method (Hana) 4. Maguire GA, Price CP: A continuous monitoring spectrophotometric method for the

Angiotensin I, Plasma
Clinical Information: Angiotensin I is a ten amino acid peptide formed by Renin cleavage of
Angiotensinogen (Renin Substrate). Angiotensin I has little biological activity except that high levels
can stimulate Catecholamine production. It is metabolized to its biologically active byproduct
Angiotensin II by Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE). The formation of Angiotensin I is controlled
by negative feedback of Angiotensin II and II on Renin release and by Aldosterone concentration.
Levels of Angiotensin I are increased in many types of hypertension. Angiotensin I levels are used to
determine Renin activity. Angiotensin I is excreted directly into the urine.
Reference Values:
Up to 25 pg/mL
This test was performed using a kit that has not been cleared or
approved by the FDA and is designated as research use only.
The analytic performance characteristics of this test have been
determined by Inter Science Institute. This test is not intended for
diagnosis or patient management decisions without confirmation
by other medically established means.

Angiotensin II, Plasma
Clinical Information: Angiotensin II is a eight amino acid peptide formed by Angiotensin
Converting Enzyme (ACE) cleavage of Angiotensin I. Angiotensin II is metabolized further to
Angiotensin III. Angiotensin II release is controlled by Renin, blood pressure, blood volume, sodium
balance and by Aldosterone concentration. Levels of Angiotensin II are increased in many types of
hypertension. Angiotensin II stimulates the release of Anti-Diuretic Hormone, ACTH, Prolactin,
Luteinizing Hormone, Oxytocin and Aldosterone. Angiotensin II increases vasoconstriction and inhibits
tubular resorption of sodium, and can increase endothelial cell growth.
Reference Values:
10-60 pg/mL
