NR3C2 and Hypertension: As overactivity of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system is often present in hypertensive patients, especially those with resistant hypertension, several studies have focused on novel strategies to counteract this phenomenon by the use of non-steroidal inhibitors of the mineralocorticoid receptors, aldosterone synthase inhibitors or RNA-targeting therapies to inhibit the hepatic synthesis of angiotensinogen.
