Aldosterone was eventually isolated and identified in the fraction and was soon shown to cause hypertension when in excess. The autonomous and excessive production of aldosterone, primary aldosteronism, is the most common cause of secondary hypertension. Aldosterone is metabolized in the liver and kidney, and its metabolites are conjugated with glucuronic acid for excretion. The most common liver metabolite is 3α,5β-tetrahydroaldosterone-3-glucuronide, while that of the kidney is aldosterone-18-oxo-glucuronide. In terms of their value, especially the aldosterone-18-oxo-glucuronide, is commonly used for the diagnosis of primary aldosteronism because they provide an integrated value of the total daily production of aldosterone. Conversion of aldosterone to 18-oxo-glucuronide is impeded by drugs, like some common non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that compete for UDP-glucuronosyltransferase-2B7, the most important glucuronosyltransferase for aldosterone metabolism. Tetrahydroaldosterone is the most abundant metabolite and the most reliable for the diagnosis of primary aldosteronism, but it is not commonly measured.</p>","PeriodicalId":12241,"journal":{"name":"Experimental and Clinical Endocrinology & Diabetes","volume":"131 7-08","pages":"386-393"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9983999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
