Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists reduce inflammatory signaling independent of myofiber mineralocorticoid receptor [PDF]

Endocrine and Metabolic Science
Chronic inflammation is a feature of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a degenerative striated muscle disease. Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists (MRAs) have demonstrated clinical benefit on later onset DMD cardiomyopathy, and preclinical ...

Regulation of Klotho Production by Mineralocorticoid Receptor Signaling in Renal Cell Lines [PDF]

Biomolecules
Through the mineralocorticoid receptor, aldosterone controls extracellular volume and arterial blood pressure by stimulating Na+ absorption and K+ secretion in epithelial cells of the kidney, colon, and several glands.

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Blocker Prevents Mineralocorticoid Receptor–Mediated Inflammation by Modulating Transcriptional Activity of Mineralocorticoid Receptor–p65–Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 Complex [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) induces cardiac inflammation cooperatively with nuclear factor‐κB and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3); MR blockers exert anti‐inflammatory effects.

Mineralocorticoid receptor activation contributes to intestinal fibrosis through neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin in preclinical models [PDF]

Nature Communications
Intestinal fibrosis is a common complication in inflammatory bowel diseases with no specific therapy. Because mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism prevented inflammation and fibrosis in extra-intestinal organs, we aimed to evaluate mineralocorticoid ...

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonism Reduces Atrial Arrhythmias Post‐Cardiac Surgery and Attenuates Atrial Stress Responses to Cardioplegic Arrest [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Postoperative atrial fibrillation occurs in ~40% after cardiac surgery. Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) are known to reduce chronic atrial fibrillation (AF) development and burden.

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists: Efficacy and safety in chronic kidney disease [PDF]

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 3568-3581, May 2026.
Abstract The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) has a multifaceted role in normal physiologic functions. However, research has uncovered the deleterious consequences of overactivation of the MR. It has been implicated in chronic kidney disease (CKD) via its strong association with glomerulosclerosis, interstitial fibrosis, proteinuria, and decline in ...

Obesity, aldosterone excess, and mineralocorticoid receptor activation: Parallel or intersected circumstances? [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension
The obesity pandemic, with its associated comorbidities of hypertension and diabetes, constitutes a global public health issue. Importantly, there is an increasing prevalence of aldosterone excess related to obesity and resultant poor health outcomes ...

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists [PDF]

International Cardiovascular Forum Journal, 2019
Two mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, spironolactone and eplerenone, are currently approved by the FDA. Several non-steroid based ligands are in clinical trials for indications including heart failure, hypertension and diabetic kidney disease, and even more structurally distinct chemical series are reported in the literature with preclinical data

30 YEARS OF THE MINERALOCORTICOID RECEPTOR: Mineralocorticoid receptor mutations [PDF]

Journal of Endocrinology, 2017
Aldosterone and the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) are key elements for maintaining fluid and electrolyte homeostasis as well as regulation of blood pressure. Loss-of-function mutations of the MR are responsible for renal pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1), a rare disease of mineralocorticoid resistance presenting in the newborn with weight loss ...
