Maternal corticosterone exposure in mice can program sex-specific changes in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) in offspring. This study examined how maternal corticosterone exposure impacts the RAAS in 6-month old male and female offspring. The results showed that basal levels of components of the RAAS differed between untreated males and females. Maternal corticosterone exposure also altered key regulators of renal function in the offspring in a sex-specific manner, increasing renal renin and
