What is Aldosterone Function and Regulation about?
- Aldosterone is the major mineralocorticoid hormone that regulates sodium and potassium levels in the body. - It is secreted by the adrenal cortex in response to angiotensin II, serum potassium levels, and renal function. - Aldosterone acts in the kidneys to increase sodium reabsorption and potassium secretion in the distal tubules and collecting ducts, thereby increasing extracellular fluid volume and raising blood pressure.
