<h4>Background</h4>The renin-angiotensin system is highly conserved across vertebrates, including zebrafish, which possess orthologous genes coding for renin-angiotensin system proteins, and specialized mural cells of the kidney arterioles, capable of synthesising and secreting renin.<h4>Methods</h4>We generated zebrafish with CRISPR-Cas9-targeted knockout of renin (<i>ren</i><sup>-/-</sup>) to investigate renin function in a low blood pressure environment. We used single-cell (10×) RNA sequenci ...[more]
