High blood pressure is dangerous, partly because there are no symptoms, so organ damage can occur slowly without being recognized. Renal hypertension can cause chronic kidney disease. This is a slow decline in kidney function. Until the condition is well advanced, chronic kidney disease also causes no symptoms. Because there are usually no symptoms, a doctor may suspect renal hypertension when someone has uncontrolled high blood pressure despite multiple medications or has unexplained chronic kidney disease.
The function of renin affects kidney filtration balances. An increase in renin levels may result in increased thirst. Some anti-hypertensive drugs are based on a renin-angiotensin system.Some research suggests that the long-term use of anti-hypertensive drugs could actually increase the body's production of renin.he function of renin is to restore normal blood pressure, thereby increasing filtration rates of water and solutes in the kidney tubules, so that filtration proceeds in proper balance.
