The anti-natriuretic factor is released to decrease blood pressure by inhibiting the release of renin from the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney. Hormone(ADH), anti-natriuretic factor (ANF) and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system(RAAS) regulate kidney functioning to maintain osmolarity, salt concentration and blood pressure.
