Mineralocorticoides

Spanish from Spain

Descriptor	mineralocorticoides
Entry term(s)	mineralocorticoide
Scope note:	Grupo de CORTICOESTEROIDES asociados principalmente con el equilibrio hidroelectrolítico. Esto se lleva a cabo mediante su efecto sobre el TRANSPORTE IÓNICO en los túbulos renales produciendo retención de sodio y pérdida de potasio. La secreción de mineralocorticoides es regulada a su vez por el VOLUMEN PLASMÁTICO, el potasio sérico y la ANGIOTENSINA II.

Scope note:

A group of CORTICOSTEROIDS primarily associated with water and electrolyte balance. This is accomplished through the effect on ION TRANSPORT in renal tubules, resulting in retention of sodium and loss of potassium. Mineralocorticoid secretion is itself regulated by PLASMA VOLUME, serum potassium, and ANGIOTENSIN II.
