NCT02871648 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 23

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this research protocol is to determine if the same effects are observed in vivo in humans using a similar approach. Demonstrating that mineralocorticoid acts on zona glomerulosa cells to regulate aldosterone production in a short feedback loop would provide important insight into hormone regulation, and explain variability in pathophysiologic states such as hypertension and cardiovascular diseases.
