Calcium and renin release: inhibition of low sodium-induced renin secretion by high calcium concentration in rat kidney perfusion. 1982

The effects of changes in calcium on renin secretion have been studied in the isolated perfused rat kidney. Perfusion with free calcium buffer significantly decreases renin secretion as compared with control experiments (Ca++: 2.5 mM/l). Other calcium concentrations (1.25 mM/l) and 5 mM/l) do not affect basal renin secretion. When the renin release is previously increased by low sodium concentration (Na+: 110 mM/l) however, perfusion with high calcium buffer (Ca++: 5 mM/l) significantly inhibits this stimulation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007606 Juxtaglomerular Apparatus A complex of cells consisting of juxtaglomerular cells, extraglomerular mesangium lacis cells, the macula densa of the distal convoluted tubule, and granular epithelial peripolar cells. Juxtaglomerular cells are modified SMOOTH MUSCLE CELLS found in the walls of afferent glomerular arterioles and sometimes the efferent arterioles. Extraglomerular mesangium lacis cells are located in the angle between the afferent and efferent glomerular arterioles. Granular epithelial peripolar cells are located at the angle of reflection of the parietal to visceral angle of the renal corpuscle. Apparatus, Juxtaglomerular

D012083 Renin A highly specific (Leu-Leu) endopeptidase that generates ANGIOTENSIN I from its precursor ANGIOTENSINOGEN, leading to a cascade of reactions which elevate BLOOD PRESSURE and increase sodium retention by the kidney in the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN SYSTEM. The enzyme was formerly listed as EC 3.4.99.19.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
