Endothelial cells modulate renin secretion from isolated mouse juxtaglomerular cells [PDF]
Utilizing cocultures of mouse renal juxtaglomerular cells with bovine microvascular endothelial cells, we have examined whether endothelial cells exert direct influence on renin secretion from renal juxtaglomerular cells.

Plasma Angiotensin II Is Increased in Critical Coronavirus Disease 2019
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) employs angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as its receptor for cell entrance, and studies have suggested that upon viral binding, ACE2 catalytic activity could be inhibited; therefore ...

Stimulation of renin secretion by potassium-channel activation with cromakalim [PDF]
The cardiovascular and endocrine profile of cromakalim has been studied in 8 healthy men (age 25 +/- 2 years: means SEM) and its influence on renin release from cultured rat juxtaglomerular cells in vitro has also been examined.

Furosemide stimulates renin expression in the kidneys of salt-supplemented rats [PDF]
This study was conducted to obtain information about a possible influence of salt transport by the thick ascending limb of Henle (TALH) and the macula densa on the expression of renin in the kidney.

The effect of medication on the aldosterone‐to‐renin ratio. A critical review of the literature
The aldosterone‐to‐renin ratio (ARR) is a common screening test for primary aldosteronism in hypertensives. However, patients often use medications that could confound the ARR and, thereby, reduce the interpretability of the test.

The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system during haemodialysis with acetate or bicarbonate at different dialysate sodium concentrations [PDF]
The hormones of the renin angiotensin aldosterone system were measured during regular haemodialysis with acetate or bicarbonate at dialysate sodium concentrations of 135, 140, 145, and 150 mmol/l.

The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays an important role in regulating hypertension by controlling vasoconstriction and intravascular fluid volume. RAAS itself is largely regulated by the actions of renin (EC 3.4.23.15) and the angiotensin-
