Answer 2

Lots of things. Most directly, an molecule called angiotensin does so. There are two different forms of angiotensin, one being more effective than the other. There's a class of antihypertensive drugs that work by inhibiting an enzyme called ACE that converts the less effective form into the more effective form, which is actually pretty cool: the -pril drugs do bupkis to blood pressure directly, but act on a molecule that acts on another molecule that changes blood pressure.
