Specific Function
| Renin is a highly specific endopeptidase, whose only known function is to generate angiotensin I from angiotensinogen in the plasma, initiating a cascade of reactions that produce an elevation of blood pressure and increased sodium retention by the kidney. |
Pathways
|
- Diabetic cardiomyopathy
- Renin secretion
- Renin-angiotensin system
