(Pro)renin, Erythropoietin, Vitamin D and Urodilatin Release From Human Donor Kidneys During Normothermic Machine Perfusion: Predictors of Early Post‐Transplant Outcome?

open access: yesClinical Transplantation, Volume 39, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Human donor kidneys release (pro)renin, erythropoietin (EPO), active vitamin D, and urodilatin during normothermic machine perfusion (NMP). However, whether the endocrine function of donor kidneys is associated with post‐transplant kidney function is unclear.

118. THE PRORENIN RECEPTOR/PLZF PATHWAY IN HUMAN AMNION

open access: yes, 2010
Prorenin, despite being inactive, is the major form of renin found in amniotic fluid and reproductive tissues. Prorenin becomes active if it binds to the novel prorenin receptor (ATP6AP2).

Plasma Soluble (Pro)renin Receptor Reflects Renal Damage.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Background(Pro)renin receptor [(P)RR], a specific receptor for renin and prorenin, was identified as a member of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). (P)RR is cleaved by furin, and soluble (P)RR [s(P)RR] is secreted into the extracellular space.

(Pro)renin Receptor Knockdown Attenuates Liver Fibrosis Through Inactivation of ERK/TGF-β1/SMAD3 PathwaySummary

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2021
Background & Aims: Activation of the (pro)renin receptor (PRR) up-regulates the expression of profibrotic genes in the kidney and heart. We aimed to investigate the role of PRR in hepatic fibrogenesis.

Effects of Vitamin D Supplementation on Blood Pressure in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: A Systematic Review of Clinical Trials

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Hypertension exacerbates cardiovascular risks in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), necessitating effective blood pressure (BP) management. Vitamin D deficiency is common in T1DM patients and is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Prorenin Accumulation and Activation in Human Endothelial Cells

open access: yes, 2001
—ACE inhibitors improve endothelial dysfunction, possibly by blocking endothelial angiotensin production. Prorenin, through its binding and activation by endothelial mannose 6-phosphate (M6P) receptors, may contribute to this production.

(Pro)renin Receptor in Kidney Development and Disease

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nephrology, 2011
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS), a key regulator of the blood pressure and fluid/electrolyte homeostasis, also plays a critical role in kidney development. All the components of the RAS are expressed in the developing metanephros.

Wnt signalosomes: What we know that we do not know

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 2, February 2025.
Wnt signaling occurs through a “signalosome” receptor complex, driven by oligomerization of the adaptor, Disheveled (Dvl). Both endocytosis and condensate formation have been proposed to mediate signalosome formation. Under pathological conditions, signalosomes may form in a Wnt ligand‐independent manner.
