Abstract
Whether aldosterone activates the G-protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) has been questioned, recently, in the name of Copernicus. However, for G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) multiple hormone activators are common. Further, studies in mineralocorticoid receptor (MR)-deficient systems, with pharmacological GPER-selective antagonists or regulation of GPER expression, consistently show that some aldosterone effects can be GPER mediated.Entities:
