Effects of RAS-modulating ligands on TBI. Various ligands that act on receptors of the RAS and/or eRAS reduce sequelae of TBI in rodent models. Downward green arrows depict a ligand’s documented ability to reduce a particular sequela of TBI in rodents. Question marks depict unknown associations between a ligand and a particular sequela of TBI in rodents. eRAS: Extended renin-angiotensin system; RAS: renin-angiotensin system; TBI: traumatic brain injury.
