Renin.
by function is enzyme ... by structure is hormone
Renin is the enzyme released by juxtaglomerular cells. It plays a key role in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, which helps regulate blood pressure and fluid balance in the body.
Renin is an enzyme, not a hormone.
Renin is the enzyme that converts angiotensinogen into angiotensin I in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.
renin activates angiotensin in the blood
Renin is primarily synthesized and secreted by the juxtaglomerular cells in the kidneys. These cells are located in the afferent arterioles of the renal nephrons and play a key role in regulating blood pressure and fluid balance through the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.
Renin is a protein released by cells in your kidneys when you have low sodium levels. Renin increases the amount of angiotensinogenase increasing blood pressure and renin inhibitors are used to prevent increased blood pressure that can lead to a number of problems.
Renin is the enzyme secreted by the juxtaglomerular apparatus.
The renin stimulation test is performed to help diagnose and distinguish the two forms of hyperaldosteronism.
Renin is responsible for the activation of angiotensinogen into angiotensin I in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, which plays a key role in regulating blood pressure and fluid balance in the body.
Hypertension (high blood pressure) occurs in cases of excess renin.
