Angiotensins in plasma of hypertensive rats and human

MK Sim, XS Qui - Regulatory peptides, 2003 - Elsevier
The plasma levels of des-aspartate-angiotensin I (DAA-I) in three models of hypertensive
rats and hypertensive subjects were determined and compared with their normotensive
controls. The rationale for the study was based on our earlier findings showing that DAA-I is
a physiological angiotensin peptide that is involved in the pathophysiology of the
cardiovascular system. The determination was carried out by the technique of capillary
electrophoresis. Plasma level of angiotensin I, angiotensin II, and angiotensin III was also …
