1	2236972	The rats showed the following alterations after PA injection: a) a rise in serum angiotensin converting enzyme activity (ACEA) and plasma aldosterone (PAldo) at day 1; b) a rise in urinary aldosterone (UAaldoV), azotemia and sodium retention at day 2; c) massive proteinuria (UProt) and decrease in plasma angiotensinogen concentration (PAC) at day 4; d) increases in plasma renin activity (PRA), plasma renin concentration (PRC) and serum creatinine as well as hypoproteinemia, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, ascitis and edema at day 5; e) increase in urine volume at day 6.
2	2236972	These data suggest that: a) sodium retention was not a consequence of proteinuria or hypoproteinemia; b) sodium retention seems non-related to renin secretion, but may be partially mediated by a fall in glomerular filtration rate or by an increased tubular resabsorption secondary to other factors; c) the increase in PAldo, UAldoV and ACEA are non-related to renin secretion: all occurred before PRA rose; d) water retention, increase in PRA and PRC, hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia are secondary to the hypoproteinemia.
3	3097950	Angiotensin II, an inhibitor of renin release, depolarizes JG cells reversibly.
4	3515047	In addition, renin release from this preparation can be stimulated in a typical manner by isoproterenol and inhibited by angiotensin II, indicating that the receptors controling renin release and the secretory mechanism itself are still intact.
5	3515047	Inhibitors of renin secretion, e.g. angiotensin II, depolarize both cell types, whereas stimulators such as isoproterenol do not change the membrane potential.
6	9176840	Mouse glomerular epithelial cells in culture with features of podocytes in vivo express aminopeptidase A and angiotensinogen but not other components of the renin-angiotensin system.
7	9176840	By indirect immunofluorescence, the cells were positive for cytokeratin, vimentin, desmin, and the ZO-1 protein, a component of the tight junction complex.
8	9176840	The mRNA expression of several components of the renin-angiotensin system was also examined, and some factors indirectly coupled to the renin-angiotensin system component angiotensin II in this podocytic culture by RT-PCR analysis. mRNA Expression for the angiotensin II degrading hydrolase aminopeptidase A and angiotensinogen was found, but this was not found for any other component of this system, such as renin, angiotensin-converting enzyme, or the angiotensin II receptors AT1a, AT1b, and AT2.
9	9176840	In addition, expression of the growth factors transforming growth factor-beta and interleukin-7, and the extracellular matrix components fibronectin, laminin B2, perlecan, and collagen IV alpha 1, was observed.
