Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Renin release is typically stimulated by conditions that lead to reduced renal blood flow or perceived low blood volume/pressure, such as renal artery thrombus, vasospasm, circulatory shock, and increased sympathetic activity. Hypertension, on the other hand, would generally lead to decreased renin release as the body attempts to lower blood pressure.
