Beclin-1 restrains aldosterone signaling via autophagic degradation of the mineralocorticoid receptor to protect against cardiovascular injury
2026-05-21
Abstract excerpt
Cells deploy adaptive programs to maintain homeostasis under stress, yet mechanisms counteracting damage triggered by transmembrane signaling remain poorly defined. Using a hyperaldosteronism model, we examined how autophagy regulates aldosterone-mediated mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) activation. In human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), aldosterone induced autophagy, as evidenced by elevated Beclin-1,...
