Juxtaglomerular cell tumor as a rare cause of hypertension in adults
(2004-03-01)
The juxtaglomerular cell tumor is a cause of secondary hypertension in adults. A 35-year-old female patient suffering from hypertension and low serum potassium had a 3 × 3 cm solid mass at the lower pole of left kidney ...

Malignant hypertension with intestinal ischemia secondary to juxtaglomerular cell tumor
(W B Saunders Co, 2005-11-01)
Malignant hypertension is a well-defined condition associated with high blood pressure and acute target-organ damage. Although 95% of cases are secondary to essential hypertension, its etiological profile is broad. ...
Renin synthesizing cells in the kidney and beyond
(2018-12-17)
O benefício do bloqueio do sistema Renina Angiotensina (RAS) em doenças cardiovasculares e renais é incontestável, mas o que ainda é controverso, é o grau ideal deste bloqueio. Um alto grau de bloqueio do RAS pode ter ...
Characterization of renin mRNA expression and enzyme activity in rat and mouse mesangial cells
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2002-01-01)
Renin is an enzyme involved in the stepwise generation of angiotensin II. Juxtaglomerular cells are the main source of plasma renin, but renin activity has been detected in other cell types. In the present study we evaluated ...
Unraveling the immune function of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) and aldosterone in animal models.
(2019)
Inflammation is a physiological response that could be triggered by endogenous and
exogenous stimulus. During inflammation the response is auto limited and regulated to keep
homeostasis, because uncontrolled response could ...
Urinary renin in patients and mice with diabetic kidney disease
(Lippincott Williams, 2019-07)
In patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD), plasma renin activity is usually decreased, but there is limited information on urinary renin and its origin. Urinary renin was evaluated in samples from patients with ...
