Regulation of cell volume and water transport – An old fundamental role of the renin angiotensin aldosterone system components at the cellular level 2014-06-16 .txt text/plain 2794 129 38 The expression and the role of renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) components on regulation of cell volume and water transport on vertebrates and invertebrates were reviewed. Evidence is available that in mammals, there are local renin angiotensin systems in different organs including the heart, kidney and possibly in the brain in which RAAS components have been identified intracellularly (see 7, 11, 13, 10, 40 volume and water transport is an old event preserved throughout evolution. In mammalians, components of the renin angiotensin system have been detected in several tissues including the heart, adrenal gland, kidney and in the brain [9, 12, 19, 27, 37, 40] and many of the old properties of RAAS components as regulators of cell volume and water transport seen in invertebrates, are present in the mammalians. ./cache/cord-274259-voyzq05n.txt ./txt/cord-274259-voyzq05n.txt
