ALDOSTERONE

Advances in Physiology Education, 2002
Aldosterone plays a pivotal role in electrolyte and fluid homeostasis and thus control of blood pressure. The “classical” view of aldosterone action is that it targets epithelia of the distal colon and renal nephron to stimulate Na+(re)absorption and K+secretion.

Local aldosterone synthesis in the large intestine of mouse: An incubation study

Journal of International Medical Research, 2022
Objective To investigate the regulation of local aldosterone synthesis by physiological stimulants in the murine gut. Methods Male mice were fed for 14 days with normal, high (1.6%) or low (0.01%) sodium diets.

The Inositol- 1,4,5=Trisphosphate System Is Involved in Rapid Effects of Aldosterone in Human Mononuclear Leukocytes [PDF]

, 1993
There is increasing evidence for rapid steroid action on electrolyte transport in human mononuclear leukocytes (HML). In HML, aldosterone stimulates the Na+/H+ antiporter within a few minutes. Because a variety of hormones and growth factors activate the

The role of aldosterone and ideal cardiovascular health in incident diabetes: The Jackson Heart Study

American Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 2023
Background: Greater attainment of ideal cardiovascular health (ICH) and lower serum aldosterone are associated with lower diabetes risk. Higher levels of ICH are associated with lower aldosterone. The mediational role of aldosterone in the association of

Spironolactone treatment attenuates vascular dysfunction in type 2 diabetic mice by decreasing oxidative stress and restoring NO/GC signaling [PDF]

, 2015
Type 2 diabetes (DM2) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Aldosterone, which has pro-oxidative and pro-inflammatory effects in the cardiovascular system, is positively regulated in DM2.

Twenty-Four-Hour Urinary Aldosterone Predicts Inappropriate Left Ventricular Mass Index in Patients with Primary Aldosteronism

The Scientific World Journal, 2013
Objective. Primary aldosteronism (PA) is associated with inappropriate left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in relation to a given gender and body size. There is no ideal parameter to predict the presence of LVH or inappropriate LVH in patients with PA. We

Claudins in the Renal Collecting Duct [PDF]

, 2019
The renal collecting duct fine-tunes urinary composition, and thereby, coordinates key physiological processes, such as volume/blood pressure regulation, electrolyte-free water reabsorption, and acid-base homeostasis.

Alterations in vascular function in primary aldosteronism - a cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging study [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction: Excess aldosterone is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Aldosterone has a permissive effect on vascular fibrosis. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) allows study of vascular function by measuring aortic ...

Despite increasing aldosterone, elevated potassium is not necessary for activating aldosterone‐sensitive HSD2 neurons or sodium appetite

Physiological Reports, 2021
Restricting dietary sodium promotes sodium appetite in rats. Prolonged sodium restriction increases plasma potassium (pK), and elevated pK is largely responsible for a concurrent increase in aldosterone, which helps promote sodium appetite.
