General Notes
Mouse anti Human Angiotensin I, clone Ang E9, is specific for Angiotensin I and does not react with angiotensin II, III or angiotensinogen in ELISA. Angiotensin I is important in the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS). RAAS is responsible for the regulation of blood pressure and water retention in the body. Angiotensin I is produced from a reaction between the renal enzyme Renin and angiotensinogen. It is converted by Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) into a vasoactive form called Angiotensin II which is responsible for increasing blood pressure.
