Arcuate Angiotensin II Increases Arterial Pressure via Coordinated Increases in Sympathetic Nerve Activity and Vasopressin Secretion

Zhigang Shi et al.

Summary: The study revealed that AngII acting through AT1aR in ArcN region triggers different sympathetic nerve activation responses in female and male rats, playing a crucial role in regulating arterial pressure and heart rate, with variations existing in different physiological states. The expression of AT1aR may indirectly mediate the regulatory effects of AngII on AP and SNA through local endogenous interneurons.

Cardiometabolic effects of DOCA-salt in male C57BL/6J mice are variably dependent on sodium and nonsodium components of diet

Chetan N. Patil et al.

Summary: This study investigates the interaction between environmental factors such as diet composition and sodium content and phenotype development in the DOCA-salt model. The results show that there is an interaction between diet and DOCA-salt treatment, affecting energy balance, fluid and electrolyte homeostasis, renal functions, and blood pressure. Interestingly, some phenotypes such as blood pressure and hydration are also dependent on nonsodium dietary components.

Melanocortin MC4R receptor is required for energy expenditure but not blood pressure effects of angiotensin II within the mouse brain

Vanessa Oliveira et al.

Summary: The brain renin-angiotensin system plays a role in the regulation of blood pressure, fluid intake, and energy expenditure. Leptin and angiotensin II in the brain stimulate energy expenditure through a shared mechanism. The metabolic effects of leptin depend on MC4R signaling.

Association of Serum Aldosterone and Plasma Renin Activity With Ambulatory Blood Pressure in African Americans The Jackson Heart Study

Joshua J. Joseph et al.

Summary: The study revealed that suppressed renin activity and higher aldosterone:renin ratios were associated with higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure in various settings. Higher aldosterone levels were linked to higher diastolic blood pressure but not systolic blood pressure in different monitoring periods.

Single-Cell Transcriptomic Reveals Dual and Multi-Transmitter Use in Neurons Across Metazoans

Clarisse Brunet Avalos et al.

Summary: Neurotransmitter expression is commonly used to classify neurons, but recent research suggests that one neuron may express multiple neurotransmitters, challenging the traditional notion. Single-cell transcriptomics provides insights into neurotransmitter coexpression in neurons across different animal species.

Vanessa Oliveira et al.

Summary: Obesity is the major obstacle to improving cardiovascular health, involving changes in energy balance control that may lead to hypertension. Drug development targeting metabolism often leads to hypertension, but new research suggests different subtypes of AGRP neurons may have varying effects on feeding, metabolism, or blood pressure control.

Integrated analysis of multimodal single-cell data

Yuhan Hao et al.

Summary: The study introduces a weighted-nearest neighbor analysis framework to learn the relative utility of each data type in each cell, enabling integrative analysis of multiple modalities. Applied to a CITE-seq dataset, the method constructs a multimodal reference atlas of the circulating immune system and successfully identifies and validates previously unreported lymphoid subpopulations.

The Arcuate Nucleus of the Hypothalamus and Metabolic Regulation: An Emerging Role for Renin-Angiotensin Pathways

Darren Mehay et al.

Summary: Obesity is a chronic state of energy imbalance that poses a major public health problem, leading to increased risk for hypertension, hyperglycemia, and metabolic syndrome. While the mechanisms and optimal treatment strategies for obesity are not fully understood, activating central neurocircuits may be key in finding new anti-obesity drugs.
