Abstract
GARCIA CABRERA, Lizet; RODRIGUEZ REYES, Oscar and GALA VIDAL, Hector. Aldosterone: new knowledge on its morphological-functional aspects. MEDISAN [online]. 2011, vol.15, n.6, pp.828-834. ISSN 1029-3019.
The important homeostatic function of the endocrine system is achieved with the multifactorial participation of diverse hormones which, above or below in rank, regulate the secretion in a precise and integrated way; but those belonging to the mineralocorticoids group, especially aldosterone, are essential because they maintain the hydromineral balance of the body, of extreme importance for the conservation of the inner balance.
Keywords : endocrine system; hormone; aldosterone; hydromineral balance.
