Aldosterone is a possible new stimulating factor for promoting vascular calcification
Background: Aldosterone is an important hormone in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), and playing a pivotal role in the development of hypertension, heart failure, and other cardiovascular diseases.

Pathology and gene mutations of aldosterone-producing lesions
The human adrenal cortex secretes aldosterone and cortisol as major corticosteroids. For their production, CYP11B2 and CYP11B1 catalyze the last steps in the syntheses of aldosterone and cortisol, respectively.

Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System Inhibitors and Risk of Covid-19
Background There is concern about the potential of an increased risk related to medications that act on the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system in patients exposed to coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19), because the viral receptor is angiotensin ...

Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System Blockers and the Risk of Covid-19
Background A potential association between the use of angiotensin-receptor blockers (ARBs) and angiotensin-converting–enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and the risk of coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) has not been well studied.
