Translations:Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosteron-System (RAAS)/8/en

It causes an increased aldosterone release from the adrenal cortex and this in turn causes an increased reabsorption of sodium and chloride ions and an increased excretion of potassium ions in the renal tubules. For osmotic reasons, more water is also reabsorbed, which leads to an increase in the volume of blood and thus additionally increases blood pressure.
