Aldosterone is the main mineralocorticoid secreted by the adrenal cortex. When low blood pressure is detected by the kidneys, we see the start of the renin-angiotensin system, which is a hormonal cascade that leads to the production of angiotensin II. Angiotensin II is a powerful stimulator of aldosterone release.
Aldosterone is a steroid secreted by the cortex of the adrenal gland. It is. the most potent hormone regulating the body's electrolyte balance. Aldosterone acts directly on the kidney to decrease the rate of sodium-ion excretion (with accompanying retention of water), and to increase the rate of potassium-ion excretion. The secretion of aldosterone appears to be regulated by two mechanisms. First, the concentration of sodium ions may be a factor since increased rates of aldosterone secretion are found when dietary sodium is severely limited. Second, reduced blood flow to the kidney stimulates certain kidney cells to secrete the proteolytic enzyme renin, which converts the inactive angiotensinogen globulin in the blood into angiotensin I. Another enzyme then converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II, its active form. This peptide, in turn, stimulates the secretion of ...
