The afferent arteriole in this region contains specialised secretory cells (smooth muscle cells) called juxtaglomerular cells, that secrete renin. These cells do two things: 1  They monitor blood pressure, by measuring how much the arteriole wall is stretched.he afferent arteriole in this region contains specialised secretory cells (smooth muscle cells) called juxtaglomerular cells, that secrete renin. These cells do two things: 1  They monitor blood pressure, by measuring how much the arteriole wall is stretched.
The juxtaglomerular cells control pressure within the afferent and efferent arterioles by dilating or constricting them. In response to decreasing blood pressure (or blood loss), these cells produce the enzyme renin, which removes 10 amino acids from angiotensinogen.
