3 Types of Angiotensin

All three compounds are small polypeptides…

1.) Angiotensin I weak biologic activity; precursor of angiotensin II

2.) Angiotensin II → strong biologic activity; precursor to angiotensin III

3.) Angiotensin III → moderate biologic activity; formed by degradation of angiotensin III

Angiotensin II

Precursor to angiotensin III with strong activity; promotes vasoconstriction and aldosterone release; may cause hypertrophy and remodeling of the heart
