Renin Cells, the Kidney, and Hypertension.

Circulation research - 2 Apr 2021

Sequeira-Lopez Maria Luisa S, Gomez R Ariel

Abstract excerpt

Renin cells are essential for survival perfected throughout evolution to ensure normal development and defend the organism against a variety of homeostatic threats. During embryonic and early postnatal life, they are progenitors that participate in the morphogenesis of the renal arterial tree. In adult life, they are capable of regenerating injured glomeruli, control blood pressure, fluid-electrolyte balance,...
