Background and Purpose Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a ubiquitous second messenger involved in human (patho‐)physiology. Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) is a major cGMP hydrolyzing enzyme in many cell types including vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Several highly selective PDE5 inhibitors are in clinical use. However, there are currently no

ClC‐2 Contributes to Hypotonicity‐Induced Adrenal Aldosterone Secretion [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aim The zona glomerulosa (ZG) of the adrenal cortex regulates blood pressure and electrolyte homeostasis through aldosterone production. In ZG cells, potassium and angiotensin II (Ang II) trigger calcium oscillations that drive aldosterone synthesis.
