Aldosterone and the mineralocorticoid receptor contribute to resistant hypertension and cardiovascular mortality, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists effectively reduce these complications. Their use is limited in certain populations with a higher risk of hyperkalemia or renal dysfunction. This review will highlight recent developments in extra-renal mineralocorticoid receptor research and the development of novel mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists. Tissue-specific knockout-out models provide definitive evidence that vascular mineralocorticoid receptor directly contributes to hypertension and vascular remodeling, independent of renal effects. Several non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists are in pre-clinical development or early-stage clinical trials. Several non-steroidal MR antagonists have demonstrated preserved cardiovascular benefit with a reduced incidence of hyperkalemia in pre-clinical studies. Novel, potent non-steroidal MR antagonists are in development, although their effect on cardiovascular and adverse drug events requires further investigation.
