renin in English

noun
1
an enzyme secreted by and stored in the kidneys that promotes the production of the protein angiotensin.
The greatest cause is probably due to lower production of hormones such as renin , angiotensin and aldosterone, caused by the increased stress (these hormones assist the body in retaining fluid).
