- Mineralocorticoid - Wikipedia
Mineralocorticoids are a class of corticosteroids, which in turn are a class of steroid hormones Mineralocorticoids are produced in the adrenal cortex and influence salt and water balances (electrolyte balance and fluid balance) The primary mineralocorticoid is aldosterone
- List of Mineralocorticoids - Drugs. com
Mineralocorticoid is a corticosteroid hormone, which is synthesized by the adrenal cortex Aldosterone, the main mineralocorticoid, is necessary for regulation of salt and water in the body It increases sodium re-absorption by an action on the distal tubules of the kidney
- Mineralocorticoid - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Introduction The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR; see Glossary) is a cytosolic steroid receptor that binds mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids [1] MR is expressed in many tissues including kidney and heart
- Mineralocorticoids definition, function, drugs side effects
Mineralocorticoids are corticosteroid hormones Mineralocorticoids are synthesized in the adrenal cortex located at the top of each kidney and influence salt and water balances (electrolyte balance and fluid balance) Aldosterone, the main mineralocorticoid, is necessary for regulation of salt and water in your body
- Corticosteroids - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf
Corticosteroids are synthetic analogs of the natural steroid hormones produced by the adrenal cortex and include glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids The synthetic hormones have varying degrees of glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid properties
- Mineralocorticoid - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Mineralocorticoid refers to adrenal corticosteroids, such as aldosterone, that regulate sodium and fluid retention as well as potassium excretion through specific receptors in the body
- Mineralocorticoids: Role in Health, Hormones, and Blood Pressure
Mineralocorticoids are a class of medications that help regulate the balance of salt and water in the body These drugs are often prescribed to treat conditions like Addison’s disease, where the body doesn’t produce enough hormones from the adrenal glands
- Mineralocorticoids - DrugBank Online
A group of CORTICOSTEROIDS primarily associated with water and electrolyte balance This is accomplished through the effect on ION TRANSPORT in renal tubules, resulting in retention of sodium and loss of potassium Mineralocorticoid secretion is itself regulated by PLASMA VOLUME, serum potassium, and ANGIOTENSIN II
