The Promiscuous Mineralocorticoid Receptor [PDF]
Hypertension, 2016 See related article, pp 897–905 The article by Briet et al1 in this issue, “Aldosterone-induced vascular remodeling and endothelial dysfunction require functional angiotensin type 1a receptors,” represents a prodigious amount of work by the authors: it is not surprising that the first 3 are credited as having equally contributed. The authors build on

Crystal structure of the mineralocorticoid receptor DNA binding domain in complex with DNA.
PLoS ONE, 2014 The steroid hormone receptors regulate important physiological functions such as reproduction, metabolism, immunity, and electrolyte balance. Mutations within steroid receptors result in endocrine disorders and can often drive cancer formation and ...

PATIENT WITH CHRONIC HEART FAILURE. RATIONAL CHOICE OF THERAPY
Рациональная фармакотерапия в кардиологии, 2017 The theory of chronic hyperactivation of neurohormonal systems, in particular, sympathoadrenal and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone, is the basis of modern concepts of the pathogenesis of heart failure. The medicinal blocking of these two systems has proved

30 YEARS OF THE MINERALOCORTICOID RECEPTOR: Nongenomic effects via the mineralocorticoid receptor [PDF]
Journal of Endocrinology, 2017 The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) belongs to the steroid hormone receptor family and classically functions as a ligand-dependent transcription factor. It is involved in water-electrolyte homeostasis and blood pressure regulation but independent from these effects also furthers inflammation, fibrosis, hypertrophy and remodeling in cardiovascular ...

Antiapoptotic effects of velvet antler polypeptides on damaged neurons through the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis [PDF]
Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2020 We investigated the effects of velvet antler polypeptide on cognitive impairment and the underlying mechanisms. Hydrogen peroxide-induced cell injury was used to establish an in vitro model of SH-SY5Y cells.

The mineralocorticoid receptor and its coregulators [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Endocrinology, 2009 The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily and is essential for controlling sodium transport in epithelial tissues such as the kidney and colon. Moreover, it is also present in other non-epithelial tissues and is capable of activation by both mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids.
