Descrizione generale

Renin, also known as angiotensinogenase, is an aspartyl protease that cleaves angiotensinogen to form angiotensin I, the initial and rate-limiting step of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). This system plays a critical role in the regulation of blood pressure and fluid balance. Increased renin activity can result in hypertension due to increased vasoconstriction and fluid retention. Inhibitors of renin can be used as a treatment for hypertension.[1]

Applicazioni

Renin Assay Kit has been used to determine the activity of renin.[2][3]

Compatibilità

The Renin Assay Kit provides a convenient and simple method for screening renin activity in a variety of samples or for screening renin inhibitors.

Principio

Renin activity is determined using a proprietary fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) peptide containing a fluorescence quencher. Cleavage of the peptide by renin results in the production of a fluorescent product (λex = 540/λem = 590 nm). This assay is ~50-fold more sensitive than the EDANS/DABCYL-based assay.

Hypertension (HTN) is a major risk factor for heart failure. We investigated the influence of HTN on cardiac contraction and relaxation in transgenic renin overexpressing rats (carrying mouse Ren-2 renin gene, mRen2, n = 6). Blood pressure (BP) was measured.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. Species that this assay works on?

    1 answer
    1. Although the standard that has been tested is recombinant human renin, theoretically the kit should be suitable for all other species.

      Helpful?

  2. Does the kit MAK157 contain any Renin inhibitor? If so, how much Renin inhibitor should be added, and at what step of the assay should it be added in order to determine the Renin activity?

    1 answer
    1. The kit MAK157 does not contain any Renin inhibitor. To confirm the activity using this kit, researchers can use a RENIN INHIBITOR separately.The amount of inhibitor to use and the step to use the Renin inhibitor can be referred to from published literature.

    Kit instructions misleading - be careful

    Kit provides you with 10mL assay buffer. At least 1.87mL needed for making standards. 5mL needed for making substrate. Leaves you with 3.13mL for diluting samples. If your samples need a lot of diluting this is insufficient. I did not find the customer service suggestion of using water to dilute my samples to be appropriate or helpful. They could instead just provide sufficient reagent. God help you if you want to run the assay twice, with two sets of standards, further depleting the assay buffer stock.
