Background

Angiotensinogen is a precursor of angiotensin II (Ang II), is expressed and synthesized largely in the liver and is cleaved by the enzyme renin in response to lowered blood pressure. AGT is an essential component of the RAS. AGT is cleaved by renin enzyme to produce angiotensin 1 (Ang I) when blood pressure is reduced, and AGT-converting enzyme (ACE) splits Ang I to generate angiotensin 2 (Ang II). RAS plays an important role in maintaining fluid and electrolyte homeostasis, and RAS irregulated expression leads to kidney disease, heart failure, hypertension, and diabetes.
