Abstract
The kidney is an important target of the renin-ANG-aldosterone system (RAAS). To date, several studies have demonstrated the existence of a local RAAS in various tissues, including the renal tissue. The mineralocorticoid aldosterone is known to play a critical role in the classical RAAS; however, its effect on mesangial cells (MCs) remains to be elucidated. Based on this, our aim was to investigate whether aldosterone stimulation can modulate...
