Renin (etymology and pronunciation), also known as an angiotensinogenase, is an aspartic protease protein and enzyme secreted by the kidneys that participates in the body's renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS)—also known as the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone axis—that increases the volume of extracellular fluid (blood plasma, lymph and interstitial fluid) and causes arterial vasoconstriction. Thus, it increases the body's mean arterial blood pressure. Renin is not commonly referred to as a hormone as well as enzymatic activity with which it hydrolyzes angiotensinogen to angiotensin . Renin is a central hormone in the control of blood pressure and various other physiological functions. So this article is focusing on Renin function with special reference to physiology.
