Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) causes vasoconstriction and increases blood pressure. Renin is released by the kidneys to stimulate the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, which also increases blood pressure. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is released by the heart to promote vasodilation and decrease blood pressure. Estrogen and testosterone do not directly regulate blood pressure.
