Evaluation of surgical response in renovascular hypertension using angiotensin II blockade. 1978

J A Buda, and L Baer, and S P Arora, and J Z Parra-Carrillo, and I Radichevich

The mechanisms involved in residual or recurrent hypertension following operation to correct renal artery stenosis were studied in 10 patients by performing angiotensin II blockade with Saralasin (Sarcosine, alanine, angiotensin II) before and after operation. Peripheral renin and renal vein renin determinations, angiography, and renography were done as well. The limitations of renin determinations are cited and the application of angiotensin II blockade as a specific method of detecting renin-dependent hypertension before and after operation are presented. Saralasin infusion under the controlled conditions of our study proved to be a sensitive method for detection of renin-dependent hypertension. The results of Saralasin infusion correlated closely with peripheral and renal vein renin determinations. Thus angiotensin II blockade before and after operation may supercede more invasive and less specific diagnostic methods.

D012083 Renin A highly specific (Leu-Leu) endopeptidase that generates ANGIOTENSIN I from its precursor ANGIOTENSINOGEN, leading to a cascade of reactions which elevate BLOOD PRESSURE and increase sodium retention by the kidney in the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN SYSTEM. The enzyme was formerly listed as EC 3.4.99.19.

D000804 Angiotensin II An octapeptide that is a potent but labile vasoconstrictor. It is produced from angiotensin I after the removal of two amino acids at the C-terminal by ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ENZYME. The amino acid in position 5 varies in different species. To block VASOCONSTRICTION and HYPERTENSION effect of angiotensin II, patients are often treated with ACE INHIBITORS or with ANGIOTENSIN II TYPE 1 RECEPTOR BLOCKERS.

D012504 Saralasin An octapeptide analog of angiotensin II (bovine) with amino acids 1 and 8 replaced with sarcosine and alanine, respectively.
