MeSH definition : A heptapeptide formed from ANGIOTENSIN II after the removal of an amino acid at the
N-terminal by AMINOPEPTIDASE A. Angiotensin III has the same efficacy as ANGIOTENSIN
II in promoting ALDOSTERONE secretion and modifying renal blood flow, but less vasopressor
activity (about 40%).;
MeSH synonym : angiotensin ii, des-asp; des asp angiotensin ii; des aspartyl angiotensin ii; des-asp angiotensin ii; des-aspartyl-angiotensin ii;
MeSH CAS label : angiotensin II, 1-de-L-aspartic acid-;
