Regulation of plasma aldosterone during hemodialysis

, 1990
In order to clarify the influence of serum potassium, serum sodium and plasma angiotensin II concentrations on aldosterone release during hemodialysis (HD), six chronic hemodialysis patients were studied during HD with varying dialysate sodium ...

Active renin versus plasma renin activity to define aldosterone-to-renin ratio for primary aldosteronism

, 2004
BACKGROUND: In recent years, the assessment of the plasma aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR) has become an established screening method for the diagnosis of primary aldosteronism.

The effects of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system gene polymorphisms on insulin resistance in hypertensive families

, 2014
Introduction: The hereditability of insulin resistance has been demonstrated in both familial and twin studies. The effects of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system gene polymorphisms on insulin resistance remain inconclusive.

Amiloride enhances the secretion but not the synthesis of renin in renal juxtaglomerular cells

, 1991
In this study we have examined a potential role of the sodium/proton exchange system in the regulation of renin secretion. We found that the inhibitors of the Na+/H+ antiport, amiloride (1 mM) and ethylisopropylamiloride (EIPA, 50 microM), led to a 125 ...

Renin-Angiotensin System Expression in the K562 Human Erythroleukaemic Cell Line

, 2007
Local renin-angiotensin system (RAS) may affect leukaemic cell production within the bone marrow microenvironment. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), renin, and angiotensin could influence leukaemogenesis.

A proximal direct repeat motif characterized as a negative regulatory element in the human renin gene [PDF]

, 2007
The regulation of renin gene expression is thought to be fundamental to regulation of the total renin-angiotensin system. The human renin gene contains a direct repeat (DR) motifAGGGGTCAC-AGGGCCA in the proximal region (-259/-245 bp), which contains ...

A comparative study on inter and intralaboratory reproducibility of renin measurement with a conventional enzymatic method and a new chemiluminescent assay of immunoreactive renin

, 2010
BACKGROUND: The activity of the renin-angiotensin system is usually evaluated as plasma renin activity (PRA, ngAI/ml per h) but the reproducibility of this enzymatic assay is notoriously scarce. We compared the inter and intralaboratory reproducibilities

Aldosterone-Mediated Sodium Retention Is Reflected by the Serum Sodium to Urinary Sodium to (Serum Potassium)² to Urinary Potassium (SUSPPUP) Index

Diagnostics, 2020
The serum sodium to urinary sodium ratio divided by the (serum potassium)2 to urinary potassium ratio (SUSPPUP formula) reflects aldosterone action.
