Evidence of augmented intrarenal angiotensinogen associated with glomerular swelling in gestational hypertension and pre-eclampsia: clinical implications.

Background-—AGT (angiotensinogen) synthesis occurs in renal proximal tubular epithelial cells, independent from systemic AGT, as a component of the intrarenal renin–angiotensin system. We investigated urinary AGT, as a biomarker for renin–angiotensin...

Responses of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in pregnant chronic kidney disease patients with and without superimposed pre-eclampsia (2019)
Journal Article
Kurlak, L. O., Broughton Pipkin, F., Mohaupt, M. G., & Mistry, H. D. (2019). Responses of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in pregnant chronic kidney disease patients with and without superimposed pre-eclampsia. Clinical Kidney Journal, 12(6), 847-854. https://doi.org/10.1093/ckj/sfz025

Background: Women with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk of superimposed preeclampsia (SPE). Accurate identification of SPE is challenging. We hypothesised that specific components of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS) w...
