Intriguingly, it responds in an opposite fashion to mediators of kidney injury (induced by gentamicin and aristolochic acid I; repressed by cisplatin and LPS), mediators of hypertension (induced by endothelin-1, vasopressin and norepinephrine; repressed by aldosterone and angiotensin II) and neurotransmitters (induced by CGRP and norepinephrine; repressed by acetylcholine). Here, AGT is linked to Hypertension.
