Renin and the Kidney

Abstract: The factors involved in renin release have been extensively evaluated. The primary determinants are the transmural pressure at the afferent arteriole, sodium delivery to the macula densa, and the activity of the adrenergic nervous system. Other possible factors include circulating catecholamines, the serum and cerebrospinal fluid sodium concentration, serum potassium concentration, angiotensin II concentration, and antidiuretic hormone release. There is no convincing evidence that the renin-angiotensin system … Show more

“…PRA in this disorder can be further stimulated by salt depletion or diuretic treatment and may be sup pressed by salt loading [21]. This is not generally the case for edematous states since patients with congestive heart failure may -despite marked variations of the reninangiotensin system -demonstrate a fall in PRA accom panying a sodium-restricted diet or diuretic treatment [1,22].…”
