Reninoma: An Occult Etiology of Hypertension Requiring Repeated Diagnostic Evaluation and Managed by Tumor Enucleation: A Case Report [PDF]
Clinical Case ReportsReninoma may be undetectable on initial imaging, and repeat diagnostic evaluation is essential when biochemical suspicion persists. Intraoperative ultrasonography can enable precise localization, allowing minimally invasive tumor enucleation instead of ...

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
