Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists in Primary Aldosteronism
Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2019Background:Primary aldosteronism is the most common causes of secondary hypertension. Patients suffering from this clinical syndrome have an increased cardiovascular risk and target organ damage. Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists are the optimal pharmaceutical option for the management of such patients.Objectives:The study aimed to assess the ...

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists in kidney transplantation
European Journal of Clinical InvestigationAbstractBackgroundThe fundamental role of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system in the pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease, congestive heart failure, hypertension and proteinuria is well established in pre‐clinical and clinical studies. Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists are among the primary options for renin–angiotensin–aldosterone ...

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists
2023Abstract Hypertension, post-myocardial infarction, and heart failure are the cardiovascular clinical syndromes where mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) have shown a beneficial effect. Most guidelines, while recommending MRAs, do not make a clear recommendation as to which MRAs should be used, how doses should be titrated, or ...

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists
2022Abstract This chapter studies the use of aldosterone antagonists, also known as mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), in chronic heart failure (CHF). Overall, the results for aldosterone blockade in CHF due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction—now called heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF)—have been very ...

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists
Current Hypertension Reports, 2007With an increasingly aging population, the need for effective treatment of cardiovascular diseases (eg, heart failure, hypertension, and ischemic heart disease) cannot be overemphasized. The vital importance of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists for treating cardiovascular conditions has only been appreciated in the last decade. The re-emergence of

Nonsteroidal antagonists of the mineralocorticoid receptor
Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2015The broad clinical use of steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) is limited by the potential risk of inducing hyperkalemia when given on top of renin-angiotensin system blockade. Drug discovery campaigns have been launched aiming for the identification of nonsteroidal MRAs with an improved safety profile.

Several lines of evidence suggest a detrimental effect of aldosterone excess on the development of metabolic alterations. Glucose metabolism derangements due to aldosterone action are frequently observed not only in patients with primary aldosteronism but also in patients with obesity. A contribution to the hyperaldosteronism observed in obese subjects

Recently, nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists (MRAs), which have been proposed to be called MR blockers (MRBs), have become available for clinical use, but their clinical role is unknown. We reviewed the clinical roles of MRAs and MRBs based on previous knowledge and as demonstrated in representative clinical trials.Steroidal MRAs,

3,3-Bisaryloxindoles as mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists
Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2005Syntheses and SAR studies of 3,3-bisaryloxindole analogues provided potent mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists that were selective over other steroid nuclear hormone receptors.

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and hypertension: Is there a rationale?
Current Hypertension Reports, 2004Accumulating evidence indicates that aldosterone is involved in cardiovascular disease by inducing inflammation in the presence of moderate amounts of salt in the diet. Spironolactone and eplerenone are the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists currently available for the treatment of hypertension.
