Reduced urinary aldosterone excretion rates with normal plasma concentrations of aldosterone in the very elderly.

Abstract:

:Although aldosterone production declines with age, so does the aldosterone metabolic clearance rate (MCR), and the net effect of age on the circulating level of aldosterone may be less than can be predicted from production rates alone. The effect of age on aldosterone production and plasma levels was studied in a group of elderly individuals at a very advanced age when susceptibility to the impacts of age might be particularly pronounced. Seventeen nursing home patients, ages 75-99 (mean age 86 years), had aldosterone production assessed from the urinary excretion rate of the acid hydrolyzable 18-glucuronide conjugate of aldosterone. Aldosterone excretion was low in the elderly when compared to a group of healthy, young to middle-aged subjects: 123 +/- 19 (SEM) vs. 234 +/- 18 ng/h (P less than 0.001). However, plasma aldosterone concentrations in the elderly were well within a range observed in much younger and fully ambulatory subjects: 14.1 +/- 1.3 in the elderly vs. 15.9 +/- 1.8 ng/dL in the young. The plasma aldosterone concentration was apparently maintained at a normal level by a coincident decrease in both the metabolic clearance rate and the aldosterone production rate. In conclusion, an aldosterone deficiency state resulting from an age-correlated reduction in aldosterone production is probably uncommon in the elderly.
