Olfactory receptor 78 modulates renin but not baseline blood pressure
Physiological Reports, 2021 Olfactory receptor 78 (Olfr78) is a G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) that is expressed in the juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) of the kidney as well as the peripheral vasculature, and is activated by gut microbial metabolites. We previously reported that

Angiotensinogen and the Modulation of Blood Pressure
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021 The angiotensin peptides that control blood pressure are released from the non-inhibitory plasma serpin, angiotensinogen, on cleavage of its extended N-terminal tail by the specific aspartyl-protease, renin. Angiotensinogen had previously been assumed to

Journal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2005 Renin is an aspartic protease that consists of 2 homologous lobes. The cleft in between contains the active site with 2 catalytic aspartic residues.1 Unlike other aspartic proteases such as pepsin or cathepsin D, renin is monospecific and only cleaves angiotensinogen, to generate angiotensin (Ang) I.

Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System Inhibitors and Risk of Covid-19
New England Journal of Medicine, 2020 Background There is concern about the potential of an increased risk related to medications that act on the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system in patients exposed to coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19), because the viral receptor is angiotensin ...
