Question

what is the difference between rennin and renin

Riffat Jahan · Accepted Answer

Rennin
Renin

Rennin is an enzyme secreted by gastric
glands
Renin is a hormone secreted by
kidneys

It digests protein caseinogen present in
milk into solid casein
It is produced by juxtaglomerular cells of
kidney when blood pressure falls It converts angiotensinogen in
blood to angiotensin I and further to angiotensin II Angiotensin
II, being a powerful vasoconstrictor, increases the glomerular
blood pressure and thereby GFR
