Specificity

NB100-62321 is specific for Aldosterone. Aldosterone is a steroid hormone which is produced by the adrenal gland. It has a number of functions relating to the kidney nephron including the balance of sodium and potassium, and increasing blood pressure. It is involved in two disorders: Addison's disease, where it is reduced, and Conn Syndrome, were it is it found in increased amounts.

Background: Aldosterone

Aldosterone is a steroid hormone (mineralocorticoid family) produced by the outer-section (zona glomerulosa) of the adrenal cortex in the adrenal gland to regulate sodium and potassium balance in the blood. It is synthesized from cholesterol by aldosterone synthase, which is absent in other sections of the adrenal gland. It acts in the kidney promoting the reabsorption of sodium ions (Na+) into the blood. Water follows the salt and this helps maintain normal blood pressure. It also acts on sweat glands to reduce the loss of sodium in perspiration and taste cells to increase the sensitivity of the taste buds to sources of sodium.
