Abstract excerpt
Mineralocorticoid resistance (pseudohypoaldosteronism) is a rare condition first described in 1958 and associated with failure to thrive, salt wasting, and dehydration in infancy. In the index case it has previously been shown that binding of aldosterone to mineralocorticoid receptors in peripheral blood lymphocytes is absent; here, we report results of the molecular characterization of the mineralocorticoid...
