SUMMARY

1. Stimuli: hypotension, volume depletion, increased sympathetic activity.

2. Receptors detecting change in ECF volume: baroreceptors or stretch receptors in the wall of the afferent arteriole, cardiac and arterial receptors, cells of macula densa in early distal tubule (stimulated by decrease in chloride).

3. Acute: renin released from granules.

4. Chronic stimuli: increased synthesis of pro-renin.

5. Renin levels increase with ACE-I and A-II receptor blockers.
