Marcadores de inflamación endotelial subclínica en una familia con hiperaldosteronismo familiar tipo I por mutación de novo
Background: Type I familial hyperaldosteronism is caused by the presence of a chimaeñc gene CYPl 1B1/CYP11BZ which encodes an enzyme with aldosterone synthetase activityregulated by adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH). Therefore, in patients with FH I is possible to normalize the aldosterone levels...

Patients and methods: We report three subjects with FH-I in a single family (proband, father and sister). We confirmed the presence of a chimaeric CYPl 1B1/CYP11B2 gene by ¡ong-PCR in all of them. Paternal grandparents were unaffected by the mutation.

MMP-9 and usPCR levels were determined by gelatin zymography and nephelometry, respectively. Residís: All affected subjects had approximately a 50% increase in MMP-9 levels. Only the father had an elevated usPCR. The endothelial inflammation markers returned to normal range after glucocorticoid treatment.
