| Finerenone |
Finerenone is a nonsteroidal, selective antagonist of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) which is activated by aldosterone and cortisol and regulates gene transcription. Its binding to the MR leads to a specific receptor-ligand complex that blocks recruitment of transcriptional coactivators implicated in the expression of pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic mediators. |
