AB The  renin-angiotensin  system  plays  a  central  role  in  the  regulation  of  fluid  balance  in  the  body.  Before  moving  on  to  the  drugs  that  interfere  in  this  system,  take  a  few  moments  to  review  the  physiology  (Figure  12–1).  Note  that  this  system  utilizes  the  kidney,  liver,  lungs,  and  adrenal  glands.  In  addition,  review  the  roles  for  renin,  angiotensinogen,  angiotensin  I,  and  angiotensin  II.  Who  does  what  and  where?
