Upregulation of renin-angiotensin system and downregulation of kallikrein in obstructive nephropathy

The effects of prolonged unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) on the intrarenal renin-angiotensin and kallikrein-kinin systems in the rat were delineated in a study. Plasma angiotensin II overproduction and kinin deficiency in the pathogenesis of UUO-induced hypertension and intrarenal vasoconstric...

Zusammenfassung:The effects of prolonged unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) on the intrarenal renin-angiotensin and kallikrein-kinin systems in the rat were delineated in a study. Plasma angiotensin II overproduction and kinin deficiency in the pathogenesis of UUO-induced hypertension and intrarenal vasoconstriction were implicated by the results.
