  • Title: Aldosterone regulation in anephric patients.
    Author: Ruilope LM, Casado S, Hernando L, García-Robles R, Mancheño E.
    Journal: Rev Esp Fisiol; 1978 Mar; 34(1):33-8. PubMed ID: 208122.
    Abstract:
    The response of plasma aldosterone to hemodialysis, 3 h orthostatism, K-loading and angiotensin II and ACTH infusions has been studied. Hemodialysis, orthostatism and angiotensin II infusion do not modify aldosterone levels. By the contrary ACTH and potassium originate a significant increase in plasma aldosterone. They seem to be the main aldosterone secretion regulators in the absence of renin production.
