Renin and prorenin have no direct effect on aldosterone synthesis in the human adrenocortical cell lines H295R and HAC15

Introduction: Transgenic rats expressing the human (pro)renin receptor (h(P)RR) have elevated plasma aldosterone levels despite unaltered levels, in plasma and adrenal, of renin and angiotensin II. Materials and methods: To investigate whether renin/prorenin–(P)RR interaction underlies these elevate...
