A study of circadian variations of plasma renin activity in normal supine man.--The cosinor analysis has detected circadian rhythm of PRA in fifteen normal supine men, aged 21-28, studied over a 24-hour span. The acrophase occurs at 05.55 and it is consistent with the findings of the other authors.

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.
