Published in 2019 at "JCI insight"

DOI: 10.1172/jci.insight.126703

Abstract: INTRODUCTION A local renin-angiotensin system exists in the pulmonary nodules of lymphangioleiomyomatosis patients. Sirolimus, the standard treatment for lymphangioleiomyomatosis, stabilizes lung function, but all patients do not respond to or tolerate sirolimus. As renin-angiotensin systems… read more here.
