Background: Podocyte injury contributes to progressive glomerulosclerosis. Previously, we demonstrated the important role of the NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in mediating the podocyte injury induced by aldosterone.

Role of ACTH and Other Hormones in the Regulation of Aldosterone Production in Primary Aldosteronism
The major physiological regulators of aldosterone production from the adrenal zona glomerulosa are potassium and angiotensin II; other acute regulators include adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and serotonin.
