Description
Angiotensinogen is a precursor of angiotensin-1, 2, and 3; as a member of the serpin family, it is expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. In response to lowered blood pressure, renin cleaves Angiotensinogen and produces angiotensin-1 (1). Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) further removes a dipeptide to produce the physiologically active peptide angiotensin-2. Angiotensin-2 is involved in regulating mineral balance and volume of body fluids, while Angiotensin-3 stimulates aldosterone release (2). Defects in Angiotensinogen have been linked to renal tubular dygenesis (RTD) and susceptibility to essential hypertension (3).
