Abstract

The classic renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays an important role in the regulation of blood pressure and body fluid.Recently,major advance in the field of the RAS is the discovery of a complete local RAS in the brain.Brain RAS has all active components of RAS and it is involved in the brain functioning.Brain RAS develops from fetal period and it is easily disturbed by various factors.This review summarizes the articles about the functions and regulation of brain RAS in early development,in order to provide references for further research.
