Abstract

It is now well-established that blood pressure control is exerted by the concerted action of hormonal, renal, vascular, and neural mechanisms and that a variety of substances differing in chemical nature are involved in the mediation of these effects. Peptides have been among the first implicated in considerations concerned with the pathogenesis of hypertension.
