Mashup Score: 23Effect of aldosterone and glycyrrhetinic acid on the protein expression of PAI-1 and p22(phox) in human mononuclear leukocytes - PubMed - 2 month(s) ago
Aldosterone excess can produce heart and kidney fibrosis, which seem to be related to a direct effect of aldosterone at the level of specific receptors. We report a direct, mineralocorticoid-mediated effect on the protein expression of two markers of oxidative stress after incubation of mononuclear …

A 66-year-old man with a history of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and dyslipidemia presented with severe COVID-19 pneumonia, required high-flow nasal oxygen therapy and was admitted to the ICU. He was treated with dexamethasone and tocilizumab according to the institutional protocol. On day 7 of his admission, his hypoxic respiratory failure worsened. His oxygen requirements increased and his Po2 decreased to 35 mm Hg. The patient was then intubated, and invasive mechanical ventilation was initiated.
