Somatic and germline CACNA1D calcium channel mutations in aldosterone-producing adenomas and primary aldosteronism
Adrenal aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) constitutively produce the salt-retaining hormone aldosterone and are a common cause of severe hypertension. Recurrent mutations in the potassium channel KCNJ5 that result in cell depolarization and Ca(2+) influx cause ~40% of these tumors(1). We found f...
