Role of protein kinase C in inhibition of renin release caused by vasoconstrictors [PDF]

, 1986
It was the aim of the present study to get insight into some of the intracellular mechanisms by which the vasoconstrictor hormones angiotensin II (ANG II), arginine vasopressin (AVP), and norepinephrine (NE) inhibit renin release from renal ...

RAS-challenge as a first-look test for detection of primary aldosteronism in patients with treatment-resistant hypertension

Blood Pressure, 2023
Purpose Primary aldosteronism (PA), characterised by low-renin hypertension, confers a high cardiovascular risk and is the most common cause of secondary hypertension, with an increased prevalence in patients with treatment-resistant hypertension ...

Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and renin-aldosterone in volume regulation of patients with cirrhosis [PDF]

, 1989
The role of the atrial natriuretic factor and of the main counteracting sodium-retaining principle, the renin-aldosterone system, in acute volume regulation of cirrhosis of the liver has been investigated.

Acute Alteration of Plasma Renin Activity by Large Doses of Intravenous Prednisolone [PDF]

, 1972
Large doses of intravenous glucocorticoids have been used in an attempt to reverse homograft rejection. The intravenous administration of 1 g prednisolone over 1 hr resulted in a significant acute reduction of plasma renin activity in 5 normal subjects ...

Kidney Renin Release under Hypoxia and Its Potential Link with Nitric Oxide: A Narrative Review

Biomedicines, 2023
The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) and hypoxia have a complex interaction: RAS is activated under hypoxia and activated RAS aggravates hypoxia in reverse.

Association of Elevated Serum Aldosterone Concentrations in Pregnancy with Hypertension

Biomedicines, 2023
Emerging evidence indicates a previously unrecognized, clinically relevant spectrum of abnormal aldosterone secretion associated with hypertension severity. It is not known whether excess aldosterone secretion contributes to hypertension during pregnancy.
