==Mechanism of Action==


[[Renin]]is secreted by the kidney in response to decreases in blood volume and renal perfusion. [[Renin]]cleaves angiotensinogen to form the inactive decapeptide angiotensin I (Ang I). Ang I is converted to the active octapeptide angiotensin II (Ang II) by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and non-ACE pathways. Ang II is a powerful vasoconstrictor and leads to the release of catecholamines from the adrenal medulla and prejunctional nerve endings. It also promotes aldosterone secretion and sodium reabsorption. Together, these effects increase blood pressure. Ang II also inhibits [[Renin]]release, thus providing a negative feedback to the system. This cycle, from [[Renin]]through angiotensin to aldosterone and its associated negative feedback loop, is known as the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system ([[RAAS]]). Aliskiren is a direct [[Renin]]inhibitor, decreasing plasma [[Renin]]activity (PRA) and inhibiting the conversion of angiotensinogen to Ang I. Whether aliskiren affects other [[RAAS]] components, e.g., [[ACE]] or non-[[ACE]] pathways, is not known.
|hasBlackBoxWarning=
Yes


All agents that inhibit the RAAS, including [[Renin]]inhibitors, suppress the negative feedback loop, leading to a compensatory rise in plasma [[Renin]]concentration. When this rise occurs during treatment with ACE inhibitors and ARBs, the result is increased levels of PRA. During treatment with aliskiren, however, the effect of increased [[Renin]]levels is blocked so that PRA, Ang I and Ang II are all reduced, whether aliskiren is used as monotherapy or in combination with other antihypertensive agents.
