Renin-angiotensin system Mechanism
Renin is released by the kidneys upon sensing ↓ BP and cleaves angiotensinogen to angiotensin I. Angiotensin I is then cleaved by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), primarily in the lung capillaries, to angiotensin II.
Actions of angiotensin II
1. Potent vasoconstriction 2. Release of aldosterone from the adrenal cortex 3. Release of ADH from posterior pituitary 4. Stimulates hypothalamus →↑ thirst
Overall, angiotensin II serves to
↑ intravascular volume and ↑ BP.
