Talk:Renin

message: I added the reference several years ago under a different user name.  I have updated it again.  This is the reference range used by the hospital laboratory system in Hamilton Ontario, Canada.Andrew.e.gibson (talk) 20:16, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

message: There should be some uniformity with the use of "Na" vs. "sodium"
Additionally, is it the plasma concentrations of NaCl which triggers renin or is it simply "Na" concentrations.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.177.3.51 (talk) 14:21, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

message: The introduction to this article is very confusing, and may be written in a little too technical a fashion. After reading it, I still have no idea what renin does.

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Renin's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "isbn1-4160-2328-3":
From Follicle-stimulating hormone: 
From Angiotensin: 
From Calcitonin: 
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 11:55, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

The study identified key genes, messenger RNAs and micro RNAs present in the kidneys that may contribute to human hypertension. It also uncovered two microRNAs that contribute to the regulation of renin -- a hormone long thought to play to part in controlling blood pressure.
Although scientists have long known that the kidneys play a role in regulating blood pressure, this is the first time that key genes involved in the process have been identified through a large, comprehensive gene expression analysis of the human kidneys. It is also the first time that researchers have identified miRNAs that control the expression of the hormone renin.

message: In the introduction section it says that renin is an enzyme but further down in the biochemistry and physiology section it is stated that it's a peptide hormone. A quick Google search results in similar confusing statements. So is it an enzyme or a hormone or both - or do these categories somehow not apply to this substance? 85.179.64.86 (talk) 21:59, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

message: This article says that "The RAS also acts on the CNS to increase water intake..." without defining RAS.  Should this be "RAAS" instead of "RAS"?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.196.131.196 (talk) 19:05, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
