The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), a steroid hormone-activated transcription factor, plays a substantial role in cardiovascular diseases. MR antagonists (MRAs) have long been appreciated as effective treatments for heart failure and hypertension; however, recent research suggests that additional patient populations may also benefit from MRA therapy. Experimental evidence demonstrates that in addition to its classical role in the regulating sodium handling in the kidney, functional MR is expressed in the blood vessels and contributes to hypertension, vascular inflammation and remodeling, and atherogenesis. MR activation drives pathological phenotypes in smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells and inflammatory cells, while MRAs inhibit these effects. Collectively, these studies demonstrate a new role for extra-renal MR in cardiovascular disease. This review summarizes these new lines of evidence and how they contribute to mechanisms of atherosclerosis, pulmonary and systemic hypertension, and vein graft failure, and describes new patient populations that may benefit from MRA therapy.
