Hypothesis-generating for AC isoform-selective renin modulation; requires human validation before clinical consideration.
Does the knockout of adenylyl cyclases 5 and 6 reduce catecholamine-stimulated renin secretion in mice?
Both AC5 and AC6 are involved in the stimulation of renin secretion in vivo, with AC6 being the dominant isoform.
Aldehni et al. (2011) studied this question.
