Herein, we studied the effects of the novel nonsteroidal selective mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) blocker, esaxerenone, on blood pressure and renal injury in Dahl salt-sensitive (DSS) rats. We also monitored intact urinary and total angiotensinogen (AGT). DSS rats were given a normal salt diet (NS: 0.4% NaCl, n = 10), a high-salt diet (HS: 8% NaCl, n = 10), HS + esaxerenone (1 mg/kg/day, p.o., n = 10), or HS + losartan (angiotensin II receptor blocker, 10 mg/kg/day, p.o., n = 10) for 6 weeks. Glomerular and tubulointerstitial tissues were obtained via a laser capture method. HS-treated DSS rats developed hypertension, albuminuria, and glomerular injury, which were associated with increased glomerular desmin staining and reduced mRNA levels of glomerular podocin and nephrin. HS-treated DSS rats also showed tubulointerstitial fibrosis with an increase in renal oxidative stress (4-hydroxynonenal staining). The urinary ((total AGT−intact AGT)/intact AGT) ratio, an indicator of intrarenal renin activity, was significantly suppressed in HS-treated DSS rats. Treatment with esaxerenone significantly decreased blood pressure, while losartan did not. Furthermore, esaxerenone attenuated the development of albuminuria, glomerular injury, and tubulointerstitial fibrosis more than losartan did, and this effect was associated with reduced renal oxidative stress. These data indicate that esaxerenone has antihypertensive and renal protective effects in salt-dependent hypertensive mice with suppressed intrarenal renin activity, as indicated by low levels of the urinary (total AGT−intact AGT)/intact AGT ratio.},
