Journal ArticleDOI

Pivotal role of the renin/prorenin receptor in angiotensin II production and cellular responses to renin

TL;DR: The expression cloning of the human renin receptor complementary DNA encoding a 350-amino acid protein with a single transmembrane domain and no homology with any known membrane protein is reported, the first described for an aspartyl protease.
Journal ArticleDOI

3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl Coenzyme A Reductase Inhibitors Increase Fibrinolytic Activity in Rat Aortic Endothelial Cells Role of Geranylgeranylation and Rho Proteins

TL;DR: HRI can modify the fibrinolytic potential of endothelial cells, likely via inhibition of geranylgeranylated Rho protein and disruption of the actin filaments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Aliskiren on Blood Pressure, Albuminuria, and (Pro)Renin Receptor Expression in Diabetic TG(mRen-2)27 Rats

TL;DR: The evidence that aliskiren can reduce in vivo gene expression for the (pro)renin receptor and that it may block prorenin-induced angiotensin generation supports the need for additional work to reveal the mechanism of the observed renoprotection by this renin inhibitor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Soluble Form of the (Pro)Renin Receptor Generated by Intracellular Cleavage by Furin Is Secreted in Plasma

TL;DR: Results show that s(P)RR is generated intracellularly by furin cleavage, and that the existence of circulating s( P)RR detected in plasma is able to bind renin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Specific receptor binding of renin on human mesangial cells in culture increases plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 antigen

TL;DR: It is shown that human mesangial cells in culture express a specific receptor for renin, and that the binding of renin increases 3H thymidine incorporation independently of renIn enzymatic activity.
