Studies concerning the Site of Renin Formation in the Kidney
نویسندگان
چکیده
1. The administration of tartrate to adult rabbits was found to produce in some of them, a profound and widespread necrosis of the proximal convoluted tubular epithelium without affecting the other portions of the nephrons. 2. The markedly damaged kidneys were found to be almost completely devoid of pressor substance (renin), indicating that in the mammalian kidney, the epithelium of the proximal convoluted tubules is concerned in the formation or storage of renin.

Renin-angiotensin system and unilateral ureteral obstruction
Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) is a clinical scenario that leads to obstructive nephropathy. UUO alters the expression of many mediators in the ipsilateral kidney. Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is involved in UUO. Angiotensin II (Ang II) and angiotensin 1-7 (Ang 1-7) as the main arms of RAS influence kidney function which may alter by UUO. Ang II via Ang II receptor subtypes I (AT1R) ...

متن کاملStimulation of Aldosterone Secretion by Angiotensin II
The role of the renin-angiotensin system in renal hypertension has been investigated for many years but the relationship of the renin-angiotensin system to adrenocortical function has received less attention. In 1951, Deane and Masson,4 using the rat as an experimental animal, reported that encapsulation of the kidney, a procedure which results in hypertension presumably through release of reni...
متن کاملPredictive Modeling of Phenylpiperazine Derivatives for Renin Inhibition.
The renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system is the well established endocrine system having significant role in preserving hemodynamic stability. Renin is secreted from the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney. Phenylpiperazine derivatives have been reported as human renin inhibitor. To perform predictive QSAR modeling for 27 phenylpiperazine derivatives as renin enzyme inhibitors. The IC50 values ...
