In vivo stimulation of aldosterone biosynthesis by endothelin: Loci of action and effects of doses and infusion rate
Infusion of endothelin-1 (ET-1) into rats increased adrenal mitochondrial synthesis of aldosterone from deoxycorticosterone and the adrenal cytosolic content of aldosterone. The dose-response relationships for these last two effects of ET-1 were found to be biphasic with a maximum (corresponding to...
