Spironolactone inhibits the activity of the Na/H exchanger in the aorta of mineralocorticoid-induced hypertensive rats

Introduction: Aldosterone can induce changes in the expression or activity of Na + /H + exchanger isoform 1 (NHE–1) in vascular smooth muscle cells. We aimed to clarify whether chronic mineralocorticoid receptor activation exerts an effect on the activity of NHE–1 in the aorta of mineralocorticoid-i...
