It inhibits release of renin from the kidneys and of aldosterone from the adrenal cortex.

The result is increased excretion of sodium ions and water from the kidneys and lowered blood volume and blood pressure. Or what you might be looking for is all of the above. :)

What is an antagonistic hormone to actions of aldosterone?

The hormone that antagonizes the actions of aldosterone is atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). ANP inhibits aldosterone secretion and activity, promoting salt and water loss by the kidneys, which helps to reduce blood pressure and blood volume.


Which hormone is most likely to be released in the body when blood pressure and volume is abnormally high?

atrial natriuretic peptide


What hormone works as a negative feedback to aldosterone?

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) works as a negative feedback to aldosterone. ANP is released from the atria of the heart in response to high blood volume and works to decrease sodium reabsorption in the kidneys, opposing the actions of aldosterone.


Will atrial natriuretic peptide lower blood pressure?

yes


Which hormone is the salt and water losing hormone?

What hormone causes sodium to be lost in the urine along with water and helps to lower blood pressure?

A hormone called atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is secreted by the heart in response to a rise in blood pressure and fluctuating sodium-water balances. The result of it's actions (that are a bit tricky but I can elaborate if you require) are that blood pressure is decreased by allowing sodium and water to leave the body via the urine.cortisol


What factor inhibits aldosterone release?

Atrial Natriuretic peptide (ANP)


Where is the hormone arterial natriuretic peptide produced?

in the heart
