The Prorenin and (Pro)renin Receptor: New Players in the Brain Renin-Angiotensin System?
It is well known that the brain renin-angiotensin (RAS) system plays an essential role in the development of hypertension, mainly through the modulation of autonomic activities and vasopressin release. However, how the brain synthesizes angiotensin (Ang) II has been a debate for decades, largely due...
