Renin Angiotensin Aldosteron System Diagram in Fluid Homeostasis

The following diagram shows the renin-angiotensin-aldosteron system (RAAS) which plays an important role in the regulation of fluid and electrolyte balance (sodium and volume homeostasis). Renin is an enzyme that cleaves angiotensinogen to form angiotensin I. It is converted to angiotensin II by the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Angiotensin II stimulates the synthesis and release of aldosteron, this aldosteron hormone increase the absorp…

Renin Angiotensin – Aldosteron Regulation System Diagram

thereninangiotensinsystemdiagram.png

The following diagram schemes the representation of the renin-angiotensin system showing its major components, the regulators of renin release and the primary effects of angiotensin II (AII) excluding the AII receptors. Renin may play a critical role in the pathogenesis of most hypertension. Complete review on Renin Angiotensin – Aldosteron Regulation System Diagram can be seen here (source: medind.nic.in). …
