The relationship between kidney function and the soluble (pro)renin receptor in young adults: the African-PREDICT study [PDF]
High renin angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) activity is associated with target organ damage. Soluble (pro)renin receptor [s(P)RR] forms part of the RAAS cascade and is associated with kidney damage through both angiotensin II-dependent and ...

Inhibition of (Pro)renin Receptor-Mediated Oxidative Stress Alleviates Doxorubicin-Induced Heart Failure. [PDF]
Aim Clinical utility of doxorubicin (DOX) is limited by its cardiotoxic side effect, and the underlying mechanism still needs to be fully elucidated. This research aimed to examine the role of (pro)renin receptor (PRR) in DOX-induced heart failure (HF ...

Mutagenesis of the Cleavage Site of Pro Renin Receptor Abrogates Angiotensin II-Induced Hypertension in Mice. [PDF]
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. It is well demonstrated that activation of renal PRR ([pro]renin receptor) contributes to AngII (angiotensin II)-induced hypertension. Relatively, less is known for the function of sPRR (soluble PRR),

Soluble (pro)renin receptor (sPRR), the extracellular domain of (pro)renin receptor (PRR), is primarily generated by site-1 protease (S1P) and furin. It has been reported that sPRR functions as an important regulator of intrarenal renin contributing to ...

Assessment of the (Pro)renin Receptor Protein Expression in Organs [PDF]
The (pro)renin receptor ((P)RR) is an essential component of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS) as a specific single-pass transmembrane receptor for prorenin and renin and has now emerged as a multifunctional protein implicated in a wide variety of ...

Soluble (Pro)Renin Receptor as a Negative Regulator of NCC (Na+-Cl- Cotransporter) Activity. [PDF]
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. NCC (Na+-Cl− cotransporter), uniquely located at the distal convoluted tubule (DCT), is the target of thiazide diuretics and critically involved in renal handling of both Na+ and K+.

Renin, (pro)renin and receptor: an update
PRR [(pro)renin receptor] was named after its biological characteristics, namely the binding of renin and of its inactive precursor prorenin, that triggers intracellular signalling involving ERK (extracellular-signal-regulated kinase) 1/2.

Urinary soluble (pro)renin receptor excretion is associated with urine pH in humans. [PDF]
The (pro)renin receptor [(P)RR] binds to renin and its precursor prorenin to activate the tissue renin-angiotensin system. It is cleaved to generate soluble (P)RR and M8-9, a residual hydrophobic truncated protein.
