Acute Alteration of Plasma Renin Activity by Large Doses of Intravenous Prednisolone [PDF]

, 1972
Large doses of intravenous glucocorticoids have been used in an attempt to reverse homograft rejection. The intravenous administration of 1 g prednisolone over 1 hr resulted in a significant acute reduction of plasma renin activity in 5 normal subjects ...

Suspected primary hyperreninism in a cat with malignant renal sarcoma and global renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system upregulation

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2022
A 14‐year‐old male castrated domestic medium‐hair cat with diabetes mellitus was evaluated for vomiting, diarrhea, and anorexia. Two weeks before presentation, the cat had been diagnosed with congestive heart failure and started on furosemide.

Establishing a novel assay system for measuring renin concentration using cost effective recombinant ovine angiotensinogen

Heliyon, 2019
Background: Plasma renin can predict future cardiovascular events as well as the prevalence of chronic renal disease in hypertensive subjects. Ovine angiotensinogen (oANG) is a better substrate for measuring renin concentration through activity assay ...

Measurement of renin in both renal veins: its use in diagnosis of renovascular hypertension [PDF]

, 1967
THE RECENT development of a simple reliable method for measuring plasma renin activity, together with the availability of a safe procedure for obtaining samples of blood from both renal veins, has prompted us to assess the utility of such measurements in

A case of reninoma with variant angina

Kidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2014
Reninoma is a tumor of the renal juxtaglomerular cell apparatus that causes hypertension and hypokalemia because of hypersecretion of renin. We present a case of a 29-year-old female patient with reninoma and concomitant variant angina.

Effect of Cyclooxygenase(COX)-1 and COX-2 inhibition on furosemide-induced renal responses and isoform immunolocalization in the healthy cat kidney [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: The role of cyclooxygenase(COX)-1 and COX-2 in the saluretic and renin-angiotensin responses to loop diuretics in the cat is unknown. We propose in vivo characterisation of isoform roles in a furosemide model by administering non-steroidal ...

Rebound Rise in Renin Concentrations after Cessation of Salicylates [PDF]

, 1980
Salicylates are widely used in the treatment of rheumatic disorders, and they have been shown to induce minor changes in renal function. One of the major mechanisms of action of salicylates is the suppression of prostaglandin synthetase activity, and in ...

Diagnostic efficacy of chemiluminescence immunoassay versus radioimmunoassay in screening primary aldosteronism

Di-san junyi daxue xuebao, 2019
Objective To compare the sensitivity and specificity of chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) and radioimmunoassay (RIA) in detection of aldosterone and renin, and to explore the optional detection methods and indicators for screening primary ...
