Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists: Efficacy and safety in chronic kidney disease

open access: yesDiabetes, 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 ...

Aldosterone status associates with insulin resistance in patients with heart failure-data from the ALOFT study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
<b>Background</b>: Aldosterone plays a key role in the pathophysiology of heart failure. In around 50% of such patients, aldosterone 'escapes' from inhibition by drugs that interrupt the renin-angiotensin axis; such patients have a worse ...

Success Rate of Adrenal Venous Sampling and the Location of Right Adrenal Vein Orifice: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is the gold standard for identifying aldosterone‐producing adenoma and bilateral adrenal hyperplasia. This study reports the success rate of AVS and the distribution characteristics of the right adrenal vein orifice (RAVO). The data of 166 patients with primary hyperaldosteronism who underwent AVS in Fuwai Central

Within-patient reproducibility of the aldosterone: renin ratio in primary aldosteronism.

open access: yes, 2010
The plasma aldosterone concentration:renin ratio (ARR) is widely used for the screening of primary aldosteronism, but its reproducibility is unknown. We, therefore, investigated the within-patient reproducibility of the ARR in a prospective multicenter ...

The Evolution of the Primary Aldosteronism Syndrome: Updating the Approach.

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2020
CONTEXT New approaches are needed to address the evolution of the primary aldosteronism syndrome and to increase its recognition. Herein, we review evidence indicating that primary aldosteronism is a prevalent syndrome that is mostly unrecognized, and ...

Mapping CSC‐Mediated Ovarian Cancer Chemoresistance via CXCR4‐PET to Guide Precision Cisplatin Re‐Sensitization Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
CXCR4 functions as a potential cancer stem cell‐associated marker linked to chemoresistance in ovarian cancer, and an inhibitor of CXCR4, AMD3100, can enhance the cytotoxic response to cisplatin. Based on these findings, [68Ga]Ga‐Pentixafor positron emission tomography enables selective visualization of CXCR4‐high ovarian cancer, while AMD3100 combined

Treatment of Primary Aldosteronism with mTORC1 Inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
mTORC1 activity is often increased in the adrenal cortex of patients with primary aldosteronism and mTORC1 inhibition decreases aldosterone production in adrenocortical cells, suggesting the mTORC1 pathway as a possible target for treatment of primary ...

Prevalence of Hypokalemia and Primary Aldosteronism in 5100 Patients Referred to a Tertiary Hypertension Unit

open access: yesHYPERTENSION, 2020
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Primary aldosteronism (PA) was considered a rare disorder almost always associated with hypokalemia. The widespread screening of patients with hypertension unveiled an increased prevalence of PA with
