==Effects of Angiotensin II On Sodium==

* Induces insertion of Na⁺ channels into renal tubules via stimulation of AT₁ receptors

* Induces insertion of Na⁺ channels into renal tubules via stimulation of AT₁ receptors. These occur in:

* Proximal tubule:

*The proximal tubule, with the addition of:

** Apical - Na⁺/H⁺ exchangers

** Apical - Na⁺/H⁺ exchangers

** Basolateral Na⁺(HCO₃^-)₃ and Na⁺K⁺ATPase

** Basolateral Na⁺(HCO₃^-)₃ and Na⁺K⁺ATPase

* Thick ascending limb

*The thick ascending limb, with the addition of:

** Apical Na⁺/H⁺ exchangers and Na⁺K⁺2Cl^- symporter

** Apical Na⁺/H⁺ exchangers and Na⁺K⁺2Cl^- symporter

* Collecting Duct

*The collecting ducts, with the addition of:

** Epithelial Na⁺ channel

** Epithelial Na⁺ channels

* Also stimulates '''Aldosterone'''

 

Angiotensin II also stimulates the release of '''Aldosterone'''.
