Since the discovery of renin in 1898 and later the renin-angiotensin-aldostcronc system, there have been numerous studies on its effects and influences on physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms in different organs. The classical renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system pathway that begins with the release of renin from the kidneys, throughangiotensin-I, angiotensin-II and aldosteroneformation is a widely known concept that could now be described as incomplete. There is increasing evidence of the existence of a tissue renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system butit has been unsatisfactorily blocked with the blocking strategies known to dace. The objective of this paper is to address new knowledge about the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and new strategies for its blockageTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaDruštvo Medicinski razgledi
