Familial hyperaldosteronism [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000 Aldosterone, the major circulating mineralocorticoid, participates in blood volume and serum potassium homeostasis. Primary aldosteronism is a disorder characterised by hypertension and hypokalaemia due to autonomous aldosterone secretion from the ...

Hyperaldosteronism in Mice Lacking the Distal Polybasic Tract of the γ-Subunit of the Epithelial Sodium Channel During Sodium Restriction. [PDF]
Acta Physiol (Oxf)ABSTRACT Aims The epithelial sodium channel ENaC consists of the subunits α, β, and γ and is activated at an individual channel level by proteolytic processing. Murine γENaC contains a distal polybasic tract 186RKRK mediating proteolytic ENaC activation by serine proteases in vitro.

Adrenal Venous Sampling for Subtype Diagnosis of Primary Hyperaldosteronism [PDF]
Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2021 Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is the key procedure for lateralization of primary hyperaldosteronism (PA) before surgery. Identification of the adrenal veins using computed tomography (CT) and intraoperative cortisol assay facilitates the success of ...

Primary hyperaldosteronism [PDF]
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2003 Primary hyperaldosteronism is an important cause of hypertension. Its true prevalence is still a matter of debate, since about 10% of hypertensives may have underlying hyperaldosteronism. Primary hyperaldosteronism is due to aldosterone-secreting tumours, bilateral adrenal hyperplasia or, rarely, adrenal carcinoma or genetic causes ...

Der Internist, 2021 Aldosterone is produced in the adrenal cortex and governs volume and electrolyte homeostasis. Hyperaldosteronism can occur either as primary aldosteronism (renin-independent) or secondary aldosteronism (renin-dependent). As the commonest cause of secondary hypertension, primary aldosteronism is associated with increased cardiovascular risk.
