Long-term mortality and cardiovascular events in patients with unilateral primary aldosteronism after targeted treatments

Vin-Cent Wu et al.

Summary: Long-term outcomes of unilateral primary aldosteronism (uPA) patients who underwent medical or surgery-targeted treatment showed that operated patients, especially those achieving hypertension remission, had lower risks of all-cause mortality compared to essential hypertension (EH) patients. Adrenalectomy was associated with lower mortality, MACE, and congestive heart failure risks compared to mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) therapy in uPA patients.

Vin-Cent Wu et al.

Summary: In patients with unilateral primary aldosteronism, the coexistence of aldosterone-producing micronodules/nodules may have a negative impact on clinical success, as these patients are more likely to have persistent hypertension post-adrenalectomy. This may be explained by the attenuated HTR2B-mediated PLC/IP3/Ca2(+) pathway in Group A adenomas, as revealed by pathway enrichment analysis based on RNA-seq data.

Association between plasma aldosterone and markers of tubular and glomerular damage in primary aldosteronism

Yoshihiro Nakamura et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the association between plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) and markers of kidney damage in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA), and found that PAC over 550 pmol/L is closely associated with damage to the tubule and glomerulus in the kidneys.

Alexander L. Bullen et al.

Summary: The study used exploratory factor analysis to group biomarkers related to kidney tubule health into different factors, which were found to have varying associations with declining eGFR and risk of AKI. The findings suggest potential insights into the pathological processes driving adverse kidney outcomes.

Renal Injuries in Primary Aldosteronism: Quantitative Histopathological Analysis of 19 Patients With Primary Adosteronism

Hiroko Ogata et al.

Summary: Research found that patients with hyperaldosteronism have more pronounced renal damage, characterized by global and segmental glomerulosclerosis, interstitial fibrosis, arteriosclerosis, and arteriolar hyalinization. These results suggest the potential clinical significance of early intervention using mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists or blockers.

Pathophysiological and Pharmacological Characteristics of KCNJ5 157-159delITE Somatic Mutation in Aldosterone-Producing Adenomas

Kang-Yung Peng et al.

Summary: Mutated KCNJ5 channel plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of aldosterone-producing adenoma, disrupting potassium ion selectivity and increasing autonomous aldosterone production. Immunohistochemical and patch-clamp experiments confirmed the functional properties of the mutation, while macrolide antibiotics were ineffective in interfering with the aberrant electrophysiological properties induced by the mutation.

Maria Fernandez-Argueso et al.

Summary: The study found that patients with primary aldosteronism have a higher prevalence of chronic kidney disease at the time of diagnosis compared to patients with essential hypertension, and they also have a greater risk of decline in kidney function during follow-up.
