Atrial natriuretic peptide may inhibit motion sickness through reducing aldosterone-induced increase in endolymph volume of the inner ear. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Previous studies have suggested that aldosterone is potentially involved in the development of motion sickness and that atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) may inhibit it.

Salivary Aldosterone as a Biomarker for Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Diagnostic Performance and the Moderating Role of Mean Arterial Pressure—A Cross-Sectional Study [PDF]

open access: yesClocks & Sleep
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) dysregulation. This study examined the relationship between salivary aldosterone and OSA severity, identified predictors of salivary aldosterone, evaluated the ...

Aldosterone Decreases Vasopressin-Stimulated Water Reabsorption in Rat Inner Medullary Collecting Ducts

open access: yesCells, 2020
Aldosterone indirectly regulates water reabsorption in the distal tubule by regulating sodium reabsorption. However, the direct effect of aldosterone on vasopressin-regulated water and urea permeability in the rat inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD ...

Comparison of the Chemiluminescence Immunoassay LIAISON® with the Radioimmunoassay for Aldosterone and Renin Measurement

open access: yesPrague Medical Report, 2021
Determination of renin plasma levels is useful in the diagnosis of hypertension and in the therapeutic follow-up of hypertensive patients. Plasmatic concentration of renin decreases in patients with hypertension due to a primary hyperaldosteronism ...

G protein–coupled estrogen receptor: a promising therapeutic target for aldosterone-induced hypertension

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
Aldosterone is one of the most essential hormones synthesized by the adrenal gland because it regulates water and electrolyte balance. G protein–coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) is a newly discovered aldosterone receptor, which is proposed to mediate the

Pathology and gene mutations of aldosterone-producing lesions

open access: yesEndocrine Journal, 2023
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.
