Heme availability affects corticosterone and aldosterone biosynthesis in rat adrenal
In this paper, we studied the effect of heme availability on corticosterone and aldosterone synthesis in rat adrenal. We found that hemin stimulated corticosterone and aldosterone production in adrenal homogenates in a dose-dependent fashion. Hemin administration to rats also provoked an increase in...
