Renal nerve effects on renin appear β1-dependent in rats; leaves open human relevance and need for clinical validation.
Renal nerve stimulation increases plasma renin activity and renin gene expression in rats, an effect mediated by beta 1-adrenoceptors.
Nakamura et al. (1994) studied this question.
