Summary Introduction
To review:
The effects of the following hormones on electrolyte balance.
a. Angiotensin-II
b. Aldosterone
c. Parathyroid hormone
d. Vitamin D
e. Atrial natriuretic peptide
Introduction:
The electrolytes are an important part of our body. The main electrolytes are sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium and calcium ions. The maintenance of these electrolytes is done by the urinary and the endocrine system of the body. The homeostasis of electrolytes is important for the body.
