Abstract excerpt
The mineralocorticoid hormone aldosterone stimulates sodium reabsorption in the collecting ducts by increasing the activity of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC). Being a rate-liming channel the loss of function mutations caused Pseudohypoaldosteronism 1 (PHA1). Despite elevated plasma aldosterone in PHA 1 patients the modulation of PHA 1 causing ENaC mutants with hormone has never been studied. After recording...
