Chronic stress and a high-fat diet are well-documented risk factors associated with the renin-angiotensin system in the development of breast cancer. The angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) is a novel component of the renin-angiotensin system. Several recent studies have focused on the function of AT1R in cell proliferation during cancer development. Thus, we hypothesized that angiotensin II (Ang Ⅱ) can promote proliferation of breast cancer via activated AT1R; the activation of AT1R may play… 
Inhibition of angiotensin II type 1 receptor by candesartan reduces tumor growth and ameliorates fibrosis in colorectal cancer
TLDR
Cedesartan, an inhibitor of the RAS, when used in combination with 5-FU reduced tumor growth by inhibiting fibrosis and inducing ROS production, supporting further clinical studies on this therapeutic approach for treatment of CRC.
The angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist telmisartan inhibits cell proliferation and tumor growth of esophageal adenocarcinoma via the AMPKα/mTOR pathway in vitro and in vivo
TLDR
In conclusion, telmisartan suppressed human EAC cell proliferation and tumor growth by inducing cell cycle arrest via the AMPK/mTOR pathway.
Angiotensin receptor blocker Losartan inhibits tumor growth of colorectal cancer
TLDR
The therapeutic potential of combining chemotherapeutic regimens with Losartan to synergistically enhance its activity and target the renin-angiotensin system as a new approach in colorectal cancer treatment is explored.
The roles of beta-adrenergic receptors in tumorigenesis and the possible use of beta-adrenergic blockers for cancer treatment: possible genetic and cell-signaling mechanisms
TLDR
Evidence that β-adrenergic blockade may play a beneficial role in cancer treatment is reviewed and additional investigations that examine β- adrenergic blockers as cancer therapeutics are required to further elucidate this role.

Inhibition of Angiotensin II Type I Pathway Reduced Tumor Growth and Ameliorates Fibrosis/inflammation Associated with Colorectal Cancer
TLDR
Valsartan may protect cells against intestinal fibrosis by modulation of profibrotic and pro-inflammatory components include fibronectin, Interleukin and Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 1 (MMP1).
Involvement of angiotensin II receptor type 1/NF-κB signaling in the development of endometriosis
TLDR
It is suggested that the increased activity of the AGTR1-NF-κB axis following the decreased exposure to estrogen may be important for the pathogenesis of EM and may be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of EM.
Angiotensin receptor blocker telmisartan inhibits cell proliferation and tumor growth of cholangiocarcinoma through cell cycle arrest
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is at an advanced stage at the time of its diagnosis, and developing a more effective treatment of CCA would be desirable. Angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor blocker (ARB),
