Differential activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system in response to childhood and adulthood trauma

Previous evidence suggested lasting and cumulative effects of traumatization on the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS). However, it is unclear whether traumas during childhood and those experienced in adulthood differentially impact the RAAS. In this study, we sought to investigate main and putative interactive effects of childhood and adulthood trauma on RAAS functioning. Plasma concentrations of renin and aldosterone were measured in...
