MR antagonists have proven to be highly efficient in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction, and they are a cornerstone of contemporary therapy. In the past decade, a series of experimental studies using models with cell type–specific MRs uncovered the more…
Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) are highly effective therapies for cardiovascular and renal disease. However, the widespread clinical use of currently available MRAs in cardiorenal medicine is hampered by an increased risk of hyperkalemia. The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) is a nuclear more…
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is characterized by pulmonary vascular remodelling, leading to progressive increase in pulmonary artery pressure and subsequent right ventricular failure. Aldosterone and the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) are key drivers of cardiovascular disease and MR antagonists are well-established in more…
