AIMS: Refractory hyperaldosteronism is frequently observed in heart failure patients on up-to-date treatment, and holds prognostic value. Our aim was to identify which factors, either genetic or nongenetic, are associated with refractory hyperaldosteronism.
METHODS: We enrolled 109 consecutive patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 32 ± 10%; 86% males; age 65 ± 13 years (mean ± standard deviation)] on optimized adrenergic and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) antagonism, undergoing clinical and neuroendocrine characterization, and genotyping for six polymorphisms in key RAAS-regulating genes [angiotensinogen (AGT M235T), angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE-240A>T and I/D), angiotensin II type I receptor (AGTR1 1166A>C), aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2-344C>T) and renin (REN rs7539596)].
RESULTS: Patients with refractory hyperaldosteronism (n = 41, 38%, with plasma concentration >180 ng/l, URL, median 283 ng/l, interquartile range 218-433), when compared with those without (106 ng/l, 74-144; P < 0.001), were not different either for treatment or LVEF, while presented with different AGT M235T genotype distribution (P = 0.047). After adjustment for several humoral, instrumental, functional and therapeutical variables, only plasma renin activity (PRA) (P < 0.001) and potassium (P = 0.027) were independently associated with refractory hyperaldosteronism. Among polymorphisms, only AGT M235T (P = 0.038) was associated with refractory hyperaldosteronism, after adjustment for nongenetic variables.
CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, refractory hyperaldosteronism in heart failure may be influenced by AGT M235T polymorphism, among RAAS candidate genes, and by PRA, which may represent, respectively, a constitutive (genotype dependent) and a nongenetic (phenotype-dependent) trigger for aldosterone elevation.
