Beraprost Sodium, a Stable Analogue of PGI2, Inhibits the Renin-Angiotensin System in the Renal Tissues of Rats with Chronic Renal Failure

Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrate that BPS, a PGI2 analogue, inhibits the expression of key factors involved in the local RAS, resulting in a delay in the occurrence and development of CRF. The key findings of the present study ultimately highlight the potential of this PGI2 analogue as a promising therapeutic strategy for treating CRF.Kidney Blood Press Res 2018;43:1231 –1244
