Role of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in sepsis and its therapeutic targets
An imbalance in the host's response to infection causes sepsis, a potentially fatal condition. Sepsis may advance to septic shock, organ dysfunction (including the brain, liver, lung, kidney, and heart), skeletal muscle atrophy, and an array of severe complications. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) undergoes significant alterations during sepsis, and the expression of its principal bioactive components is closely associated with the prognosis of patients with sepsis. Targeting RAAS may offer an effective approach to managing sepsis and its complications. Consequently, this review primarily summarizes the impact of sepsis on the activity and expression of key RAAS components in the circulation and tissues. We also discuss the effects and mechanisms of selectively modulating the RAAS in the context of sepsis and its associated complications. Furthermore, we introduce innovative perspectives on the precise regulation of the RAAS with the aim of optimizing treatment strategies tailored to different stages of sepsis and diverse complications.
期刊介绍:
International Immunopharmacology is the primary vehicle for the publication of original research papers pertinent to the overlapping areas of immunology, pharmacology, cytokine biology, immunotherapy, immunopathology and immunotoxicology. Review articles that encompass these subjects are also welcome.
The subject material appropriate for submission includes:
• Clinical studies employing immunotherapy of any type including the use of: bacterial and chemical agents; thymic hormones, interferon, lymphokines, etc., in transplantation and diseases such as cancer, immunodeficiency, chronic infection and allergic, inflammatory or autoimmune disorders.
• Studies on the mechanisms of action of these agents for specific parameters of immune competence as well as the overall clinical state.
• Pre-clinical animal studies and in vitro studies on mechanisms of action with immunopotentiators, immunomodulators, immunoadjuvants and other pharmacological agents active on cells participating in immune or allergic responses.
• Pharmacological compounds, microbial products and toxicological agents that affect the lymphoid system, and their mechanisms of action.
• Agents that activate genes or modify transcription and translation within the immune response.
• Substances activated, generated, or released through immunologic or related pathways that are pharmacologically active.
• Production, function and regulation of cytokines and their receptors.
• Classical pharmacological studies on the effects of chemokines and bioactive factors released during immunological reactions.
