1. However, aldosterone is also regulated by sodium and potassium levels and more importantly by the renin-angiotensin system.

2. Excessive secretion of aldosterone will increase renal tubular reabsorption of sodium, therefore, decrease the loss of sodium in the urine.

3. Both aldosterone, a mineralocorticoid, and cortisol, a glucocorticoid, are inadequately secreted in this disorder.

4. The decreased secretion of aldosterone will affect body electrolyte balance and extracellular fluid volume.

5. Results Production of aldosterone in the kidney perfusate showed no change in adrenalectomized rats, but it was decreased in the kidney perfusate from rats pretreated with ACEI (perindopril).

6. "Escape" of aldosterone may occur in the treatment of heart failure with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, thus decreasing the effects of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor.

7. The principal adrenocortical products are aldosterone, cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate.

8. Renin angiotensin aldosterone ( RAA ) system was highly activated, while the blood pressure maintained normal.

9. Early Aldosterone - Regulated Genes in Cardiomyocytes : Clues to Cardiac Remodeling?

10. The renin - angiotensin - aldosterone system plays an important role in regulating the circadian rhythms of blood pressure.

11. Further workup revealed a high serum aldosterone and a low serum renin, findings consistent with an aldosterone secreting adrenal adenoma (Conn's syndrome).

12. The use of aldosterone antagonists for dilated cardiomyopathy improves levels of morbidity and mortality.

13. Creatinine clearance was correlated directly with plasma aldosterone and inversely with renin.

14. Randomized aldactone evaluation study (RALES) showed that adding aldosterone antagonist in the treatment of heart failure may decrease 30% mortality of all causes.

15. But the renin - angiotensin - aldosterone system had a very active, mainly hyperactivating, response.

16. In the renin - angiotensin - aldosterone system, the juxtaglomerular apparatus helps regulate volume and pressure.

17. Fasting blood sugar, triacylglycerol (TG), total cholesterol (TC), sugar ferrohemoglogin,(Sentencedict) blood cortisol and aldosterone of subjects were examined.

18. Conclusion Spironolactone had some protective effects on pulmonary fibrosis, and aldosterone might play a role in the development of pulmonary fibrosis.

19. The current research results suggest that there is a close relationship between aldosterone and atrial fibrillation.

20. Renin activity ( RA ), angiotensin ( Ang ) and aldosterone ( Aldo ) in the left ventricular wall were determined by radioimmunoassay.

21. In Addison's disease, your adrenal glands produce too little cortisol and often insufficient levels of aldosterone as well.

22. KC can inhibit the production of collagen and increase myocardial compliance and its mechanism may be involved in the regulation of rennin angiotensin aldosterone system.

23. It blocks that part of the renin - angiotensin - aldosterone hormonal system that narrows ( constricts ) the peripheral arteries.

24. Extrarenal volume depletion is a possible reason for low blood pressure, high aldosterone excretion, and potassium loss.

25. Objective:To observe the effects of spironolactone on right ventricular myocardial collagen in rats chronically exposed to hypoxia hypercapnia and to investigate the significance of aldosterone.

26. Comparing with renal parenchyma hypertension, plasma renin activity increased significantly after Capoten test in renal artery stenosis and serum aldosterone level decreased significantly.

27. Objective To develop endolymphatic hydrops in both ears of guinea pigs by aldosterone.

28. Objective To study the diagnostic value of plasma renin activity (PRA) and aldosterone (ALD) in diagnosing malignant hypertensive arteriolar nephrosclerosis.

29. As well as binding cortisol, it could respond to other hormones such as aldosterone and deoxycorticosterone.
