Although we did identify a relationship between arterial hypotension and circulating Ang II after the first day of severe sepsis, the modest statistical significance and lack of a similar relationship between hypotension and PRA (a biologic precursor to Ang II) temper our enthusiasm to declare arterial pressure a dominant factor leading to persistent RAS activation during sepsis. | |||||||||||||||

|
We note that the levels of PRA and Ang II measured in our septic subjects are elevated nearly two-fold compared to outpatients with risk factors for vascular disease [33,34], arguing that the acute septic state contributes to RAS activation. | |||||||||||||||

We report here using Northern blot analysis with these cDNA probes that noxious stimulation causes a marked and coincident increase in rap 1A, rap 1B and H-ras mRNAs in the rat spinal cord. | |||||||||||||||

|
Inactivation of the APC tumour-suppressor gene, and the activation of K-ras, have a combined effect on increasing tissue polyamine contents due to increased synthesis and decreased catabolism of the polyamines. | |||||||||||||||

In contrast, transfection of HeLa cells with anti-sense let-7 molecules reduced the expression of let-7 and in turn, allowed for an approximately 70% increase in RAS levels [66]. | |||||||||||||||
