Abstract

Using the model of isolated perfused rat kidneys this study was performed to investigate whether or not voltage-operated calcium channels are essentially involved in the pressure control of renin secretion from the kidneys. At a perfusion pressure of 100 mm Hg (13.3 kPa) renin secretory rates were 4.2 +/- 0.7 (ng angiotensin I h-1) min-1 g-1. Stepwise reduction of renal perfusion pressure to 80, ...
