Aldosterone is a kind of steroid hormone produced by the zona glomerulosa(ZG)cells of the adre-nal cortex which plays a crucial regulatory role in fluid-electrolyte balance and blood pressure stability.Aldo-sterone biosynthesis is a calcium-dependent process,and ion channels play a key role in this process.Primary aldosteronism is closely related to mutations in ion channels.Recent studies have highlighted an intriguing rela-tionship between the unique rosette structure of ZG cells and their electrical excitability.Elucidating the con-nection between rosettes and ZG cell electrical excitability as well as aldosterone secretion leads to a deeper un-derstanding of the mechanisms regulating aldosterone secretion and may provide new insights into the pathogen-esis of primary aldosteronism.
