The effects of dopamine on renin release in the isolated perfused rat kidney.
In the isolated and perfused kidney of the rat, the stimulant effect of dopamine on renin release is blocked by propranolol and not by haloperidol. This suggests that the release of renin induced by dopamine is due to the activation of beta-receptors.
