Bioactivity
Fludrocortisone acetate (9?-Fludrocortisone acetate), a glucocorticoid-receptor agonist, binds to cytoplasmic receptors, translocates to the nucleus, and initiates transcription of glucocorticoid-responsive genes like lipocortins to inhibit phospholipase A2 (PLA2) . As the acetate salt of a synthetic fluorinated corticosteroid, it exhibits anti-inflammatory and antiallergic activities. PLA2 inhibition prevents arachidonic acid release, a precursor of eicosanoids such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes, which are key mediators in the pro-inflammatory response. As a mineralocorticoid-receptor agonist, it stimulates Na+ reabsorption, water retention, and K+ and H+ secretion in the distal tubules and collecting ducts of the kidney.
