What Happens if Catalytic Processes in the Kidney Fail?
Failure of catalytic processes in the kidney can lead to severe health issues. For example, insufficient activity of ACE can result in low blood pressure, while excessive activity can cause hypertension. Disruption in the catalytic breakdown of waste products can lead to a build-up of toxins in the blood, a condition known as uremia. These conditions highlight the necessity of efficient catalysis for kidney health.
