Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) in Renal Physiology

Explore the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and its role in renal physiology in this 17-minute video. Delve into the renin pathway and understand the intricate mechanisms of RAAS physiology. Learn about the key components of the system, including renin, angiotensin, and aldosterone, and how they interact to regulate blood pressure and fluid balance. Gain insights into the steps of the renin-angiotensin system, the function of angiotensin-converting enzyme, and the effects of angiotensin II. Discover how this complex physiological system impacts kidney function and overall cardiovascular health.
