Hepcidin is potential regulator for renin activity.
An association between genetic variants in the genes HFE, HJV, BMP4 and arterial hypertension has been shown earlier. Proteins encoded by these genes participate in the signalling routes leading eventually to the production of the peptide hormone hepcidin. Mutations in these genes have been associat...
