1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 is a negative endocrine regulator of the renin-angiotensin system
TL;DR: It is shown that renin expression and plasma angiotensin II production were increased severalfold in vitamin D receptor-null (VDR-null) mice, leading to hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy, and increased water intake, and 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) is a novel negative endocrine regulator of the renin-angiotens in system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac hypertrophy in vitamin D receptor knockout mice: role of the systemic and cardiac renin-angiotensin systems.
Wei Xiang,Juan Kong,Songcang Chen,Li Ping Cao,Guilin Qiao,Wei Zheng,Wenhua Liu,Xin-Min Li,David G. Gardner,Yan Chun Li +9 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that the cardiac hypertrophy seen in VDRKO mice is a consequence of activation of both the systemic and cardiac RAS and support the notion that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) regulates cardiac functions, at least in part, through the RAS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Caffeine alleviates acute liver injury by inducing the expression of NEDD4L and deceasing GRP78 level via ubiquitination
Xiangmin Li,Aimin Wang,Fangjie Zhang,Feng Zeng,Li Ping Cao,Hui Long,Ying-Hui Xiong,Ji Yan Xu,Jia Li +8 more
TL;DR: Caffeine protected liver cells against acute injury induced cell apoptosis and ERS both in vitro and in vivo and low dose of caffeine could be a promising therapeutic treatment for acute liver injury.
