Between-patient differences in the renal response to renin-angiotensin system intervention : clue to optimising renoprotective therapy?
Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) blockade with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-I) or angiotensin II (Ang II), AT1receptor blockers (ARB) is the cornerstone of renoprotective therapy. Still, the number of patients with end-stage renal disease is increasing worldwide, prompting the search for improved renoprotective strategies.In spite of proven efficacy at group level, the long-term renoprotective effect of RAAS blockade displays a marked between-patient heterogeneity, which is closely linked to between-patient differences in the intermediate parameters of blood pressur...
