Question
How does aldosterone act and where is it produced?
Answers
Aldosterone is a hormone that acts upon the nephron tubules stimulating the resorption of sodium. Therefore it contributes to the increase of the blood osmolarity and consequently to the increase of the blood pressure.

Aldosterone is made by the adrenals, glands located over the superior portion of the kidneys.   Your Comment
