Plasma renin activity in acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis and the haemolytic-uraemic syndrome.
Plasma renin activity in acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis and the haemolytic-uraemic syndrome. Plasma renin activity (PRA) was determined in 10 children with acute glomerulonephritis and in 10 with the haemolytic-uraemic syndrome (HUS). Low renin levels were found in the hypertensive children with acute nephritis, all of whom had evidence of fluid overload. The amount of this overload...
متن کاملRenin excretion in patients with renal disease.
The renal handling of renin was studied in normal subjects and in patients with predominant tubular and glomerular damage. The renin in plasma and urine was assayed in the blood pressure preparation of the rat. Excessive renin excretion occurred only in patients with proximal tubular dysfunction and was not related to creatinine clearance, proteinuria or plasma renin levels. However, a signific...
متن کامل(Pro)renin receptor peptide inhibitor "handle-region" peptide does not affect hypertensive nephrosclerosis in Goldblatt rats.
The (pro)renin receptor [(P)RR], a new component the renin-angiotensin system, was cloned recently. The (P)RR promotes direct mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling and nonproteolytic prorenin activation. We investigated the role of a (P)RR blocker, a peptide consisting of 10 amino acids from the prorenin prosegment called the "handle-region" peptide (HRP), on target organ damage in renovas...

Renal scarring secondary to vesicourethral reflux is associated with an increased incidence of hypertension, which has been reported in up to 38% of children with reflux nephropathy. In this study the results of captopril test on 20 patients with reflux nephropathy(reflux+Scarring) were assessed within 8 months. For this purpose we studied the plasma renin activity and blood pressure r...
متن کاملRenin and acute renal failure: studies in man.
Plasma renin concentration was increased, usually appreciably, in 22 out of 25 patients with acute renal failure, the average value being 226 units/litre (mean for normal subjects 8.2 units/1.). The highest renin values were found in the first 10 days of the disease; lower and sometimes normal values were found subsequently. Unequivocal acute tubular necrosis was present in only two of the eigh...
