angiotensin ii (1 4), human tfa

Angiotensin II is a potent direct vasoconstrictor, causing arteries and veins to constrict, so leading to an increase in blood pressure.

Angiotensin II human TFA is a potent vasoconstrictor in the renin-angiotensin system that regulates blood pressure through interactions with AT1R and AT2R receptors. It activates sympathetic nerve activity, promotes aldosterone synthesis and renal function, induces proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells, and enhances type I and III collagen production in fibroblasts, leading to vascular and myocardial thickening and fibrosis. It also triggers apoptosis and promotes capillary formation, making it suitable for establishing models of cardiac hypertrophy, hypertension, and abdominal aortic aneurysm.
