Abstract | ||||
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is considered to be an important component of the cardiovascular system due to its critical role in the cardiovascular physiology. However, under pathophysiological conditions, the effects of the RAS can intensify to trigger inflammation and structural remodeling, thus promoting cardiac and vascular damage. | ||||
