Plasma aldosterone concentrations in chronic renal disease

Kidney International, 1982
The disagreement in the literature concerning the role of aldosterone in the maintenance of potassium homeostasis in chronic renal disease might be partially explained by differences in plasma renin activity (PRA) among individual patients. Therefore, a study was done in 28 selected patients with varying degrees of renal insufficiency whose serum ...

Spironolactone treatment attenuates vascular dysfunction in type 2 diabetic mice by decreasing oxidative stress and restoring NO/GC signaling [PDF]

, 2015
Type 2 diabetes (DM2) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Aldosterone, which has pro-oxidative and pro-inflammatory effects in the cardiovascular system, is positively regulated in DM2.

Alterations in vascular function in primary aldosteronism - a cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging study [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction: Excess aldosterone is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Aldosterone has a permissive effect on vascular fibrosis. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) allows study of vascular function by measuring aortic ...

Twenty-Four-Hour Urinary Aldosterone Predicts Inappropriate Left Ventricular Mass Index in Patients with Primary Aldosteronism

The Scientific World Journal, 2013
Objective. Primary aldosteronism (PA) is associated with inappropriate left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in relation to a given gender and body size. There is no ideal parameter to predict the presence of LVH or inappropriate LVH in patients with PA. We

Demystifying “steroid withdrawal” during remission in Cushing's disease: Is mineralocorticoid replacement the answer?

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2019
Objective: To study renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axis status (RAAS) in patients of Cushing's disease (CD) at baseline and 6 weeks after curative trans-sphenoidal surgery and evaluate the role of mineralocorticoid replacement in the resolution of ...

The Inositol- 1,4,5=Trisphosphate System Is Involved in Rapid Effects of Aldosterone in Human Mononuclear Leukocytes [PDF]

, 1993
There is increasing evidence for rapid steroid action on electrolyte transport in human mononuclear leukocytes (HML). In HML, aldosterone stimulates the Na+/H+ antiporter within a few minutes. Because a variety of hormones and growth factors activate the

Changes in plasma aldosterone level after weight loss by bariatric surgery in morbidly obese patients

BMC Endocrine Disorders, 2020
Background Overactivation of renin-aldosterone-angiotensin system (RAS) is part of the pathogenesis of obesity-associated hypertension. Evidences have shown that weight loss can result in reduction in blood pressure and RAS.
