Primary aldosteronism and potassium channel mutations.

Current opinion in endocrinology, diabetes, and obesity - 1 Jun 2013

Stowasser Michael

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To summarize and discuss data from recent studies implicating mutations in potassium channel genes in the pathogenesis of primary aldosteronism. RECENT FINDINGS: Potassium channel gene variants are associated with the primary aldosteronism phenotype in animals (Kcnma1, TASK-1, and TASK-3) and humans (HERG and KCNJ5). Germline KCNJ5 mutations cause bilateral, familial primary aldosteronism with...
