abstract：:Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) was studied for its effect on renin release by rat renal cortical slices. ANF (rat) alone (10(-9)-10(-6) M) had no effect on basal renin release, but significantly (P less than 0.001) potentiated angiotensin II (AII) inhibition of renin secretion in doses as low as 10(-9) M. ANF also po...
