"adrenalin"

hi
Renin is the right answer
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renin

This time we have the winner (marcusantoniu26, see in the comments section)

but I do understand that adrenalin (and catecholamine family) would seem as the right choice when we see the 1st clue for this contest.

renin is secreted in response to three stimuli one of which is
"Sympathetic nervous system activity, which also controls blood pressure, acting through the β1 adrenergic receptors."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renin

-> acting through the β1 adrenergic receptors
so I understand that could suggest that adrenalin might be the answer.

by b**** ****sure I meant "blood pressure". And I guess you got it too.

thanks for your interest/participation for/in the "Identify the molecule" league
