Abstract: Background Although urinary angiotensinogen (AGT) and renin reflect intrarenal renin-angiotensin system activity and are enhanced in proteinuric chronic kidney disease, the clinical value of urinary AGT and renin levels during antiproteinuric treatment has yet to… read more here.

The Urinary Angiotensinogen to Urinary Albumin Ratio Reflects Whether the Renin-angiotensin System in the Kidney Is Activated due to Filtration of Plasma Angiotensinogen through the Damaged Glomeruli or the Production of Angiotensinogen in the Proximal Tubules

Abstract: Objective Urinary angiotensinogen (AGT) is a surrogate marker for intrarenal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activity that plays an important role in the development of renal damage. Urinary AGT levels are determined by the filtration of plasma… read more here.
