThe intracellular ROCK signaling pathway is an important modulator of blood pressure and of cardiovascular and renal remodeling when Rho-kinase activity is increased. Besides, in preclinical models of diabetes, ...
