RAAS, Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
The term RAAS stands for the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, which is not a single molecule or factor but rather a hormonal cascade involved in regulating blood pressure, fluid, and electrolyte balance.


Components of RAAS:
-Renin: An enzyme produced by the kidneys that initiates the cascade.
-Angiotensinogen: A liver-produced precursor protein that renin converts into angiotensin I.
-Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE): Converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II, the active peptide.
-Angiotensin II: A potent vasoconstrictor that also stimulates the secretion of aldosterone.
-Aldosterone: A hormone produced by the adrenal glands that increases sodium and water retention.

- Review, CardioV, NA - Review, AD, NA
*Inflam↓, allicin integrate a broad spectrum of properties (e.g., anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antibiotic, antifungal, antiparasitic, antioxidant, nephroprotective, neuroprotective, cardioprotective, and anti-tumoral activities, among others).
*antiOx↑, improving the antioxidant system
*neuroP↑,
*cardioP↑,
*AntiTum↑,
*mtDam↑, Indeed, the current evidence suggests that allicin improves mitochondrial function by enhancing the expression of HSP70 and NRF2, decreasing RAAS activation, and promoting mitochondrial fusion processes.
*HSP70/HSPA5↑, llicin improves mitochondrial function by enhancing the expression of HSP70 and decreasing RAAS activation
*NRF2↑,
*RAAS↓,
*cognitive↑, Allicin enhances the cognitive function of APP (amyloid precursor protein)/PS1 (presenilin 1) double transgenic mice by decreasing the expression levels of Aβ, oxidative stress, and improving mitochondrial function.
*SOD↑, positive effects on cognition in an AD mouse model by administrating a preventive dose of allicin. These effects might be mediated by an increase of SOD and reduction of ROS
*ROS↓,
*NRF2↑, Chronic treatment with allicin increased the expression of NRF2 and targeted downstream of NRF2, such as NADPH, quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), and γ-glutamyl cysteine synthetase (γ-GCS), in the hippocampus of aged mice
*ER Stress↓, protective effects of 16 weeks of allicin treatment in a rat model of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related cognitive deficits.
*neuroP↑, allicin was able to ameliorate depressive-like behaviors by decreasing neuroinflammation, oxidative stress iron aberrant accumulation,
*memory↑, allicin improved lead acetate-caused learning and memory deficits and decreased the ROS level
*TBARS↓, Oral administration of allicin was able to reduce thiobarbituric reactive substances (TBARS) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels, and concurrently increased (SOD) activity, glutathione S-transferase (GST) and glutathione (GSH) levels in a rat model of
*MPO↓,
*SOD↑,
*GSH↑,
*iNOS↓, decreasing the expression of iNOS and increased the phosphorylation of endothelial NOS (eNOS)
*p‑eNOS↑,
*HO-1↑, OSCs upregulate the endogenous antioxidant NRF2 and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)
