Abstract: An accumulating body of evidence suggests that renin-expressing cells have developed throughout evolution as a mechanism to preserve blood pressure and fluid volume homeostasis as well as to counteract a number of homeostatic and immunological… read more here.

Abstract: Introduction: Chronic stimulation of renin cells by long-term renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibition causes renal arteriolar hypertrophy, hyperinnervation, fibrosis, and perivascular immune cell infiltration. Our previous studies indicated these pathological changes are initiated by renin cells,… read more here.
