The zona glomerulosa lacks the 17alpha-hydroxylase enzyme, committing pregnenolone to the exclusive production of aldosterone.|In the adrenal steroidogenic pathway, 21-hydroxylase (P450c21) catalyzes the conversion of 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17OHP) to 11-deoxycortisol to form cortisol and the conversion of progesterone to 11-deoxycorticosterone to form aldosterone |

The sex steroid progesterone bound with an affinity (ki < 0.01 nM) even higher than that of aldosterone to the human mineralocorticoid receptor and effectively antagonized the effect of aldosterone via the human mineralocorticoid receptor in functional co-transfection assays. This indicates that progesterone has potent antimineralocorticoid properties, while its antiglucocorticoid effects were less pronounced. The partial agonistic activities of antihormones in this assay suggest a direct interaction of antihormone-receptor complexes with the response elements on the DNA. aldosterone shows a higher functional sensitivity for the human mineralocorticoid receptor than deoxycorticosterone (higher affinity) or cortisol (similar affinity). Moreover, the very high binding affinity of the human mineralocorticoid receptor for progesterone (k i < 0.0l nM) in combination with the very low agonistic activity indicates that progesterone may act as a potent human mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist that is even more effective than spironolactone (k~ = 5.7 nM), which displays no partial agonistic activity (fig. 4). |
