56renal bp regulation: [blank_start]decreased[blank_end] arterial blood pressure causes [blank_start]renin[blank_end] release from kidneys. it enters the blood to catalyze [blank_start]angiotensinogen[blank_end] from liver to [blank_start]angiotensin I[blank_end]. it is then converted to [blank_start]angiotensin II[blank_end]. this stimulates [blank_start]aldosterone[blank_end] secretion which releases [blank_start]ADH[blank_end] from posterior pituitary to trigger the hypothalamic thirst center to drink more water.
