Indicates NO suppresses renin from juxtaglomerular cells; extends cellular mechanisms but leaves open clinical translation.
Does nitric oxide (via sodium nitroprusside) reduce renin secretion in isolated juxtaglomerular granular cells?
Nitric oxide directly inhibits renin secretion from isolated juxtaglomerular granular cells via a cGMP-dependent mechanism.
Greenberg et al. (1995) studied this question.
