Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonist for Renal Protection
Renal Failure, 2012 The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays an important role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular and renal diseases. In chronic kidney disease (CKD), blockade of RAS by angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) has been shown to reduce proteinuria and retard the progression of renal function deterioration ...

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists for Diabetic Kidney Disease [PDF]
Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2020 Ten years ago, I presented an outline for a study aiming to prevent diabetic kidney disease (DKD), with early intervention in subjects with type 2 diabetes and high risk for DKD assessed by a urinary proteomic–based biomarker, at Kidney Week hoping for positive feedback.
