Overview

Hypothesis-generating for prorenin as kidney renin precursor; leaves open its relation to plasma forms.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Human kidney cortex extract
I
Intervention
Extraction in low ionic strength buffer with protease inhibitors
C
Comparator
Extraction without protease inhibitors, multiple freeze-thaw cycles, or acidification to pH 2.8
O
Outcome
Apparent molecular weight/size of reninsurrogate

The identification of a 58,000-dalton form of renin in human kidney cortex suggests it may be a biosynthetic precursor to the smaller circulating plasma renin.
