In this study the presence of cyclo-oxygenase-2, an enzyme producing prostaglandins, was demonstrated in macula densa cells and epithelial cells of the cortical thick ascending limb by in-situ hybridization and immunohistochemical techniques.

Endothelium derived relaxing factor, is demonstrated to be involved in the stimulation of renin synthesis induced by renal hypoperfusion.

Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 1995, 92:8006-8011. Endothelium derived relaxing factor, is identified as tonic stimulator of renin gene expression, the action of which is, under basal conditions, counteracted by Ang II.
