Role of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 renal activity in potassium homeostasis in rats with chronic renal failure
Aldosterone concentrations vary in advanced chronic renal failure (CRF). The isozyme 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 (11β-HSD2), which confers aldosterone specificity for mineralocorticoid receptors in distal tubules and collecting ducts, has been reported to be decreased or nor...
