Usage Examples English
  • Aldosterone production is suppressed by captopril through the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system. CST results are used to assist in the diagnososis of primary aldosteronism (Conn Syndrome).
  • Aldosterone response of several factors from a low base value.
  • Blockade of the sympathetic nervous system on renin release leads to reduced aldosterone via the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, with a resultant decrease in blood pressure due to decreased sodium and water retention.
  • 18-Hydroxycorticosterone serves as an intermediate in the synthesis of aldosterone by the enzyme aldosterone synthase in the zona glomerulosa.
  • ACTH has more effect on DOC than it does on aldosterone.

  • All causes mimic the effects of elevated aldosterone without raising aldosterone levels but achieve this through varying mechanisms.
  • It became clear years later that aldosterone antagonists inhibit a specific receptor protein.
  • Aldosterone and corticosterone share the first part of their biosynthetic pathway.
  • Normal aldosterone level can be attributed to the fact that aldosterone is independent of hypothalamus-pituitary axis feedback system, being mainly controlled by the level of serum potassium.
  • The CYP11B2 gene provides instructions for making another enzyme called aldosterone synthase, which helps produce aldosterone.

  • In adrenal insufficiency, there is a deficiency in cortisol production which may be accompanied by a deficiency in aldosterone production (predominantly in primary adrenal insufficiency).
  • The adrenal gland also produces more aldosterone, leading to an eight-fold increase in aldosterone.
  • A measurement of aldosterone in blood may be termed a "plasma aldosterone concentration" ("PAC"), which may be compared to plasma renin activity (PRA) as an aldosterone-to-renin ratio.
  • Although in normal subjects, ACTH accelerates the first step of aldosterone synthesis, ACTH normally has no effect on the activity of aldosterone synthase.
