NPY
vasodilators
bradykinin
natriuretic peptides (ANP & BNP)
VIP
CGRP
ANG II stimulates the release of
Aldosterone
ANG II effects
Vasoconstrictor
Stimulates aldosterone release
Increases peripheral vascular resistance
Causes renal sodium retention through aldosterone
Facilitates the release of norepi
Cardiac remodeling
