Renin
Renin is a monospecific enzyme that catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of angiotensin II. Amplified enzymatic activity and additional physiological effects occur when renin and pro-renin bind to the (pro)renin receptor. The classical site of renin expression and secretion is the renal juxtaglomerular cell, where its expression is tightly regulated by physiological cues.
Prorenin and renin bound to the (pro)renin receptor not only increase the catalytic conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin I (Ang I), but also upregulate the expression of profibrotic genes. Renin plays a critical role in the regulation of blood pressure, electrolyte homeostasis, mammalian renal development, and progression of fibrotic/hypertrophic diseases. Renin inhibitors represent an alternative to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) for the treatment of hypertension.

PRO20
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-P10933Purity: 99.16%PRO20 is a specific and competitive (pro)renin receptor (PRR) antagonist. PRO20 inhibits Prorenin-induced calcium influx with an IC50 value of 81 nmol/L. PRO20 exerts antihypertensive activity by blocking the binding of prorenin to the PRR, inhibiting the activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), and reducing the production of angiotensin II (Ang II). PRO20 is promising for research of antihypertensive agents.

Theasinensin C
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-N19420CAS No.: 89013-69-4Theasinensin C is an orally effective renin inhibitor and gut microbiota modulator, with an IC50 of 40.21 μM against renin activity. Theasinensin C selectively enriches Akkermansia muciniphila in the gut microbiota, enhances the Akkermansia muciniphila-mediated hydrolysis of the PTS domain of mucin, drives the accumulation of luminal glutamine and serine, and regulates the gut-kidney-liver glutamine/serine metabolic signaling pathway to promote creatine biosynthesis. Theasinensin C improves cognitive function, reduces pro-inflammatory cytokines, alleviates neuropathological changes and restores intestinal barrier integrity. Theasinensin C can be used in research related to hypertension and neuroinflammation induced by high-fructose diet.
