Captopril challenge test in the diagnosis of primary aldosteronism: consistency between 1- and 2- h sampling

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
ObjectiveTo examine the consistency of plasma aldosterone concentration at 1 and 2 h in the captopril challenge test (CCT) and to explore the possibility of replacing 2-h aldosterone concentration with 1-h aldosterone concentration for diagnosis of ...

Inhibition of NPC Intracellular Cholesterol Transporter 1 Dually Regulates Aldosterone Secretion Via the Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory‐Related Lipid Transfer Domain‐3‐Voltage‐Dependent Anion Channel 1 Axis and Inositol 1,4,5‐Trisphosphate Receptor Type 3‐Calcium Signaling

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Aldosterone‐producing adenomas, a prevalent cause of endocrine hypertension, arise from uncontrolled aldosterone production. NPC1 (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1) is a cholesterol transporter located on the lysosomal limiting ...

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

open access: yesPhysiological 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.

Contemporary management of pain in cirrhosis: Toward precision therapy for pain

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Chronic pain is highly prevalent in patients with cirrhosis and is associated with poor health‐related quality of life and poor functional status. However, there is limited guidance on appropriate pain management in this population, and pharmacologic treatment can be harmful, leading to adverse outcomes, such as gastrointestinal bleeding ...

Extramitochondrial OPA1 and adrenocortical function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We have previously described that silencing of the mitochondrial protein OPA1 enhances mitochondrial 27 Ca2+ signaling and aldosterone production in H295R adrenocortical cells.

HYPER‐RESPONSIVENESS OF ALDOSTERONE TO METOCLOPRAMIDE IN ALDOSTERONISM [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, 1982
Metoclopramide, a dopamine antagonist, stimulates aldosterone secretion in normal man. We studied the response of plasma aldosterone, plasma renin activity, cortisol, sodium, potassium and serum prolactin to a 10‐mg intravenous dose of metoclopramide in six dexamethasone suppressed patients with aldosteronism (four with adrenal adenoma, two with ...

Distal renal tubules are deficient in aggresome formation and autophagy upon aldosterone administration.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Prolonged elevations of plasma aldosterone levels are associated with renal pathogenesis. We hypothesized that renal distress could be imposed by an augmented aldosterone-induced protein turnover challenging cellular protein degradation systems of the ...

Aldosterone-Induced Hypertension is Sex-Dependent, Mediated by T Cells and Sensitive to GPER Activation

open access: yes, 2021
Aims: The G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER) may modulate some effects of aldosterone. In addition, G-1 (a GPER agonist) can lower blood pressure (BP) and promote T cell-mediated anti-inflammatory responses. This study aimed to test the effects

Possible Underlying Mechanisms Responsible for Aldosterone and Mineralocorticoid Receptor–Dependent Renal Injury

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
There is increasing evidence indicating the roles of aldosterone and mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) in the pathogenesis of renal injury. In rats, chronic treatment with aldosterone and salt results in severe proteinuria and renal tissue injury ...
